We celebrated champions at our REFRESH classes today, " The Heart of a Champion."
Our REFRESH classes were a perfect time to announce the winners of our "Sensational Summer" contest! Ten weeks ago, I challenged our clients to a contest. The top two clients with the greatest % of weight loss for the summer months would each receive $300.00!
It's been an outstanding race. Our winners focused on their goals, stayed committed, and celebrated their accomplishments when they received their prize money today!
Our top two champions are...
1. Susan Mc. with a 12.15% weight loss
2. Kimberlee P.R. with a 11.18% weight loss
Congratulations to both of you for the great job you did this summer. I'm so proud of both of you!
We had so many clients that had great success this summer at The Healthy Weigh. Even though we passed out cold hard cash to these two clients today... many more would agree that they too were winners this summer at The Healthy Weigh.
Our Sensational Summer has come to an end, but champions are being made and celebrated every day at The Healthy Weigh.
Watch weekly for inspiration and encouragement from me and remember to check out the Team Challenge blog to see what's happening there.
Congratulations to all you champions!

The FROGS Have it!
Oh Yes, the FROGS could have croaked, but instead they hopped their way to a WIN by writing some great essays..."What I did this summer." I'm sure they'll leap for joy when they come into the clinic Tuesday and receive a gift of ONE FREE WEEK on the program for their ribbiting effort! Congratulations FROGS, you did it!
Final score: FROGS 6 SUNSHINES 4!
I had blast reading over your essays, Frogs and Sunshines alike! We had clients travel from Europe to LaCenter this summer! One thing you all had in common is that you have friends at The Healthy Weigh who enjoyed seeing you this summer! I couldn't help but celebrate the lives you all live with your travels, your families and friends. You're livin' the dream!
Our Client Dee M. will be excited to hear that she was the winner of the drawing this week. I have some beautiful Autumn place mats and napkins for her to start out the fall in style! Congratulations Dee.
Our final weight loss board Visa winner goes to Cindy M. Your card is attached to your chart as we speak! Good job Cindy!
We have one more weigh-in for our top weight loss losers of the Sensational Summer. Two of them will receive the prize money at our Refresh classes on Thursday the 10th. Here they are:
1. Susan Mc. 10.51%
2. Mary O. 10.12%
3. Tammy L 9.81%
4. Ginny M. 8.46%
5. Mary G. 8.22%

Let's Blame it on the Cheap Hula Hoops!
We've got to blame it on something...because not one of us,(including me) did a very good job at twisting those hoops around our waist for any length of time. It was fun though. I enjoyed hearing stories of hula hooping and youth. It seems that many of you were experts at the sport at one time! Thanks for being such good sports and showing up for your team!
I'm always amazed as I count the tickets..FROGS, SUNSHINES...you tied this week 40 to 40! Here's what that means...you each get a point this week. FROGS 5 SUNSHINES 4. We have one week left...the Frogs are going to take it with one more win, or the Sunshines are going to come through and tie it all up! How will this thing end?
I was blessed to pull out a name of a client who needs a little extra encouragement this week. Martha L. You won two tickets to the movies! Congratulations!
The weight loss board is full of names again this week! Clients losing 2 pounds or more every week of this Sensational Summer! Carol A. You are our lucky Visa Card winner this week! Your 3.9 pounds for the week can be rewarded with your new Visa Card!
The top five clients are keeping the competition interesting!
Here they are:
1. Mary O.
2. Susan Mc.
3. Kimberlee P.R.
4. Brigida G. (happy 21st birthday!)
5. Mary G.
5. Barbara W.
Yes...a tie for 5th place! You've got two weigh-in's left ladies.. KICK IT UP A NOTCH!
Have a wonderful weekend and to those of you who attended the REFRESH class. Have a awesome time of RE this weekend, I will.

Support Your Local Healthy Weigh
I want to personally thank all of our great clients who participated in our advertising campaign this week! You took on the challenge of passing out, hanging up, or dropping off, one of our Team Challenge hand bills. As we have made a decision to put our advertising dollar back in to you...you helped us this week by getting the word out about the best weight loss clinic in Clark County! Thanks!
As you took on the challenge to help out The Healthy Weigh, I know your motives were pure and it didn't have anything to do with the competition! :-) However, one team rose to the top! FROGS...you did it. You beat out the Sunshines this week! Way to come back from the losers bracket! FROGS 4 SUNSHINES 3.
Our Lucky client of the week, winning a FREE month on her program was Lorraine L. Congratulations Lorraine!
Our weight loss board continues to be full of names of clients losing 2 or more pounds per week. Congratulations to our pick of the week, Janette M. Your Visa card awaits you!
And now for the top 5!
1.Tammy L. 2. Kimberlee P.R. 3. Susan Mc. 4. Mary O. 5. Brigida G.
Outstanding effort ladies, it's paying off!
We're walking tomorrow at the WSU campus at 8 am! Hope to see you there!

It's a Dead Heat!
Oh Yea...Sunshines, you did it! You caught up with the Frogs! It's Frogs 3...Sunshines 3! You came in with the answer to my question and were inspiring as you taught us all about decision making! 26 Frogs came through...and 27 Sunshines!
We had to pull one name out of the sand bucket to award a wonderful pair of walking socks. I know for a fact that this Sunshine takes walks and will love her gift! Congratulations Bobbi F. your socks await you!
The winner of the visa gift card will be pretty excited as it is her first week as a client at The Healthy Weigh. She's gonna be thinking," This is awesome,these people pay you to lose weight." Congratulations to Kristen K. You are the weight loss board winner this week!
The top 5 continue to battle for those top 2 spots. Who are the top 2 going to be when we hand out the prize money at the end of the summer?
1. Kimberlee P.R. 2. Mary O. 3. Susan Mc. 4. Jodi G. 5. Melodye P.
It looks like these girls have made a decision! Congratulations to you all!
I hope you'll meet Glenda at Who Song and Larry's on Saturday morning at 9, to take a walk to the Farmer's Market and shop for some great fruits and vegetables. It will be a perfect morning for a walk, and a great time to get to know each other a little better.
On a personal note, It's been a difficult week for our family as we have grieved the loss of 4 Ridgefield High School Graduates. Our prayers and love go out to the families and close friends of these outstanding young people.
Thank you for sharing life with me this week, spending time with great people like you, helps.
Choose life this weekend, choose to live your very best life.

Aloha!
The clients at The Healthy Weigh had some fun today wearing something that said "Aloha." We saw everything from a petite hibiscus ring, to a couple of grass skirts! (way to go Cuppy's, you always make us smile.)
The competition was the closest it's been so far...The SUNSHINES did it again! They won by one tiny little yellow ticket! I guess they tasted what winning felt like last week and decided to go for it one more time! So it's FROGS 3 SUNSHINES 2! Can you feel the heat?
When it came time to pull out the winner of the prize this week...I reached in and pulled out Cris C.! I bet you think the prize is a trip to Hawaii...but Cris will have to see what I come up with on Tuesday. I'm out of town this weekend with my family and plan to do a little prize shopping! Congratulations Cris!
Our Visa card winner of the week is Shirley B. Wow, Shirley, that 2.2 pounds that got you on the weight loss board this week also won you $25.00 shiny dollars! Great job!
And now for the top 5!
1. Kimberlee P.R. 2. Tammy L. 3. Jodi G. 4. Susan Mc. 5. Mary O.
You girls ROCK! Keep up the great work, and don't let up!
Stay with us this Sensational Summer. Look back on September 8th and be proud of what you've done this summer! We're sure proud of you!
Have a terrific weekend.

I Love a Good Picnic!
Bright colored table cloths, fresh vibrant flowers, good food, and great friends...that's what a picnic at The Healthy Weigh looked like yesterday! We served over 50 of our clients lunch or dinner in our beautiful air conditioned building. It was a time to share a meal and get to know each other a little bit better. I thought it was great! That moist, lovely chicken was grilled for you by my sweet husband, Barry. Little did I know when I asked him to grill it that he'd be cooking during record breaking heat ! If you'd like to thank him personally you could throw him an email at barrybrandenburg@yahoo.com. He'd love that!
The bigger and more important news of the day...the SUNSHINES won!!! I'm so excited for your team. I knew you could pull it off. As I counted the tickets I have to admit, I laughed and thought..."invite a Sunshine to a meal...and they'll show up" :-) I also thought..."Those Sunshines, they know how to party!" So, Congratulations to you...the race is now officially on! FROGS 3 SUNSHINES 1
Our picnic wares winner will love her new dishes...Rhonda O., your pretty dishes will be at the clinic Tuesday! Congratulations!
The winner of the $25 visa gift card actually danced across the parking lot yesterday when she found out that she had made the weight loss board! I can't imagine what she'll do when she sees her name as the winner! Pam B. You did it! Your card will be waiting for you on Tuesday as well! You Rock!
And now for the top 5!!! We're seeing some names again this week. This competition is heating up!
1. Tammy L. 2. Kimberlee P.R. 3. Jodi G. 4. Mary O. 5. Susan Mc.
Keep up the great work ...you're looking amazing!
Let's keep this Sensational Summer going strong.
We've got a class starting Tuesday, "Changing Your Beliefs." There are a few spots available!
We're starting sign ups for the fall Team Challenge...discounts are good until Thursday.
We've got more fun planned for you in the next few weeks...can anybody say "Aloha"?
Have a great weekend Everyone!...Team Challenge friends...check out the Team Challenge blog...updates are there!
See you next week!

That comment didn't come from me, it came from one of our clients yesterday after her weigh in. She lost 6.0 pounds for the week! As a partner in the Team Challenge she has a new outlook. Not only is she committed to the program, but she now has a partner that she has made promises to. Promises to follow the program, exercise and keep a great attitude!
She found strength this week when she followed her plan to the mark. She found strength this week when she went for her walks up a BIG hill and ending up running that hill! She found strength in preparing her foods in advance and truly making her health and her self care a priority this week. SHE FOUND STRENGTH SHE DIDN'T KNOW SHE HAD, BECAUSE SHE REACHED DOWN INSIDE OF HERSELF AND JUST DID IT!
I am so proud of her, and I am so proud of all the Team Challenge participants who made a decision and found strength inside of themselves this week!
Keep up the great work...Keep fighting for the strength that lives inside of you.
Always encouraging you,
Letha

Keeper of the Keys
I just finished teaching a four week class, "Life Principles." My class was inspired by life principles that have helped me during times of great change in my life.
My last week was titled, "You are what you think." I read this poem that I found and thought it would be good to post.
"Keeper of the Keys"
You are the Keeper of The Keys.
You are the Guard at The Gate.
Waiting in line to get through that door
Is LOVE and also HATE.
In line to enter is GENTLE PEACE.
And also VIOLENT WAR.
You must choose who may, and who
May not come through the door.
INTOLERANCE tries to sneak on through
On wings of FEAR, or PRIDE.
It hides behind DREAMS of BELONGING,
And tries to sneak inside.
Oh! Be alert! You're the Guard who decides
Who GOES and who may STAY.
You are The Keeper of The Keys to Your Mind.
Who will you let in today?
Guy Gilchrist
As I think about the change that our country is experiencing and the personal ways that we are all being challenged, I encourage you to be the "Keeper of the Keys" to your mind. Choose to think rightly and guard your thoughts. Who will you let in today?
Always encouraging you,
Letha

Turning 50!
I turned 50 years old this week. For years I've heard old people (50 and over) say that they wouldn't trade wisdom for youth. I used to think, "sure, they have to say that, now that they're old." I realize now, they were right!
As I have sat with handsome men and beautiful women this week, in the 50 and older club, I've been reminded of just how great it is to grow old. I've heard comments like, "this is when life gets really good," and "you know, life really starts at 50." I even heard a couple "50 is the new 30!"
As I have been reflecting on turning 50 this week, I've considered the wisdom that comes with age. Some of mine has come with years of every day life experiences...but most of the wisdom I have attained has come as I have experienced trials and heartache. The greatest sorrows of my life have allowed me the greatest growth. It seems to me that the only way to attain wisdom, is to trade in your youth for it.
As I look ahead to the years that I have before me, I am more excited than ever to face the challenges, and the celebrations that come after 50! I am wiser, stronger, and more patient, than I ever been...and for the record, I wouldn't trade wisdom for youth either!
Here's to all my friends and family in "the club", I'm happy to be a part of such a great group of people!

Happy New Year!
It's a new year! That means it's time to dream, plan, and set goals for the new year. I hope you've been thinking about the year 2009 and what you want it to look like.
I've talked to some clients who have chosen a word for the year, already set some goals, and are really feeling ready to accomplish great things this year.
I've talked to other clients who haven't given much thought to any of that.
From experience, I can tell you that the clients who are setting goals and dreaming dreams for this year, will have a year full of accomplishments. They will succeed at reaching their goals no matter what the weather.
Those with out a lot of thought about the year will tend to blow around like the wind, and go where ever the weather takes them, not accomplishing much and feeling discouraged as the year goes on.
Set some goals this year... regarding your weight loss program and much more. Take some time in these first weeks of January and put some dates on the calendar! That's when the magic happens...when you get things down on paper!
We've got some tools for you this month at The Healthy Weigh. We look forward to seeing you this new month of 2009. Come in and let us help you get started on some practices that will help you have the best year of your life!
Always encouraging you,
Letha
