Should We Celebrate More Often?


For the 8th time in the history of The Healthy Weigh, we are preparing for the Grand Finale of the Team Challenge! We have been on a 10 week "Road Trip" (the theme of this Team Challenge) and we'll be celebrating the success of our Road Trippers next Tuesday night at 6 PM! In some ways the 10 weeks have gone by rather slowly...in other ways, 10 weeks have passed in a blink of an eye! Kind of like life!

The new program that The Healthy Weigh has created, allows us the opportunity at the end of each 10 week challenge, to celebrate! We celebrate group weight loss records being broken, amazing individual achievement, and the powerful results of community support! The Grand Finale is a time to reflect on the previous 10 weeks and look ahead to the next!

It got me to thinking...What if we stopped to reflect and celebrate every 10 weeks?! What would happen if we were to take stock of the weeks we've lived and have a celebration of what we've accomplished? In our homes, at work, in our spiritual lives? What if we set 10 weeks goals and rewarded ourselves(had a grand finale)when we had accomplished the things we set out to do?

What if, at the end of ten weeks we saw that life hadn't changed... that we were still doing the same things and getting the same results? Would that reflection cause us to move?

Tuesday night will be outstanding! We have clients that have forged ahead and had extreme weight loss. We will celebrate with them and feel their enthusiasm that's contagious! We will also be celebrating those clients who started 10 weeks ago...and are still on the road trip. Even though weight loss hasn't been extreme, they will be enthusiastic too, because they have followed through for 10 weeks! They have worked through the tough times in life...but made a decision to keep going no matter what!! I've got a feeling that it's going to be a great night!!!

I'm hoping that we have a few attendees that show up Tuesday night because they need a little enthusiasm rubbed off on them. They might be looking back at the last 10 weeks and not feeling great about what's been accomplished! There's not a better place to be when you're feeling that way, than in a room full of people who are working hard and making it happen!

So mark your calendars...10 weeks out. Where will you be physically, emotionally and spiritually? What will you be celebrating at your "Grand Finale?" Record breaking changes or slow and steady progress?

If you've been wondering about our Team Challenge, I invite you to come Tuesday night and celebrate with us! 6 PM... the festivities begin! We'll be looking back with pride and looking ahead with excitement! Ten weeks... it happens in a blink of an eye!

Always encouraging you,
Letha
