Group/Challenge Weigh In StatsThe groups and challenges to me are the heart of buddy slim.

Wonder Women - 33.9lbs

Wild Cats - 27lbs

Rockstars - 18.4

Fitness Fanatics - 18lbs

Longest Loser - 15.2lbs with 18 people remaining and a monthly total of 114.8lbs! WOW!!

Evangelist TipAs a Personal Trainer…here’s a little tip from me to you

Do you lead a busy week? Have trouble fitting in time for meals? Dedicate ONE day out of the week and pre-make healthy “TV” dinners and toss them in the freezer! If it’s already made, measured to your portions, and all you need to do is heat….wouldn’t you be more likely to stick to your eating plan? You could get together with a girlfriend and cook together…it would be much more fun and the time will fly by.

Keep looking forward everyone! Work towards your victory….keep logging into buddy slim to get and give support….But most of all, keep celebrating your successes and leave the past where it belongs Michelle
