Happy Friday! How is everyone’s first week going? Any triumphs to share? Anything you’re struggling with? Share with us! We’re all here to help each other :)

The weekend is almost here! For some of us, weekends are easier, for others they're more of a challenge.

If you struggle to stay on track over the weekend, then it's time to plan ahead. It's all about being prepared and making wise choices. Don't feel deprived, feel empowered!

Tips for a Healthy Weekend:
-Plan ahead - So important to be prepared for whatever comes your way!
-Drink your water - Hydration can ease hunger and help you feel satiated
-Keep moving - It feels great and burns calories!
-Moderation - Don't over do the food and drinks
-Relax - Stress can lead to overeating. Take some time for yourself!
-Sleep - We need our sleep and it aids our weight loss efforts!
-Have fun!

It's also a great time to do some meal planning and prep for the week. Head to the grocery store and stock up on healthy options to have on hand.

Have fun and make choices that will make you happy when you step on the scale on Monday! You've got this!

It’s Workout Wednesday!

Exercise is an important aspect of staying healthy! The saying "use it or lose it" is very true and every little bit counts! I prefer working out at home - either using my walking pad or finding a workout on YouTube (there are TONS to choose from!)

What are you up to today? Can you do anything different to add extra activity to your day (park farther away, take the stairs instead of the elevator, etc.)?

Perks of regular exercise include:
- Controls Weight
- Helps improve or avoid health conditions and diseases
- Improves mood
- Promotes better sleep
- Improves energy

Let's get moving!

Members, don't forget to submit your Progress weigh-in for extra accountability and to be entered into the weekly prize drawing!

Welcome everyone! It's Day 1 and we are here to crush our goals!

With just a little over two weeks left in the year, now is a great time to start a game! Why wait until January 1st to start working on ourselves when we can start right now?

Do you already have some New Year’s resolutions in mind? If so, let us know what they are! If you haven’t thought about it yet - now’s the time to start! Take some time to sit and think about what you’d like to accomplish in the coming weeks and months. Do you want to start exercising, waking up earlier, being more organized? Let us know what goals you’re working towards! We’re all here to support and encourage each other :)

Once you’ve submitted your initial weigh-in, make sure you set yourself up with a solid plan for this game. Plan your meals, track your food and water, schedule your workouts, and make time to rest - self care is important too!

How are you planning to succeed in this game?

Feel free to share questions, comments, and inspiration along the way. We’re all in this together :)

Good luck everyone!
