From Karen:  Its been 30 days of this Fittest Loser journey and we are still going strong! I am very proud of all the “losers” for all the hard work everyone is doing. Keep it up. Who would have thought we can all do what we are doing. I had an Ah-Ha moment at Push yesterday. I CAN do this and be stong at doing it! I have given myself totally to the Push process and can see some results. The scale doesn’t always show the hard work that is being done, but its not all about the “number”. This life changing process is so much more than a number on the scale! Thanks everyone at Push for all your help and support and suggestions. Tony… “Special K” thanks you for helping her PROVE to herself she CAN do it….

From Karen:  Any “Losers” want to join me for yoga class? Sunday mornings 930 to 1030? Looking for a buddy or two…Tony has told me its a great idea! Let me know !!!!

From Mike: I was walking down the hall this morning and I was stopped by a student. He said, “Hey were you in the newspaper?’ I said, yeah man, that’s me. He said “Good work man, good work.’ It was great to receive that kind of support from a fellow big guy, let alone a complete stranger.

My employer sends out an electronic newsletter called ‘news you can use’. It highlights all the stories from the local newspapers concerning higher education, school programs and other relevant information. The stories about the Fittest Loser competition are highlighted in this newsletter each week. This has brought many new people into my support group.

From Karen: Well…27 days ago the meaning of TGIF was Thank God Its Friday..and with that meant a weekend off, probably some pizza, time with friends and just a great weekend.  Now, the meaning of TGIF has totally changed….Friday is a day of thought, a day of diet, a day of fitness, a day of “last chance workout”  before the dreaded Saturday morning visit with Brunella (the scale, we named her) and BOOT CAMP.  So for all not in a situation like I am, just continue your TGIF life and enjoy..but for now….no more TGIF for Me!!!!
