Fittest Loser

From Mike: It is great being back at work after having President’s Day off. During my morning mail route, I was stopped with many congratulations and praise for the story in the Daily Herald on Monday.

From Karen: Great work today “losers”!  Wish we had more group talk time!  Matt thanks for the menu suggestions.. Everyone have a great week!  I think Tony needs to include some sort of dancing for us as a group!  It would be fun!

From Matt: How do you know it is time to apply for the fittest loser competition? Is it when you bend the seat of a folding chair like a beer can or when the flight attendant stares you downas she asks for a volunteer to move to the front of the plane so that we can take off? Why not just say, will the fat guy please move to the front for take off?

From Tom:  It’s been a little over a week and a half since this contest started and so far it’s failed to live up to my expectations. I expected to be hungry all of the time. I’m not. To the contrary, it seems like I’m eating all of the time. If not eating, then cooking something, or trying to figure out when I’m supposed to eat next, or planning what to eat. We have to eat FIVE TIMES A DAY.

From Karen:  Is everyone ready for boot camp??? Bring it on..
Tony said he has some great stuff in line for us! BEWARE! Come prepared!

From Karen:  Happy Valentines Day everyone! Remember, the hearts inside our chests are much more important than some chocolate! Lets all smell the roses, and have a great day!

From Mike: I have never been so proud of myself. I have been waking up earlier then I ever have, and my body is begining to may I say… enjoy the routine. My first weigh in was great, as well as the team boxing bootcamp that followed. I am honored and blessed to be a part of something so great. I would like to say a special thanks to the Daily Hearld and Push Fitness for making all of this possible. I have a great support group, my wife, family, friends, co-workers, and Wade (my trainer).

From Karen:  Thank you YMCA for your support during this competition. I am now a member at the Elmhurst YMCA and was there this morning! The water was GREAT! 86 degrees! Who says a workout can’t be fun? Sunday morning swim! Loved it!
The drive home was with a dutch chocolate protein shake. Yum! What a way to start my day!
