Hi challenge par2cipants! I trust all of you have kept up with your reading, and are ready for chapter two and "Doing Your Carbs Right." My husband and I have been fascinated by some of the things we've learned in this first chapter; and we are looking forward to the next. We only wish we were be;er equipped with this type of informa2on while we were raising our children. We both agree that, if we s2ll had children at home, we'd be reading these chapters with them. Fortunately, our grandchildren can s2ll benefit from the changes we are making.
If you haven't kept up with your reading, now's your chance. You won't be disappointed. There is too much good informa2on to just skip ahead.
It's 2me to complete your survey and begin tracking weeks three and four during Phase Two. Don't give up! If you do no more than read the book and implement one change, you'll be doing more than when you started.
Wishing you success!
I feel someone cares about me.
Feedback
The books are really good!
It has been men2oned in our late lunch group more than once that your love and concern for all of us comes through clearly.
Thanks for not giving us figures about how many work hours are lost each school year for medical issues that could be solved by being more careful with what we eat!
The reminders are important.

“Wanted to share that our li0le Weight Watcher group over here (we are doing it online and mee8ng weekly) has lost over 100 pounds so far! I so appreciate this wellness grant which has been inspira8onal to many of us over here.”
“Miss Maureen,
Just wanted to update you@ week 10! We have lost a total of 24 lbs here at CMHS STEPS (the 3 of us)! 10 for me!!!!”
Health Screenings and
BodyAge Assessments
“I felt terrible, and was in a great deal of pain. I did not feel good about myself and the way that I physically felt. I par8cipated in the “Polar Age” check in the Fall and learned that my polar age was eight years older than my actual age. I learned that by decreasing my weight by 10% I could add 5 years to my life.
To date, I have lost 26 lbs. (more than 10% of my original body weight). I am feeling be0er physically, and be0er about myself.”

Walking Our Way to Wellness
“This step challenge has really helped mo8vate me to get moving and back on a healthy track. So far I have lost 12 pounds, but more importantly, when I had my annual physical exam a week ago, my blood pressure was 110/70 (and I have high blood pressure), and my cholesterol was also great.” Saturday, June 2, 12
Walking for a Cause
“I no8ce that several of my coworkers are excited about the shared ac8vi8es of being ac8ve, sharing healthy food ideas, etc. There is a climate of lightheartedness. There is more laughter. Whatever people are doing we need to keep it going.”
