Congrats to everyone within this program. Taking on a weight loss challenge over Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s is truly a challenge! The cool thing is almost everyone lost weight and those who didn’t pretty much maintained. Take a moment to reflect on the past 10
weeks. Consider the goals you set at the beginning and the changes you have made to eat smart and move more throughout this program. It is important to measure success in as many ways as you can as you continue to make healthy decisions for the new year. Challenge yourself to continue on with these healthy ways setting some goals for 2023!
