Congratulations EVERYONE!!!!!

Remember this is just the start to everyone's journey. No one, I repeat no one, gets the results they stick with in 8 weeks. You all have a new lifestyle, and the more you work at it, practicing healthy decisions (physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually) from day to day, your life is now better from day to day. Health and fitness especially is not an overnight process, do the BEST you can each day, avoid frustration, keep things fun, avoid over indulgence, do things you enjoy, and STAY POSITIVE.

It has been a pleasure working with everyone, you have learned your capabilities, their is no such thing is I CAN'T DO IT, because guess what; eventually after working at whatever it is, YOU CAN DO IT! PLEASE CONTINUE ON YOUR JOURNEY'S, YOU ALL HAVE WORKED WAY TOO HARD TO TURN BACK!!!

Thats all she wrote...... till next time, Keep the Workouts Up, and the Weight Down..

TOGA WEEK 8 RESULTS

Nice Job Blue team who finished strong winning the 8th and final week of the program

Blue Team- 17.5 lbs- .79%

White Team- 15 lbs- .62%

Red Team- 9 lbs- .38%

WEEK 8 BIGGEST LOSER- MICHAEL CRIMMINS- 8lbs, 4.57% Individual Loss!!

The final meeting was used to remeasure everyone's circumference measurements, % Body Fat, pants size, and final weight. Once all 37 people's measurements were taken the group sat down for one last educational meeting to cover "Stretching- Science and Technique" as explained by the trainers.

Last but not least, we went around the room and shared each and everyone's "plan" for continued success. The hopes of the program is that everyone will now have the confidence to decide when they are going to workout, how they are going to workout, how long they are going to workout, make necessary changes in daily life to get rid of setbacks and create support, stop making excuses, exercise in the proper order, and lastly, have the CONFIDENCE AND EDUCATION TO CONTINUE ON AND LIVE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE AND GET THE MOST QUALITY OUT OF THE YEARS THAT WE HAVE ON THIS EARTH!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU ALL, VICKI, JEREMY AND I HAD A BLAST!!! PLEASE CONTACT US FOR ANY FURTHER SUPPORT.

Congrats BLUE Team who came out on top with only one more week to go!

Red Team- 0 lbs, .00 %

Wow the White Team was extremely close to sneaking by the Blue team if they had combined just a few more pounds, and the Red team realized what happens when people gain weight and we have to subtract from the team's total pounds lost for the week.

BIGGEST LOSER WEEK 7- Sharyl Cox, 7lbs / 3.23% individual loss!!!!!
