Postcards from the Edge

Remember the last week of January? You filled out a postcard with a goal you wanted to achieve by the end of April. Well, those postcards are going out in the mail today, so you'll be receiving them soon. I know it's not the end of April yet, but it might be the kick in the rump you need to get there by the end of the month.

Also, since the cat has been let out of the bag as of Monday night, I'll confess that the real reason they were dropped in the mail today is because I will be leaving on vacation this Saturday, and will be gone for two weeks. However, just because I won't be there, doesn't mean you shouldn't be there. Come on, I know how you love shooting the breeze with each other before the meeting starts, right?

As a teaser, here's what we'll be discussing these next two meetings:

Week of April 15th: Learn how snacking can benefit your weight-loss efforts, and discuss how to incorporate satisfying sensible snacks into your food plan.

Week of April 22nd: Discuss long-term weight maintenance and how it can be done.

Sounds good, right? Make sure you're there ready to talk about it!

And lastly, so no one misses out on any hard earned glory this week, here are some of the celebrations we had in the past few days:

Shawn and Rebecca have lost 30 pounds
Leah and Kristen have lost 25 pounds
Charlette has lost 15 pounds
Nora and Michael have lost 10 pounds
Kathleen has lost 5 pounds

Great job, everybody! And when I get back, we'll celebrate those postcard goals.
