What Happened Last Week?
We figured out some pretty good strategies to handle the sweet tooth now that Halloween is almost upon us. I know you can get through this holiday successfully!
We had a bunch of great celebrations this week, which included a five pound star for Carlye, a 10 and 15 pound star for Alicia, and several 25 pound weight loss celebrations: Elizabeth, Ashley, Lynne and Amy! We also celebrated Denise's 35 pound weight loss and gave Kim a 16 week Stay and Succeed Award.
After discussing ways to get rid of excess Halloween candy in Wednesday's meeting (and yes, there is such a thing as "excess" candy!) I did some internet sleuthing.
Halloween Candy Buyback is a program that will take your leftover candy and use it for a good purpose. That website lists several dentists in the San Diego area who will accept your candy. If that doesn't work, here are a few other ideas.
So What's Coming Up?
Have you ever come to a meeting expecting a gain but ended up losing? Sometimes that may seem like permission to continue indulging, but we'll talk this week about what it can really mean.
El Cajon Reminder: Remember that we will only be open from 9am-11am for drop-in service, and there will be no meeting. We will be leaving the center promptly at the end of drop-in hours to attend a mandatory all-staff meeting. We'll see you next week for the real deal, okay?
Thought for the Week
Most barriers to your success are man-made. And most often, you're the man who made them. - Frank Tyger
