Roundup, week of June 26th

What Happened Last Week?

Is your stomach a happy balloon? How about a shriveled angry one or a puffed up cross-eyed one? Paying attention to your hunger and fullness cues is a real important step in learning how to eat the correct amounts (and when to do it)! Keep the balloon visual from this week's Weekly in mind when you're thinking about whether or not it's time to eat.

This past week we celebrated various 5 pound milestones: Janai, Kristine and Sydney all reached their first five pounds lost, Paul and Marlene both celebrated 10 pounds lost. Melissa reached 20 pounds lost, and Jody, Nellie and Krystal all got their 25 pound weight loss awards!

So What's Coming Up?

When we take a vacation from our work and routine, we often end up taking a vacation from weight-loss efforts as well. And once that happens, it can be really tough to get back on track. We'll discuss strategies for handling disruptions like that, and how you can stay connected to your weight-loss efforts even when you're far from home.

Thought for the Week

If we wait for the moment when everything, absolutely everything, is ready, we shall never begin. - Ivan Turgenev
