ARE YOU READY FOR THE INNOVATION 8 WEEK CHALLENGE?

Fall is one of the hardest times of the year to stay motivated. HOWEVER – it’s one of the most important times to put the work in and see the weight loss. In the weight loss world we call it “down time”

A time when not too much is going on. It’s a great time to put the work in to see the weight loss

 We are starting to put layers of clothes on and it’s easy to hide under them. But many of us have vacations and parties that are right around the corner.

 

Now you can do the Innovation Challenge and have no excuses not to stay on program and on your healthy weight loss path.

 Challenges are not for everyone – this challenge is for those who need the extra motivation to succeed

Thanksgiving Challenge Week 4

 

It’s Week 4 and many are still going strong. Even though you may not be at the top of the list what’s more important is you are still losing and still moving in the direction you want to be. Remember when the contest is over it doesn’t mean you go back to eating the way you used to eat. It means you continue on and be healthy from the inside out and work toward the person you want to be. Because there is not an end to eating healthy and feeling good. There is no, “Oh I’m done – now I will go back to eating whatever I want”.  This is it. This is your life and how you want to live it. This is what you decided – that you no longer want to be overweight. You no longer want to feel out of control and you no longer want to be the person who isn’t happy with how you look and feel everyday. You are the only person who can change that and you decided to do it when you joined. You decided that you are more important than the unhealthy food that you have consumed for so long. The food that if I asked you to think about now, I would bet you wouldn’t be able to tell me what was so amazing that was worth you getting to where you are.

Look around you. Look at all the clients that have achieved their goal and who continue to work hard toward it everyday. The clients who are on the list below or the people you know around you. All over the world our clients are working hard everyday and they are reaching their goal. You don’t want to be that person that always has an excuse why you can’t do it. You don’t want to be that person who points the finger and blames everyone around you. The reason we have thousands of successful clients all over the world is because they work hard everyday at it. When they don’t follow they own it and they start again. Clients that I will never ever meet in person but that have reached their goal through the program because they continuously work hard and keep moving forward. If you want to be one of those successful clients then you have to work hard toward it everyday. Not just 3 days a week or even 5 days and have weekends off. It has to be 6 days on program and even on your cheat day you need to be aware that you will be going right back on the next day. You need to work hard to make the right choices everyday – and not just when its convenient for you. You need to stay in control and get through the temptations, the stress and the anxieties that are involved in everyday life. You need to fight everyday for the control to stay on and do the right thing. Why? Because it means that much to you. Because even though it’s hard, it makes you happier to be on program than to be off. Because being in control feels so much better than being out of control. Make it a priority and remember that there are people who feel good everyday because they choose to do the right thing that makes them feel good everyday.     
“A healthy attitude is contagious but don’t wait to catch it from others. Be a carrier.”
**THIS IS OUR LAST WEEK. WE WILL ANNOUNCE THE WINNER. MAKE SURE YOU WEIGH YOUR FINAL WEIGH IN BY SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2016

Thanksgiving Challenge Week 3

 

WOW!!!  After only 3 weeks we have amazing numbers to share for the Thanksgiving Weight Loss Challenge. You are working hard and doing all the right things and it shows in the numbers, it shows on your body and it shows mentally how you feel about who you are, what you are doing and where you want to be. When you continuously do the right things for your mind and body it changes who you are. It changes what you want. You are learning what works for your weight loss and what doesn’t. You are learning how important it is to stay clean 6 days and enjoy AND indulge 1 day a week. When you follow the program you change how you think. You understand the difference between eating just to eat and eating to fuel your body for weight loss. When you stay on Program it can be life changing when you discover that when you feed your body right it responds by looking and feeling amazing.

 

Yes, it’s hard but feeling good inside and out should be enough to keep you on track. Having your clothes fit better is enough to make you continue to do the right thing. Most important – the fact that you feel the best when you are eating clean should be enough to make you want to make the right choices. We all know this isn’t just about weight loss. This is about mentally feeling strong, fit, lighter, healthier, and all around better. It’s about having the control and not being out of control, eating mindlessly and not knowing how to stop. It’s about loving yourself because you feel good everyday. It’s about opening your eyes in the morning knowing that you feel better, getting out of bed lighter, and not being dragged down by unhealthy food. It’s about being and feeling the best you could possible be everyday.

 

We are constantly reminded that life is short. Make sure each day of your life you treat your body and mind the way that it responds the best – give it love, happiness, healthy foods, control and strength. It’s only when you give yourself these beautiful gifts that you will feel your very best and be able to give to others 100% everyday. Because when you feel amazing you make everyone around you feel amazing too.

 

**If you are not in the challenge take a moment and look at the numbers down the list.  Not just the top number but the numbers in the middle – look at all the people that are down 5lbs. After 3 weeks how much would you love to be 5lbs less than you are today. You have to start and commit for it to happen. Consistency is the key. You can’t just want it or wish it you have to do it.

 

 

CONGRATULATIONS AFTER ONLY 3 WEEKS YOU ARE ALL DOING ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!

Thanksgiving Challenge – Week 1

 
ARE YOU READY??????
 
 
OUR INNOVATION THANKSGIVING CHALLENGE HAS OFFICIAL BEGUN!
 
 
GUIDELINES:
 

– YOU HAVE TO USE THE SAME SCALE EVERY WEEK. Whether it’s your scale or ours it has to be the same scale every week.  
 
– YOU HAVE TO WEIGH IN OR BE WEIGHED EVERY WEEK. If you skip a week you will be eliminated 🙁 
 
– IF YOU ARE ONLINE SEND YOUR WEIGHT TO THEA and JOSEPHINE innovationthea@gmail.com and  innovationjosephine@gmail.com  or you can put us in a group text.  
 
– IF YOU ARE IN STUDIO and do not have a weekly appointment you must still weigh at the studio and your numbers will be forwarded to us.  
 
– IF YOU ARE going away then you will weigh before you leave. It doesn’t matter what day you weigh as long as we get a weight from you by the end of the week (Sunday marks the end of the week). So everyone in the contest should have a weigh in number to us no later than Sunday of each week.  
 
– EVERY MONDAY THE CONTESTANTS WEIGHT LOSSES WILL BE EMAILED: For example, this Monday I will email ONLY THE FIRST NAME of each contestant AND how much they lost each week (no last names and no weights will ever be posted).

 
 
EXAMPLE: 
 
THEA – 2
NORA – 2
JOHNNY – 4
BEAR – 3
JAKE – 0
 
 
 
Everyone in the contest will be listed (first name) with the weight they lost each week.  The Male & Female who lost the most weight at the end of the 5 weeks wins the prize of their choice. But even if you don’t come in first we feel first or last everyone who loses weight is a winner 🙂  
 

– CHECK WITH THEA innovationthea@gmail.com MAKE SURE SHE HAS YOUR NAME AND STARTING WEIGHT.   
 
 
– THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL FEE TO JOIN THE CHALLENGE BUT YOU MUST BE AN ACTIVE CLIENT.  YOUR MEMBERSHIP MUST BE ACTIVE THE ENTIRE 5 WEEKS OF THE CHALLENGE.  IF YOUR MEMBERSHIP EXPIRES BEFORE THE 5 WEEKS YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED AND THE NEXT PERSON WILL RECEIVE THE PRIZE. 

 
Challenges are fun and motivating. But to really make this challenge work for you don’t do anything drastic. Be a shark but be a healthy shark. You want to be able to continue to lose weight by eating clean and healthy. You don’t want to do anything drastic or unhealthy.  I think most of you know by now that when you do drastic it backfires and you will end up gaining more than you lost once you start eating again. So let’s keep this a healthy competition. Be a healthy shark and follow your program – eat clean and healthy for weight loss. 
 
 
GOOD LUCK!
