Julie lost nine pounds!

On Monday night, we weighed in before class to see how much progress we made in a week; Dr. Wyatt sent out the week’s “biggest losers” (in terms of percentage of weight lost) the next day.

There was Julie at the top of the list, having lost 9.8 pounds or 4.5 percent weight lost. Way to go, Julie! (And a pat on the back to everyone in the group because each participant lost some weight throughout the week).

So what did Julie do?

“Following the plan exactly (I didn’t cheat once!),” she wrote to me. “Drinking lots of water (five to six 25-oz bottles each day), planning ahead for the next day’s meals, leaning on support people, keeping promises!”

Looks like Julie’s the example to follow and the one to beat.

(Overall, Children’s Colorado’s employees lost 19.7 pounds in one week. We’re feeling proud!)
