I wanted to start this topic to help us encourage one another. My hope is this can be a place where someone can give you a shout out for something good you did, lost weight, healthier choices, etc. Some of us are encouraged when it's publicly acknowledged, so I felt this might be a good place to encourage one another.

I want to start out by giving a HUGE shout out to Heather Bright! Heather has been a workout ninja! She has been working out twice a day even! On Friday, her day off, she met her accountability partner at the Yorktown Y PRIOR to coming to a 6:45am class at the Downtown Y! That's dedication! And it's paying off! Heather is looking fit and I think she's feeling good. Way to go Heather!!!

    Shout out to Beka for getting some employees started with Cross Fit! She's been excited about Cross Fit and has been able to share that enthusiasm and get others to at least try it! Way to go Beka!

    Also a Shout Out to Dorothy Douglass! You've shared that it's been hard getting started in working out consistently. I saw your car at Studio 22 Saturday morning so Kudos to you for keeping it up!!! Way to go!!!

    Shout out to Terry Crabtree in Customer Support! He and his dad were walking after work on a beautiful day earlier in the week.

    Way to go Terry!

    Shout out to Dorothy Douglass! She is working so diligently! I love that Dorothy understands its about getting healthy, not just a number on the scale.

    She is always talking about being more mindful, and changing her habits for the long haul - I love it! Keep it up!!

    Thanks for the shouts, peeps! I need them! Just looking at my fitness "reports" on MFP, and I need to ramp it up! Can't keep ambling along. Age 52 (physically) means I need to step it up. No weight loss for a while; that's gotta mean I need to change something - either they way I'm eating (uh-oh, it's ice cream season already!), or ramp up the exercise more frequently.

    I'm gonna try a 5:30a cardio workout in the morning. Pray for me. First that I get up. Second that I stay up, and third, that I don't throw up! :)
