Biggest Losers Of Carillon's RFL team

Hi losers!!! I've had a great response to our club joining the RFL team.

Relay for Life event is Friday, March 27th (teacher workday). Event starts at 6:00 p.m.

I've suggested that we do not do school fundraisers and that everyone who joins the team just ask family and friends to donate online. Makes it much easier and everything you need to send a donation letter to everyone you know is available on line for you.

On Tuesday's meeting Feb. 3rd 3:30 ish we can have the computer on and you will have the opportunity to register yourself then. I am asking for a small donation on this day to cover the Registration cost of $100.00. Remember it goes toward our team total. Thank you!

I can't think of a better way to get exercise than walking for as little or as much as you would like for the 18 hours... for a great cause. What fun we will have.

We can fill our coolers with healthy snacks and drinks and enjoy each others company! No schedules just come out and walk when ever you can!

Thank you for your support!

If you do not get weighted in tomorrow then we will have to have you weight in the following Thursday. If I am not there right at 8:00 please weight in with Debbie.

See you then!

Second weight in:

See you this morning at 8:00 a.m. for your second weigh in!!!
Congratulations on making it through your first week. That's the toughest!!!

Dolly's Tips!

• Take a 10-30 Min. walk every day. And while you walk, Smile – it is the ultimate anti-depresent.

• When yo wake up in the morning, complete this sentence, “My goal today is ________.” (i.e., No sweets, take the stairs, eat less, etc.).

• Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
• Drink green tea and plenty of water.
• Eat more of the “6 healthiest foods” – blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, avocados, almonds / walnuts.
• Get at least 8 hours of sleep each night – not getting enough sleep has been linked to weight gain.
• Each night before you go to sleep, complete this sentence, “Today I accomplished ________________.” (Even if you did not reach your morning goal, find something that you did that was good for you or that you are proud of).

Weight In

We weighed in today. If you left the meeting early I will make myself available to meet you at 8:00 a.m. Friday morning (tomorrow) to weigh you in.

Did you know????

Basic Principles:

The body has the ability to repair itself and, like a finely tuned instrument, performs more effectively when it is properly conditioned. This conditioning is best achieved through a program of regular exercise and proper nutrition, which benefit both the body's musclo-skeletal system and the cardio-vascular-pulmonary system.

With REGULAR exercise, your bones, especially the bones in your joints and spinal column, rebuild and repair themselves as they should. Without exercise they can become thin and brittle, a condition known as osteoporosis.

WITHOUT exercise, FAT displaces muscle, and muscles can become smaller and weaker. You gain weight more easily because FAT burns calories less readily than muscle does. Added weight puts additional stress on your heart and lungs, and on the weight bearing joints of the knee, hips, ankles and feet.

When you do strength training, you reduce FAT tissue while building muscle and bone. Muscle is heavier than fat but takes up less space (because muscle is denser), so often you will maintain weight while reducing body measurements. Strong muscles help protect your joints and spinal column while improving your posture, balance and body image.

Aerobic exercise not only strengthens your bones and muscles, it also strengthens your heart and helps you maintain you lung capacity. It can slow or prevent the buildup of cholesterol plaque in your veins and arteries and helps fight off hardening of the arteries by keeping them flexible. This reduces the risks of high blood pressure and heart disease. Finally, sustained aerobic exercise can help to control Type 2 Diabetes and helps increase the production of human growth hormone.

Sustained exercise increases your metabolic rate, so that you burn more calories not only during exercise, but for several hours after you've stopped. As you strengthen and enlarge your muscles, they will burn more calories even when you are at rest... SWEET!!! ;)
