Hey folks,
Ryan is out of town for the weekend, and I will be covering for him on Saturday. So come on in on Sat morning for a FUN team workout. You can arrive alone and find partners in the gym. We do not have a bias against singles….
As many of you know we are in the midst of a Paleo Challenge that started last Monday night. I have heard from a few folks that they were doing great, but then something upsetting happened and they hit the chocolate chip cookies. We can’t always control the world around us, but we can set ourselves up for success by having the right foods, and the right “cheats” on hand. Check out this short article on how best to prepare for the Paleo Cheats.
I also share with you a short quote that came from our Challenge group:

Monday night at 7PM we are kicking off the Spring LEANing Paleo Challenge. 7PM 101 class is cancelled so that we might deliver the required Paleo info that prepares you all for success.
This is a friendly and supportive way to shed some extra winter poundage before summer. Rules will be the same as our previous leaning challenges. If you have never participated, come to the kick-off meeting Monday May 14 at 7.00 PM ready to take your “before” picture (Men, shorts only; Women – shorts/sports bra), get a primer on the Paleo Diet, and learn how to log your food. Each participant must put $40 (cash only) into the kitty, $30 of which will be shared by the winners. If you are a veteran leaning participant, you may just show up to have your pictures taken.
Can’t make it Monday night to get your pictures done, or you want to be ahead of the crowd? Then please come in during these hours on Monday to get registered: * Monday May 14, 11.00-12.30, 2.00-4.00PM, and of course 6.00-9.00PM.
-Beth
