Their Results!!!

My absolute favorite thing about completing the 24-day challenge was getting to do it with friends! I loved supporting each other through those beginning days of the fiber drink and getting just as excited about their weight loss as if it were my own. My own husband was so supportive through the whole thing, and I can imagine that it made it much easier for me to do with the enouragement of friends and my hubby. A team of people doing this together is definitely the best way to go! I had a great group of girls doing this with me and here are their stories!

Pam is my beautiful cousin (well, she married in, but she's family to me) and our sons are 6 weeks apart. We were pregnant together and we lost weight together! She knows what it's like to carry a big baby too- Sawyer was 9 lbs and 3 oz!! I was so excited she wanted to do this with me. She's a stay at home Mommy too and we live a couple of miles apart, and she watches Easton for me while I'm in class so I get to see her at least 4x a week. Super sweet Mommy who will make a great teacher!




Before                            and                         After
She lost EIGHT pounds in 24 days!!!! AND her husband lost weight too just by her cleaning up their eating habits. That's fantastic! She started out just measuring her waist and hips, and lost a total of 3 and 1/2 inches in just those places alone! She looked fantastic before and is continuing the MNS to achieve her goals.


Tracy is someone I met through friends on a girls night and we just clicked instantly! I loved her happy and bubbly personality. She has a 6 month old little girl, and Tracy was looking for that energy back after having her. Working full-time and traveling on weekends to see family was wearing her out and she was drinking Coke's and energy drinks just to try and make it through the day. She had lost all of her baby weight, so I don't think she expected to lose weight, she just wanted to make it through her day. I sent her some Spark, she loved it, and signed up to do a shorter version of the challenge with us. My favorite was hearing her phone call at 7:45am on the way to work singing with energy and telling me how much better she felt already! Ha, here are her pictures:

                                          Check out them guns! That's what Catalyst will do.
                                                       

She lost 5.4 pounds during her 14 days, THREE inches in her waist alone, an inch and a half in her hips, an inch in each arm  and half an inch in each thigh for a total of seven and a half inches! Tracy added Catalyst to her challege and it just melted the inches off. Get 'em Tracy.


I saved my favorite for last. :) Cassie is my wonderful friend, neighbor, baker, mentor, and therapist at times. I love her. She will bring me chocolate late at night, loves my babies, and scares away robbers with yardsticks- there was a robber too, I promise. I had to do a bit more nudging to get Cassie on board but I was so proud of her for getting into it! She did all her research and stocked up on healthy foods/recipes and made a HUGE committment to change what she was eating. She rocked it! It was so fun sharing this experience with her! Here are her results:

Where did she go?
 
 
Cassie took 1st place! She lost 11 pounds and over SEVENTEEN inches......uhhhh......that's amazing! She did that during the holidays, while baking sweets for others.......I think she had the most temptations on a daily basis. I am SO proud of you girl!!!! We had a great time taking these "after" shots, drinking our green tea and eating banana's. :)
 

 
Really, I'm so proud of all of us! In case you didn't keep up with the numbers, that's a total of 29 pounds and 35 inches lost between us! During the holidays.
