2020 Recap

Many are breathing a sigh of relief that 2020 is behind them. There were certainly sad and difficult days this past year. The loss some of you experienced can not be comforted, and for this my heart aches. 

One thing that did not prevail against us was the trending “COVID 15”. A high percentage of you triumphed beyond customary! Most of you lost weight during lock down. At the end of 2020 you held goals in your hand that seemed out of reach in the beginning of our New Me Journey.  Some of you experienced the biggest health and fitness victories in 2020 you’ve ever had. You purged your closets and said goodbye to medication. Doctors were shaking their head and friends were in awe at your transformation. 

A single gal who couldn’t succeed eating out at restaurants with friends and attending weekly social events saw her temptation diminish. Not only did she achieve her goal weight, but she completed the maintenance journey too. She often expressed to me that the stay at home order was just what she needed. 

A teenager will graduate fifty pounds leaner feeling terrific and proud of her achievement.  

A man and his wife are in better shape than they have been in 25 years. He is so proud of his woman he put a tattoo of her on his arm- just the way he likes to see her best. LOL

There are many bright and exciting fitness stories that happened in 2020. You were so wise to attend to your health and fitness during a pandemic.  You know a strong immune system is key to recover from all sickness or to avoid it altogether. You controlled the part you could.

Our sun has to rise 365 times to bring us a New Year. It has happened again and 2021 is a fresh New Start!

I encourage each one of you to continue your health and fitness journey and never quit on yourself!
