When you are working to lose weight (whether 10, 20, even 100+ pounds), it helps to know there are others who have gone before you, fought the good fight, and had success.

 

What’s even more inspiring is when those successful people have REMAINED successful and are still in the {fitness and eating right} trenches every day.

 

There are many inspiring stories available on the web. Here are just two sites that I highly recommend. These two girls, Andie and Taralynn, have each lost massive amounts of weight…the right way…eating healthy foods and exercising.

Their websites have lots of great tips, recipes, and motivation. Get to know them. You may see bits of yourself in their story.

Does health mean fitting into your jeans from high school? Does it mean having the energy to coach your son’s soccer team? Does it mean no longer having to take medication? Does it mean having more self-confidence?

Certainly “health” can be defined in many ways. Here at BodSchool, we are curious to hear your definitions.

From August 11 until 11:59 PM (CST) on Sunday, August 21, we are looking for your answer to the question: How do you define “health”? The catch? You have to answer in 10 words or fewer.

On Monday, August 22, all submissions will be posted here on the BodSchool blog and subjected to a vote. The top three answers (based on percentage) will win the following Tuition Waivers:

1st Place: 3 free BodSchool classes* or 20% off tuition (September class or FlexPass)
2nd Place: 2 free BodSchool classes* or 15% off tuition (September class or FlexPass)
