Members are asked to post on a bulletin board a positive change then have made. They also started a contest to see who can lose the most weight by Labor Day. Whoever wins, wins $200 worth of spa treatments. I really could use some massage so I entered.
 
Whatever a gym can do to motivate is good. The best gyms have loads of motivators. I am working on that a bit for our gym, the '8240' club (its elevation!). They play a lot of poorly chosen music and seem so depressed most of the time, that the serious among us have to create our own 'atmosphere'.
 
Good luck, Ellen! :)

I'm not sure which I like better, your avatar pic (reminds me of my kitty) or your profile pic. I would love to meet Chatterton!
 
Thanks guys. So far, on my scale at home, I lost 4 lbs. but on that darn gym scale (one of those doctor's balance scales, I've lost 2 1/4. But a loss is a loss. And it keeps me motivated.

I think the staff is just supposed to post them, but I've been forgeting to look.:shakehead
 
he he. that was cute.

sounds like you don't need too. hey I will have my bike tomorrow. All my life, I have felt like I might get hit by a car. hope I don't. Traffic makes me nervous but I am going to give it a try anyway. JB said this morning, just don't run over stuff and check your tire pressures before every ride. Striving for a better butt.

Oh, an speaking of beer, I have decided my body needs it. I gave it up and gained. restarted it and lost five.
 
I thought beer was one of the major food groups? Isn't barley good for you?
