SURVIVOR ISLAND WAS FUN!
We had 52 people who were still on the island the last week of July! I was totally amazed and very excited at how many managed to overcome all kinds of obstacles to stay on the Island. The one that I was amazed at the most went to Curves in Maui 5 times (you know who you are Sue)!
Karen Morton and Elyse Sunderman were the two lucky winners of $50.00 each but everyone got the special prize of getting to keep their Island Girl! Last but not least a special thank you to Karen Dawson for her contribution to the Island Girl attire (specially the life preservers)!

It's Time to Win the Game
Have you ever noticed what an important role motivation plays in the competitiveness of sports teams. Those teammates are constantly knocking each other on their helmets, yelling into each others faces, and going ballistic after good plays. Is there something that we can learn from those guys?
I'm not suggesting that we start slapping each other every time we lose half a pound, but I do think we should look at how football players break up their overall goal of winning the game into many little mini-goals, and what they do to re-focus after every single play. For example, if you wanted to lose a certain number of pounds in 2009, you should break up your yearly goal into 12 smaller monthly goals and then focus on each one of them separately. This approach will not only make your ambitions see more manageable but it will also give you more instant gratification. How about taking that a step further - to weekly and daily goals (working out at least 3 times a week, drinking 8 glasses a water a day, etc.)
