Now, we TOLD you there were some amazing accomplishments coming out of the Life's Odyssey Challenge...now it's time we delivered!
Read on to see just how much eDiets and the LO has helped these members! Remember, this is not an inclusive list of all the members who have lost significant weight and/or accomplished their weight loss goals while part of the Life’s Odyssey challenge, so it really shows what a positive, supportive and motivating effect a challenge can have on you, which is why we thoroughly recommend joining at least one of our Challenge Groups.
-- Heather (aka ROYALGLEN) of the Ship Shapers team has lost an amazing 106.5 pounds! She says, "I think what I have gained with the LO is consistency in my approach to eating and exercise as well as adding the other elements of a healthy lifestyle. The group support for problem-solving, sounding off and commiserating helps me keep my focus over time and also allows me to share what I have learned with others. I love my LO team!!!
-- Jem (aka JENNYJEM) of the Can Do Crew has lost 86 pounds, "I have gained so much from joining this challenge, but the thing that has helped me be successful in my weight loss has been the focus on what we call, ‘DEWing it.’ That is the focus on our Diet, Exercise, and Water intake every day. I have found a community of diet buddies, commiserators and cheerleaders – special people who share their knowledge and their hearts every week so that I can be successful in reaching my goals. That is a magical thing. I have lost 86 pounds by joining this group. I have about 30 more I want to lose, and I know I will do it. But most importantly, I've learned the skills to keep it off for the rest of my life. It's changed my life!"
-- Carol (aka PSALMSOFJOY)reveals, “I was thinking last night just how much richer I am being a member of the LO! I’ve been nicer to myself. I've printed out the spread sheet for the LO JEP and keep a copy in the kitchen... checking off vitamins, fruits and veggies, etc. On the back I write my food journal. Do I know journaling aides in weight loss? YES... but without the LO I wouldn't do it.”
-- Diane (aka DIANEINTN) of the Blazing Sirens team has lost 73.8 pounds! "I love the LO! I have made wonderful friends who struggle with the same issues I have. The support is awesome. It is structured in a way that following the rules makes losing weight your priority. It is also not just about the weight, but about changing your lifestyle for your health. You can learn so much from participating and sharing your experiences."
-- Katie (aka KTFORDCO) of the Ship Shapers team has lost 73.6 pounds and is maintaining at goal! Katie is a former LO Moderator and says, “Many might ask why I have remained on eDiets and with Life's Odyssey. The answer is simple, it works. After all, why should you fix something that isn't broken? I would highly recommend Life's Odyssey to anyone that has to discard a great deal of weight or anyone that has to only discard a few pounds. Along with that recommendation, I would encourage them to give the Odyssey a chance and let the support of their team really give them the tools to make their goals happen. If you are the least bit competitive and you like constant support, join a challenge and by all means try out Life's Odyssey.”
-- Carla (aka DANCESTAMP) says, “I feel that my team helps me to stay on track and gives me support no matter if I am feeling down or feeling high on my energy. I just love the atmosphere of the challenge!”
-- Lisa (aka LRAMMELT) of the Tower of Power team has lost 41.6 pounds! Lisa says, “I have friends on my LO team that I have ‘known’ for so long. It’s great to have someone to support and be supportive of me each and every day. As First Mate of the Tower of Power team, I’ve had the added joy of helping my teammates celebrate daily accomplishments, as well as really big milestones, like their 30, 40 and 50-pound losses.”
-- Vanessa (aka VSCHLEGEL) of the Golden Believers team has lost 23.4 pounds and is at goal! “I do love Life's Odyssey. I was doing a decent job losing weight on eDiets alone, but LO really helped focus my attention on the areas where I was failing. Having the competition to earn all my coins every day really helped control slipping up with junk food and it also taught me what junk food was. It also gave me the power to ‘just say no’ to junk food when it was offered at work or even at home. The best thing about LO, is that you get to communicate with ‘sisters’ every day and we help lift each other up."
These Members have also seen some amazing success!
-- Heidi (aka WINGS6511) of the Healthy Hotties team has lost 70 pounds!
-- Laurie (aka AKA LERB) of the Golden Believers team has lost 66.5 pounds!
-- Tammy (aka RYDUSA09) of the Healthy Hotties team has lost 57.2 pounds!
-- Vicci (aka PASSIONFORHOTTIEBODY) of the Healthy Hotties team has lost 54 pounds!
For this special challenge, the LO will be posting a special tribute thread where current and previous participants of the challenge can post comments on what the LO has meant to them and celebrate in the success of this 100th round! With all this success, they truly are an inspirational group!
Congratulations, Life's Odyssey, and best wishes for everyone’s continued success!
