Happy Friday everyone and I wish you all a very happy Thanksgiving. Even in all the chaos of the past 18 months, I\u2019m sure you all have something to be thankful for. Take some time this weekend to rest, relax and reflect on the positive things in your life.<\/p>\n

Thank you for continuing to submit your weekly progress reports on Mondays. Congratulations to this week\u2019s winner, Trish Blondin<\/strong> who won a gift card to Winners\/Home Sense. \u00a0NOTE:<\/strong> It\u2019s very important to submit your report next week (because of the holiday, due date is Tuesday), especially if you participated in the Walk to Harrison Challenge<\/strong>. Only those that submit their forms (whether they completed the challenge or not) will be entered to win some amazing prizes including the grand prize of a night\u2019s accommodation at the Harrison Hot Springs Hotel.<\/p>\n

And keep walking as there is still another three weeks to go in the Walk to Whistler challenge<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

We also started our most recent challenge this week \u2013 Squatober.<\/strong> I hope you\u2019re enjoying it and have started to see some results in how you look and feel. Keep going for the whole month because even giving it your best effort, whether you fully complete it or not, could pay off big with more prizes!<\/p>\n

The BioDiet<\/strong> program is going great. We\u2019ve had three meetings so far and I\u2019m overwhelmed with the amazing participation and excitement about the program \u2013 we\u2019re up to 47 members. Thanks again to Dr. David Harper for all his expertise and encouragement. Don\u2019t forget to send me your updates, questions, or even your favorite Keto recipes to share.<\/p>\n

Calling all bike lovers<\/strong>! We\u2019ve scheduled two bike rides around the Vedder Park Rotary Loop Trail in Chilliwack for the afternoons of October 16 and October 30. Thank you Ana Adamik for taking the lead!
