New Year Weight Loss Challenge Winners

Personal attention from a coach, dedication, and perseverance helped three of the New Year Weight Loss Challenge participants come out on top of this contest to lose the most weight. 
New Year Weight Loss Challenge Winner Colleen Mathias with personal trainer Michelle Manjak

Colleen Mathias won the challenge with a total loss of 11.6 pounds. Aside from winning, she wanted to return to her pre-pregnancy weight and fitness level. Colleen worked with personal trainer Michelle Manjak. "Michelle knows when to push and when to back off," said Colleen. "She's very motivating, but in a non-threatening way!"

Michelle wasn't surprised at Colleen's success. "Colleen understands how to eat. She chooses clean, non-processed, real food. She was committed and did all the workouts, but didn't over-train." Michelle explained that over-training occurs when people work less efficiently and effectively, training longer with less effort instead of shorter with maximum effort. 

Stephanie Thompson won second place with a 9.6 pound weight loss, followed closely by Ashley Edwards with 8.8 pounds lost. Both Stephanie and Ashley trained with personal trainer Raquel "Rocky" Herron.
