Committed to ‘Healthy and Well in 2012′

So, with the support of the Z94 team, we decided to kick off 2012 with a new campaign “Healthy and Well in 2012.”

We also selected 5 dedicated listeners to join me in this challenge. The 5 lucky ones were selected by a panel of judges. Here are the people who made a pledge with me to turn their lives around and live healthier, happier lives.

Nancy Mace
Here I am. I am in this to get healthier and to lose some weight as well. I have abused my body long enough. I quit smoking 2 years ago and felt so good about that I decided to continue on my journey to get even healthier.
Kelly from Lawton
Kelly wants to lose weight and quit smoking. When I read that she wanted to quit smoking I told her I wanted to do everything I could to help her. She is outgoing, happy and independent.
Jonathan (our only male) from Lawton
Jonathan says he wants to lose weight and feel better. We'll get to know more about Jonathan during the next 90 days. I'm thinking he might be military.
Lori is from Lawton
Lori said she is a fun loving, easy going and willing to try new things. She wanted to learn to live a better, healthier life for herself and for her family. “No more sitting on the sidelines of my life!”
Amy from Geronimo
Amy is a single Mom and has decided to get healthy for her kids sake. She stated she just wanted to like to look in the mirror and be happy with what she sees and be at a healthy weight again.
Sheryl from Fletcher
Sheryl says she would love to be healthier for her kids. She is an outgoing person, easy to get along with. She is willing to jump in and help anyone in need. She says that she has been putting others before herself and this is the first time she has really done something for herself.

So, Let the Challenge Begin

I am looking forward to getting to know our challengers over the next 90 days. We did our initial health assessments and are now on the journey to a healthier lifestyle. We’ll share more of their stories and challenges as we continue our journey into "Healthy and Well in 2012."

Monday is our first weigh in day! We've done Zumba, Step Aerobics, and more. The Lawton Family YMCA has a huge schedule of classes to fit just about anyone's schedule. I want to try water aerobics next except that whole bathing suit thing scares me. They also have a full fitness center, two pools, racquet ball courts and more! You can even work with one of their personal trainers. Willow Park Health
