How the mayors are doing

This just in from the YMCA:

We are proud to say that your Guilford County mayors collectively lost 20 pounds in the first week! Their individual weight loss ranged from one to three pounds (a healthy weight loss is generally one pound a week, although you may lose more in the beginning, which is typically what you hear referred to as "water weight").

How are you doing with your program? Valentine's Day was a challenge for all of us, and now the key is to get back on track. Another upcoming challenge is "Fat Tuesday" on Feb. 20, which kicks off the observation of Lent, a tradition of self-discipline and reflection (Feb. 21-April 7). Maybe this year, we can kick it off with "Low Fat Tuesday."
