We prefer to call them winners

The results are in… The Day Nursery State Center was our biggest loser winner of our Let’s Get Moving employee wellness campaign held early this summer.  Over a 3 month period of time their staff lost a total of 142.75 lbs (with 14 staff members participating), way to go!!!  As a group, they received $25 per staff member to be used on an item that will continue to promote fitness in their center.  The staff has chosen to purchase a Wii, which will allow them to keep track of their fitness progress while having fun exercising during their lunch break. They obviously worked extremely hard and shared a lot of encouragement with each other to accomplish this goal.

The individual winner was Christine Whitaker of the Day Nursery Hendricks County center in Avon.  We are proud to say that she lost the most individual weight (24 lbs!) during the three month contest.  What I think makes her accomplishment even more impressive is that she is the cook at our Avon Center.  Talk about daily temptation! She will be receiving $25.00 to spend on herself to continue promoting wellness.

Nikki Ngunjiri of the State Center logged over 2,000 minutes of exercise in the month of June.
