Weight Loss Blog

The Weight Loss Blog offers news and information about nutrition and fitness as well as actual weight loss success stories as told by students at Wellspring Academies, formerly Academy of the Sierras, the first boarding school for overweight teens. WSA is part of Wellspring, which also runs Wellspring weight loss camps.

The Blog started with entries by 15-year-old Jahcobie who graduated from WSA after losing 176 pounds in seven months. Then Brooke, a 17-year-old from Prescott, Arizona, took over. Our latest student blogger was Melissa, a 17-year-old from Orange County, California. Melissa recently graduated and we wish her success and she continues down her path as a "long-term weight controller."

Andy D. a 17-year-old student at Wellspring Academy spent a few months sharing his adventures in weight loss, healthy eating, and fitness fun with us before he graduated the program in June.

Now we'll continue to update you with news and information about weight lose, healthy living, and childhood obesity. We'll have a new WSA student share their stories with us beginning in the Fall.

Wellspring programs are the most effective weight loss solutions for teens available today. But don't let us tell you. Let Andy, Melissa, Brooke, and Jahcobie tell you. Read about their journeys toward successful weight management in their own words.

Self Satisfaction and Setting Attainable Goals

I was in the sick room for most of the day, so nothing really good or bad happened. Well I got to evaluate myself because I was feeling a little depressed that I couldn't see a difference between myself. It just made me sad that everyone else could see a difference from the pictures but me. I guess there comes a time in everyone's life as a long-term weight controller where they need to have self satisfaction. (Self Satisfaction - the feeling you have when you are satisfied with yourself) I need to find a medium that will make me happy without making me feel down one myself in anyway. I need to be satisfied with my accomplishments and be happy that I have lost 143 pounds in less then a half of a year.

So what does in take to get self satisfaction? By making attainable goals that a short term and long term. So like yesterday how I put up many goal that I had for the last 2 months those are all attainable. So I'll close this with my last 2 personal commitment statement:
recent - Learning to love Jahcobie one day at a time
before - I think I can, I know I can, I will
