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.

Facing Irrational Fears
Today I had my first session with my new behavioral coach Molly! It was really deep and I analyzed a lot of things. I'm happy that I have her because I know after going from Alisa, anyone else would have been a hazard to my emotional growth. Well, I only have 3 more sessions left, 6 more groups, and 3 more weigh in's. It's crazy how time is going so fast that I can't seem to catch myself. My biggest fear is messing everything up, but that irrational. So to rephrase: I'm scared that I will sabotage myself in this marriage to Academy of the Sierras.
As many of you know today is my birthday so I'm really happy about that. I know with age comes more responsibility. I have came up with some goals that I hope to accomplish while I'm here for the next 28 days:
- wake up every morning
- self monitor 100%
- figure out risk factors for emotional relapse
- end on a good note
- try my best to become the first Yabo!
That's about it for today. Tomorrow I will update you and tell you how my night went.
