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.

Finding Fun in Being Healthy

Well, to tell you the truth today has been an ok day. I don't really have much to say but I'm content. Life is great. I started my aftercare program, well, part of it. It is cool that I can find ways of having fun in a healthy way. I'm going to join a gym when I go home so I'm pretty happy. I'm happy that I'm going to continue to do this even when I leave here. I talked to my boss today and he said that we are going to continue the blog even when I am home.

So I guess my time is slowly coming to an end and it's kind of sad but at the same time I know that I am ready. I have struggled so much to make this time the best I can. I hope that these last 26 days before my parents arrive go smoothly. I'm hoping to not get a rappel and hopefully move up to Yabo in the next 2 weeks. The assignment I have been having to do is one of the hardest things that I have had to do. I'm hoping that by Monday of next week I will be done and can focus on the other things in my life. Well, I'm going to end with a phrase:

Life is a journey, how far you walk is your call.
-Jahcobie
