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.

Being More Positive

Today was a good day. I caught up on all of my make-up homework, and got that all turned in. I went to Physical Therapy and my knee is actually feeling better. After I got back from Physical Therapy, I went and talked to Phil about getting a job in the kitchen. He told me that that was David Burns' area [the AOS Operations Director] and that I should go talk to him. I went and talked to David, and found out that all I have to do is have my BC email David, tell him that I am a Belayer and that I am keeping up with everything. I am really excited to start working!

Also today it rained for the first time since I have been here. That made me happy! Although, I can't play in the rain, because I will get even sicker than I am, and that will not be a good thing. I am a bit sad about that.

I am being more positive. I am going to have a conference call with Mr. Wright, my BC, and my mom sometime soon. That call will determine when I go home. So I am anxiously awaiting that call.

My goal for today was to talk to Phil or David about jobs, and I did that.

I GOT MY YABO APPLICATION TODAY! I am really excited! That has made my day great!
