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.

Planning for the Holidays
These last few days have been very hectic. Tuesday is my 18th birthday, and I have to pack all of my things and move to a new room. I am SO stressed. I have to move everything and unpack so I can be settled and then turn around and re-pack all of my clothes and accessories that I will need for my nearly 2 week OCC.
I am planning out every minute of my OCC. I have so many recipes and plans to make good food for my family and friends on Christmas.
Thursday night, the staff surprised all of the kids and let us watch a movie. We did not have study hall, and we moved evening activity and dinner up one hour so we could have more time. I did not watch the movie. My friend and I danced around in the lobby of the dorms while waiting for a staff member to take us to the computer lab.
Friday night I was supposed to go to a hockey game, but I ended up staying in the dorms and cleaning my room so I could get ready to pack. I finished my friend's scarf; it was her goodbye present/Christmas gift.
Today, actually right now, I am going bowling so I have to go, but I will write again tomorrow!
