Beauty in Pain Even

Red Dawn is such a caring, loving, compassionate group of people!  I want to commend them on all of their progress and the growth they have made already in the 2.5 weeks we've spent together.  They are all losing weight consistently.  But the biggest thing I've noticed lately is their attitude and positivity.  I ask them to keep communication open with me so I know that they are struggling with and what they feel they are improving on, but what radiates with me the most, is how they are such a love driven group.  They go out of their way to help each other, and me, or the trainer of the day, without any boisterous comments and without any kind of hesitation.  That love is going to carry them so far!  I have no doubt that each and every one of them will reach their goals if they keep up the positive attitude, love, and trust in what we are doing.  I'm seeing them work harder this week even while I'm on crutches than they have in weeks prior. A dear friend of mine coined the terms 'there is beauty in pain.'  And that's what is sticking out to me this week.  There is love and beauty coming from the am team regardless of any of circumstances or situations we are all dealing with.  And from the love and beauty, they are strong and will keep growing and moving closer and closer to their goals!  

I'm grateful for each and every one of you and the beauty you bring and share!

Namaste

  1. Thank you Miss Jacqueline for this! When I heard my name called as a contestant for the competition, I knew it was a blessing. But I had no idea the magnitude of that until I met the people I would join. I feel that our team collectively makes each of us better as individuals, as team members, and as human beings. I for one, like the way my reflection bounces off each and every one of you. I am growing, learning, and healing each and every day in this envirnment of support, encouragement and love.
