Just Two Weeks from Today!
Dear Friends,
Just two weeks from today is the Healthy Holiday Challenge deadline! Those of you who are in the Challenge, keep going strong – you’re almost there!
Remember, we’re going to select 10 top finishers out of all those who participated and award them with a free, all-expenses-paid trip to our upcoming Dallas Transformation Conference in March (complete details about that event will be posted right after the first of the year – it’s going to be a lot of fun!).

And by the way, one participant who stands out as having done the most inspiring individual and community work will receive a $10,000 cash reward for their efforts! All the winners will be announced the first week of January on Transformation Talk Radio.
I’m really proud of those of you who are participating in the Challenge – I’ve already seen some pretty incredible things happening both in terms of individual achievement and even more impressive, the outstanding community work that’s being done by certain Challengers.
Until next time… keep going strong!
Sincerely,
Bill
P.S. Also, just two weeks from today, I'll be introducing our new and improved Transformation Challenge 2010! I’m excited to reveal the new program which is coming 1/1/10!
P.P.S. Oh and finally, by request, I’m posting a fun little clip from a recent Transformation Talk Radio show in which I shared my “Top 10 Signs Your Healthy Holiday Challenge is Not Going so Well.” (Lightheartedness is also good for our health! =)
Top Ten Signs Your Healthy Holiday Challenge Isn't Going So Well
- Celebrating gratitude with daily Thanksgiving feasts.
- Before picture is best you've looked in 5 weeks.
- Only consistent exercise you've been getting is walking from the kitchen to the sofa.
- Giving of yourself at company Christmas party not a big hit.
- Midnight Cardio; low of minus 12.
- Planning to get in those 32 workouts by doubling up the last 16 days of December.
- All you want for Christmas at this point is your stomach stapled.
- Cookies for Santa... What Cookies for Santa?
- Ham.
- You're just one free day away from trolling the streets of Denver looking for your extra large coat.

Just listened to your top ten! Ha Ha! You give Dave Letterman a run for his money! Ham - that's a good one! Susanna

Classic & so true.
No, more cookies- Yuck.

Love the top ten... :) I am looking forward to the new challenge. :) Got my camera working so now i have no excuse not to do the before pictures... i just hope i will look better in the "after" ones! lol
Bill, if you've been driving the streets of Denver looking for that extra large coat, I think I saw you when I was looking for mine! You're a whole lot funnier than David Letterman and his top 10!
So, what exactly is in those food bars? You guys were crazy last night and I totally enjoyed it! Haven't laughed so hard in a long time. Time to pour it on for a stong finish to strong year. This will probably be the first year since, well ever, that my resolutions will not include losing fat. 2010 is going to be an awesome year in Transformation ville. Much love! > Jim.
Cupcake :-)

It will indeed be the year of Transformation for many. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year. Much love to you and all of yours. Your friend, Susan x0x0x0x0x
Bill, You really struck home on this one. Here at our office we started a "weight off" contest. After weighing in no one lost and most gained weight. I did't get in on the contest for the money that was put up, but I have been the only one that has lost weight. I posted your clip and we all had a good laugh and everyone loved #6 and decided this was most of them. Waiting to start 2weeks before the deadline. Hey! if they start at all it will be great!!!!. Great Blog Bill as always. John
I needed a good laugh to start my day. Thanks, Bill! Tina
Great post lol. yeap 2 more weeks.I'm ready for the new and improved Transformation Challenge 2010, Can't wait :-) have a great week Bill
2 weeks! Sweet! CAN"T WAIT to see the new stuff! And thanks for posting the top 10 - HILARIOUS!!!
Bill, your generosity knows no bounds. You constantly give of yourself with the only reward being to help people. It is a privalege to be part of this community and I thank God constantly for what you have provided us with. On a lighter note, when are you going to hit the road with your own comedy tour? It was magic watching you & Coach on stage in the video!!
Bill, I wonder what has a longer life on a fence post ham or a twinkie?
Thanks for the top 10! I'm so grateful for this challenge and the chance that it has given our family to work together to do good things for our health, family and community. It sure is making me feel great about entering 2010! Our family is facing so much uncertainty right now, but one thing that I am certain is that it's going to be another great year. Thank you for believing in the potential and greatness of the individual. Your faith and vision is inspiring!
Definitely needed a good laugh today. Laughter is good medicine!!
"Before picture is best you've looked in 5 weeks"...THAT was a laugh out loud comment!
Soo funny!! Love the humor!! Very, very excited to hear about the upcoming New Year challenge!! Love you!
Hysterical Bill!!! Marty
I need to listen to your talk show some more. It's funny and educational. Great job. I'm going to share these jokes with my in-laws.
WAIT!!... What do you mean that working out 24 hours straight is not going to be equivalent to daily hour workout for the past 24 days that I did not do!!!?? LOL
LOL...love #1... this has been an awesome Holiday season! It's really helped to have a group to checkin with for the HHC, and I love how you've taught the importance of gratitude and giving of ourselves for this Challenge. This has been the best year ever.... Can't wait for 2010. =)
Lightheartedness is DEFINITELY good for our health and soul. So awesome Bill....I love humor, such good medicine! Keep myself cracked up most of the time :) I have laughed and cried tears of joy during this HHC and have had zilch depression!!! I love this place Bill. I love how my heart feels. So full of love, compassion and joy. So wanting to love and help others. To experience these feelings is priceless.....genuine deep happiness and wellness coming from being apart of this beautiful community and being the change I want to see in the world. THANK YOU. I love you Bill....~Thia~
What's wierd, I have to go put on my workout clothes to listen to this blogtalk radio on Thursday night! Can't wait for Dallas! I am scared and am out of my comfort zone to run the 1/2 marathon, but I am up for it if I die because I am KristyStrong4life
HHC IS going welll! Bill you are so funny! I think you should talk about the HHC that kicked our butts into gear. I took this on this challenge with conviction and later found that this was called "Intentional Decision" which is actually larger than conviction. So huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please read my blog on intentional decision. Love the T family Thanks Bill Kristy is Strong4life
