Hello – Happy Day 1
Is anyone Excited? Nervous? A little bit of both?!?!
1. Topic: Starting Weight
So, In a moment, you will tell the group where you weighed this morning. We are going to embrace where we are starting fully.
- It is where we are starting – not where we are staying
- Most of us have gotten here in secret – putting up a front of confidence – pretending
- That ends here and now
- We are no longer
- THERE IS NO PLACE FOR SHAME
- That which we keep in darkness/secret controls us
- Most of us have hidden our weight, putting on our pretend face
- Hang out with me long enough, and I will convince you that you can do anything
- But it is not enough for me to say it – life and death are in the power of YOUR tongue.
- Your brain only knows what you tell it; you have to tell it where you are going.
- Your feelings will always lead you away from your goals
- Have to speak it and keep speaking it until you believe it
- Today is the start of a brand new chapter – a brand new future
- You are writing your next chapter; what do you want to do, and how will you do it? Your choices today determine your tomorrow.
- Not time to defend yourself
- Not time to put yourself down for where you are
- You will never hate yourself or the body you want
- Over the next six months, you are going to get out what you put in
- We are going to work on developing success habits that you will have in your toolbox for the rest of your life
2. YOU ARE ABOUT TO MAKE YOUR DECLARATION
- Again, life and death are in the power of your tongue
- What you say matters
- We are going to be making a lot of changes. Why? Because change is required to get a change…PERIOD!
- This is the moment for many of you you will look back and say, this is the day EVERYTHING CHANGED!
- If you are struggling with believing right now, you can borrow my belief from the beginning.
Give an Example of a Declaration – what are your intentions?
“My name is ______________, I weigh in at____lb, and today is the first day of the rest of my life. I am committed to myself, my coach, and my castmates; I am fully committed to transforming my body, mind, and heart into the best version of myself. So that the rest of my life is truly the best of my life. I am done with excuses. I am going all in, dedicating everything to this and making myself a priority. Quitting is NOT AN OPTION. So, I am excited to do the easy and hard work. LET’S GO!
Have the cast review the declaration (pick an order; it will rotate every week)
3. Motivation/Encouragement
Yes, so incredible. Now, I want you to write this down, put it in a place where you can see it, look at it, and be reminded of it
- During these next 12 weeks, we will experience moments of laughter, triumph, smiles, and tears, moments of feeling defeated, wanting to quit, and facing things we haven’t looked at in years/decades. We are leaving no stone unturned, leaning into the hard, and being here to get results to change your life.
- Over these next 24 weeks, it is not my job to be your friend; it is my job to be your coach. I WILL Say something you do not agree with, Good!!
- Because if we agreed on everything, we would be in the same spot, welcoming the difference, the change.
- We are no longer hoping for results; we are putting in the work and going after those results!!!
