was organized at the last minute. When we saw how many people wanted to learn more about healthy living and losing weight, we put a mailing list together and sent out daily emails to these folks. We offered tips, encouragement, and pointed them in the right direction to better living. As weeks and months went by, the reports we got back were astounding. We received email after email from people who lost weight guided by what they learned in the â90-Day Fitness Challenge.â Not only did the pounds drop, but many of these wonderful people experienced other life changesâsome quit smoking, some mended their marriages, and others gained the courage to pursue lifelong dreams.
At the end of 90 days, we had a finale party sponsored by several local businesses. It was amazing to see the transformation of the people who had attended the initial event three months earlier. Those who had come to that first meeting depressed were now excited. Those who were unhealthy were now healthy. Those who felt tired, sluggish, and unmotivated were now energized, inspired, and motivated. It was an emotional and powerful experience for us, far beyond what words can say. These beautiful people reminded us of our own transformation.
We knew that God wanted to get this message out to more than just those folks, so we got involved with online communities, churches, corporations, and other organizations all across the United States.
Not only that, but in the last year, we especially were encouraged to motivate families. We have seen the dangers of childhood obesity and the damage excess weight can cause kids and their families. We witnessed the effects of poor nutrition in our own family before our transformation. We believe in the power of families to create a home that is healthy, happy, and fit. We have a heartfelt empathy for families who want to transform their unhealthy, sedentary lifestyles into positive, healthy ones, and we want to walk with them on their journey.
We have been blessed to be a part of giving people a chance to reclaim their life by bettering their health. And we have been blessed by seeing many wonderful changes in our own family as we have taken the path to better health. We hope to do the same for you with this book, which we have based on our first book, The 90-Day Fitness Challenge.
The Amazing Fitness Adventure for Your Kids will show you how to transform your life and live your dreams of being a healthy, happy, and more fit family. This book is divided into two parts.
Part 1 includes seven chapters that teach fundamentals of being healthy, such as
â¢Â how important it is to dream of having a healthy family
â¢Â why itâs necessary to monitor our childrenâs health and weight
â¢Â how we must lead the journey as parents
â¢Â how to eat better and exercise more
â¢Â how to maintain good health in the middle of lifeâs busyness
â¢Â how to use basic life-changing principles to jump-start your way into the â90-Day Challenge.â
In Part 2 of the book, we will walk together with you through 90 days of your familyâs journey to better health by offering inspiration, motivation, and practical life skills through our daily challenge. These challenges should be read together as a family.
We will include stories from our own lives, weight-management skills and tips learned from our experience on the show, and motivational weight-loss stories of those who have been inspired by our success.
This book is not a diet plan. It is about making a lifestyle change. This book is relevant to families wherever they fall on the health barometer. If you or your children are not overweight and you are fairly healthy, this book is still a great tool to maintain those good habits in your home (and youâll be surprised what more you can learn!). If you or your children need some help making better health choices, this book will teach you how you can make those
