And the winner is...
DAWN! Hooooraaaaayyyyy! Cat Call, Cat Call, Woot Woot!
We had eleven people sign up for our Slim New You Challenge way back in October of 2007 and three PNP Girls stood strong making it all the way to the end. It was fun and challenging. It also goes to show that twelve weeks of hard work pays off in many ways.
Dawn's photos can be found here! This is Dawn's awesome measurements!

"I am pleased with my results. Of course there are times that I could have exercised more or not eaten something, but overall considering I went through Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas I am VERY PLEASED!"
I am very proud of Dawn because she worked hard and kept her eye on the prize. Speaking of, Dawn has won a $250 gift certificate, a feature on the PNP website, and registration to any PNP event of choice this year.
Our other two finishers were Jessica and Barbara. Jessica learned how to tackle food better, how to do it during the holidays, while being sick, and MOST IMPORTANTLY she finished her first ever HALF MARATHON during the challenge. Congratulations on all of your hard earned accomplishments.
Barbara used the challenge to push herself further than she ever had in terms of strength and stamina. She is lifting heavier and amazing herself at all the things she can do this year compared to last year.
These three ladies really show you the spirit of PNP. Each one represents a different type of woman: Dawn - a mother getting that body back, Jessica - married and wanting to get in great shape before starting her family, and Barbara - a mature lady with a winning attitude trying to make sure the second half life is full of spirit and activity. I'm proud of all three of you and here's to the next group of ladies starting the Blast the Fat Twelve Week Challenge. Ladies, we had eleven start Slim New You...we have thirty-six of you starting Blast the Fat. Who's going to be my next group of winners???
