And the winner for the contest IS.....

[teresatapp]

First of all, let me say CONGRATULATIONS to ALL of those who finished completing the Habit Former's Summer Vacation contest! I thought that you did really, really well. I thoroughly enjoyed reading your journals and essays. I made me feel good to hear how the "summer break" contest enabled you to SEE how less is MORE with T-Tapp. Isn't it amazing how you don't realize how much you've lost until your see your before/after photos side by side? Isn't it amazing that you can SEE a difference even when the tape measure doesn't show much of a change? That's because reshaping/resculpting isn't just about inch loss or what the scale says. How your body mass is distributed really makes the difference and I'm not just talking about "fat shift" either. Let's face it .... we should all aim to be the best we can be BUT our bodies are not all designed to be a certain size. Heavens it doesn't really matter WHAT size you are as long as everything is firm and up in the right place. Special kudos to Cherly Dodd for sharing your shopping story -woo hoo on jeans that FIT and enhance our female curves right?! Who cares what SIZE our jeans are if they look good on our body and make our body look better?

Each of you will be receiving private emails in regards to how many T-Tapp dollars you earned for completing the contest (as high as $70.00) and remember you can apply this towards purchase of ANY product that we carry (yes, even non-T-Tapp products!) You can also apply your T-Tapp dollars towards price of Safety Harbor retreat too. The only restriction is that you must spend your T-Tapp dollars before the end of 2005. Jennifer is taking care of all those credits so be sure to contact her when you call the office or email your orders.

OK....drum roll....the GRAND PRIZE WINNER for Habit Former's Summer Vacation Contest is: Ginger Breinig. Congratulations, you get to come to the Safety Harbor Retreat for FREE and your receive a FREE photo session with 2 looks - one with workout wear and one with your choice of outfit.

HONORABLE MENTION: TIED WINNERS (in alphabetical order) - Penny Danner, Jimella Detweiler, Cheryl Dodd, Mandy Esper, Kathleen Evans, Marci Mecklem, Kalpana Subbarao, Elizabeth Schruefer, Amy Spain and Kate Young. Congratulations, you get to come to the Safety Harbor Retreat for $250.00 plus room ($400 private or $200 shared) and you receive a FREE photo session with one look in your workout wear (bring SAME outfit that you wore in your BEFORE photo along with another workout wear of your choice)

*if you are not able to come to the fitness event you can receive any 3 T-Tapp items at half off and you can use your T-Tapp dollars earned from the contest towards purchase of product OR towards payment for Safety Harbor retreat.

Congratulations again to EVERYONE...you shall receive private emails with total of T-Tapp dollars earned by end of this week.

Keep up the good work! I look forward to those who can come to this year's fitness retreat....since this will be my last "intimate" one* due to book tour, I am really going to deliver T-Tapp tips and techniques to the MAX. Get ready for a whole new level of understanding how LESS is MORE. Not only are you going to FEEL it, you're also going to SEE it within 4 days!

Best wishes to all,

Teresa Tapp

*instead of 4 day/3 night retreats we'll probably have wellness weekend "conventions" to accomodate more people

Indeed.....I'm so proud of the girls that finished, and proud too of those that worked out but maybe didn't get their things turned in on time. What a great group of gals this was!

Annette.....hmmmm, I'm not sure if SH can handle both Ally and I. [:p] We'll do our best to make it memorable......trust me.;)
