Through 44 people thus far, the Challenge has reduced the hip and waist sizes of all the members by 24 feet (289 inches)!!! And we have lost a combined total of 272 lbs.
Here is a photo of Amy Brown, who did consent to showing these before and after photos… Way to go Amy and way to go CrossFit Enhance…

Some quick hits from the cookout today
BK manning the gril
Pretty good selection for the eats…
Some of the finest grass fed burgers, provided by the Smithmiers…
Yup, guilt free!!! Thanks for the cheesecake Jenna!
Remember to bring a side dish of whatever you please (Cheescake is a good idea). Also if you would like buns for your burgers you will have to bring your own.
There has been some interest in doing the post WOD on Friday, due to the Race for the Cure. We will be having a test out slot on Friday at 3pm. You may also come to the 12:15, 4 and 5p classes and test out as well on Friday. Other arrangements can be made by emailing us…
Also there is a slight schedule change… We will start the grills as soon as possible after the WOD… With the help we will have we hope to have the WOD, measurements and pictures done by 11:30… Bring your own drinks… See you there…

Come get some grass-fed burgers after your measurements on the Post Challenge Measuerment & Picnic Day
June 26th… Register so we can have enough beef… (Enroll as unpaid if you get an error message)
Bring a side, what ever you please, and celebrate a job well done!!!
If you cannot make that day email us to set up a day for your Measure-Out…
This will be the place you can come journal, discuss, sympathize, and just be a community with the Dietary Challenge. Everyone will need support and somewhere to “confess” without being judged. Eventually this board will be available by clicking on the “CFE Dietary Challenge Journal” link under the Special Events category to the left. Also you may use this for Public Refereeing … Good Luck, everyone can do this! 80 82 83 85 Participants!!!
Apparently the comments lock after a month or so… So please direct all questions to the Picnic thread…
Begins this weekend!!!
