New Newsletter

We have a new newsletter program from Corporate this month, for consistency across the county. I hope everyone enjoys reading the newsletter and finds it easy and fun. Our local Stroller Strides Scranton information will still be included, as always. And, we'll have a link to the newsletter on our Stroller Strides Scranton website: www.strollerstrides.net/scranton. Enjoy!!

Family Fun Day tomorrow

Tomorrow is our first Stroller Strides of Scranton Family Fun Day. The weather is supposed to be perfect, we have a beautiful spot picked out at the park, the shopping is done and everyone is signed up to bring food, and we have ten families coming. I'm sure it's going to be a great day.

Rain, rain, go away!

Happy Memorial Day weekend. The rain in NEPA has finally stopped and it looks like summer weather is here. We haven't been back to the park in over a month for our Stroller Strides workout and both moms and kids are really looking forward to it. I know I am!!

Just one more week of school and then my DD will be with us for the summer. She's pretty good in the stroller and hopefully we'll be at the park a lot, because that's always more fun than sitting in the stroller in the gym for an hour.

Family Fun Day is in one week. It's going to be fun to meet the hubbies and all get together for good food and games.

South Abington Park

We had class today at our new "permanent" outdoor location - South Abington Park in Clarks Summit. It was awesome! Today the weather was gorgeous and it was so amazing to be working out outdoors. The kiddos were all so great, too. I hope we have a lot of nice weather this spring and summer so we can be outside all of the time.

It feels so good to eat healthy!

I woke up this morning feeling so good - both from eating so well yesterday and also feeling great about our Stroller Strides family and how supportive and wonderful all of our moms are for getting together and committing to getting healthier. I'm so proud of everyone for making this committment.

Weight Loss Challenge

We started our first Stroller Strides Scranton Weight Loss Challenge today. I'm so pleased that almost all of our members are taking the challenge. We are measuring pounds lost and inches lost - everyone got weighed and measured today and it was relatively painless. We're going to have bi-weekly emails with tips and hints and everyone is going to contribute healthy recipes. I know this is going to work so well for everyone because we are going to have great support for each other and also weight loss will be announced each week - what a great motivator! No one wants to be the one that gained weight. I hope we all learn more about a healthy lifestyle and change our eating habits and our relationship with food forever!

Time Flies

It's been over a month since I've posted - time flies! We are so busy at Stroller Strides - having our fitness classes, welcoming new members, and our social calendar has been so full. Tonight was Moms Night Out at Kyoto for Sushi and we had such fun. Our big event coming up is March for Babies - we're recruiting team members, raising funds, planning a fund raiser at TGI Fridays, getting ready to lead the warm up - I hope we can raise so much $$ for March of Dimes, and also have fun, too!!! Everyone join us at Nay Aug Park on April 26th!!
