Yesterday we had a special guest at Fit Club, Anthony Hargrove, a defensive end for the Buffalo Bills and former Georgia Tech player. He saw the WCIV ABC News 4 piece last week (on our blog site for view!! once you click on to the site you have to refresh your computer to watch the video) and was so touched that he called and ask if he could come talk to them about overcoming adversity as well as leading them through a workout with he and his personal trainer, Ron. WCIV ABC News 4 will air another piece on Thursday’s evening broadcast, also on Thursday look for a piece on Fit Club in the Post & Courier. WCBD will be coming down to Mitchell on Thursday and I’ll let you know when that piece will air.
The kids of course were ecstatic that an NFL player was coming to visit them. The picture here is just after we had our snack and Anthony signed Piggly Wiggly bumper stickers for each of the kids. We tried to get all 15 “Fit Club” kids into the picture –it was like herding cats 
I continue to be so amazed by the support we are receiving, thank you Charleston community. I am so excited to get some pics of Fit Club up onto our site -stay tuned.
We have in week 4 a combined weight loss of over 32 lbs!!! The most important part though is that the kids keep coming and are sharing in the calls some very important things that we believe will hold the key to their sustained success in weight control and everyday life.
Enjoy your holiday weekend and just know how grateful we all are that you have taken the interest in our “little engine that could” -because we are!
