Here
are the New Years 2006 Winners!
This
Challenge Grand Champion is Harley Schaeffer
from Webnersville, PA (pictured below). Here's what he
had to say about his incredible journey:
Harley
lost 30 pounds and shed 8% body fat.
"Wow!
I can't believe how well the Lean Body Challenge
works! I could actually see myself changing before
my eyes! The diet along with the fitness schedule
worked hand in hand together. It made it easier to
stick with the daily routine.
I've always had trouble sticking with diets
and workout plans, but this challenge actually makes
it easy. I have made a tremendous transformation,
physically and mentally. Anyone seeking health and
physical gains should look at how well the plan worked
for me and know it could work for them as well.
I've gone from 188 lbs. to 158 lbs., 34 pants
size to 31 pants size, and 16% Bodyfat to 8%! This
worked better than I could have hoped for.truly
amazing!" |
Congratulations,
Harley!

"My
Dream has always been to get on the stage one day,
and be able to compete, but first, I needed to win
the battle against myself. The challenge itself has
been a great motivation to get to the finish line.
I was taught in life if we want to succeed, we need
to have determination, the Lean Body Challenge has
helped me to get all that again, and now I won't
go back to the old me. Thank you to Lee Labrada and
his whole crew for giving me the opportunity and for
sure this is going to my book of 'Great Experiences.'" |

I feel that this challenge has lead me to believe

decision to participate in the Lean Body Challenge
was based on the fact that my cholesterol levels were

"My
wife kept me motivated mostly. Also, my co-workers
had bets on me that I would not stick with the challenge.
I had to prove them wrong! Beside, whatever financial
reward they would receive, I would be the only winner.
My biggest challenge was while traveling on my business
trips two weeks each month. Add to that, my celiac
disease and being lactose intolerant which presented
additional problems for nutritional wellness. Using
Super Charge!, Lean Body Gold Bars and the Lean Body
shakes were the "life-savers" during my
travels." |

"With
the encouragement and motivation from my husband and
the weekly tips from Lee I've been able to stay
on track and finish this challenge with positive results.
Per Lee's Lean Body Promise Book, I kept a detailed
written journal outlining my thoughts each day, exactly
what I ate and what exercises I accomplished that
day. I firmly believe this helped to keep me focused
and accountable! I would love to meet Lee and thank
him personally for his products, knowledge and support!
Even if I don't place as the Grand Prize Champion,
I am a WINNER!" |
