Show me the money!

Final, final, FINAL, final?, FINAL!!!!!!! weigh in this Rutgers Homecoming day.....193.

Release the funds!

Not only slim but.....

....I guess a little healthier.

I just my results back from my cholesterol, et al and wanted to share the
news with the group;

Aug 06 Jul 07
Triglycerides 325 (way too high) 106 (normal range)
HDL (good) chol 62 ?
LDL (bad) chol 205 (way too high) 160 (still high but much better)
Total cholesterol 322 258

His comment in his message was that this was a remarkable turnaround
and at this time he doesn't want to consider me for meds. He wants to
check me again in 6 months, but he is optimisitic that continuing this trend
I'll be okay. So thanks again Biggest Loser!

FYI, weighed in at 194 the other day and I'm wearing my OLD 34's!
Yay!

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

You mean I can't eat like a pig now? Damn it!

......I have a 3 week vacation coming up!!!!!

WTF!

Sigh.

All kidding aside....this was great. I went from a 40 inch waste
(I never bought the jeans, but I should have) to a 35 inch waist.

It feels good.....but I probably need some mental help to figure out
why something like this can motivate me to lose weight but I'll not
be motivated to just be healthier for its own sake.

Thanks.

THE WINNER IS....

Hey Everybody!!! So here are our results (minus 2) in order of loss for final weigh in BUT
please know there is a twist (read all about it at the end of the list!!!). I hope everyone feels healthier--I know that I do. I've completely changed my exercise schedule/diet (not sure why I'm not losing more weight, but oh well, I look good :)

Congrats to Jim for losing the most weight!

THE TWIST

Here's how it works: Right now, Jim is the winner with a weight of 198 (good job!). Jim, you need to maintain that weight until Septmeber 15th to collect your winnings. If you don't, the competition is open again and the person who has the greatest weight loss as of September 15th wins the pool. This is an incentive for the winner to stay healthy and the others to keep on trying to continue their weight loss.

Have a great summer and we'll see you all on September 15th!!!!

Nancy

Slightly lighter

Hey guys,

Here's the final results:

Starting weight: 210 lbs.
Final weight: 193 lbs.
Total weight lost: 17 lbs.

Thanks for the motivation--I can fit into my normal jeans again. (I'm putting the one's from Veronique Maternity back into storage.)

Congratulations to the winner!

Jay

what a roller coaster!

no, not really. i don't remember how much i was at the beginning, but i managed to go up and down each month, with a final weigh in at 135. which is exactly where i started. there's something (not something very interesting) to be said for consistency.

And the winner is...

Fat Fat Fat Fat Fat Fatty

Fatty McEats-too-much has a final weigh-in of 205. I really wanted to crack that 200 barrier but my overall sloth has slowed down my metabolism. Congrats to the thinner, I mean winner.

My Final Weigh In

Jim, 198

Where's the beef?

There's only a few days left! How am I supposed to know how many miles I have to run this week unless I know the May weigh-ins? (Answer....it doesn't matter....I'm not running.)

Gossamer lives!

The monster just weighed in at the Fay house......write him at 184.

Anyone else hear about a 'twist' ending?

MAY DAY

Guys,

Sorry I've been sleeping on the job. Please post your weight for May as soon as you can. Good luck!!!

Hey guys,

Here's my April info:

2/15 210
3/15 211 (gained 1 lb)
4/15 213 (gained 2 lbs)

I'm almost up to my official sumo weight. I'm so proud!

just call me la gordita. i am now 4 pounds heavier than my initial weigh in. that's 139. i attribute this to going to the gym 4 days a week and eating only yogurt and oatmeal. ok, that easter rabbit threw me for a choco-loop, and i enjoy my alcohol. but really, wtf?

Slim Jim not so slim.

Slim Jim here (aka GrapeNuts). No loss this month, but no gain either. 210.

April Showers...

Hi All,

It's that time again, and hopefully I have found a way for you all to get onto this blog! I don't quite know what the problem is (it must be me.).

Please send in your weight for April.

Good Luck!
