Jen Jones

I am  sorry I was MIA last weigh in.  We were on a vacation and I thought I would have access to update but I did not.  Anyway....I stayed the same regardless.

I do need to update the miles I have for March but I really am not sure how to do it.  Can someone explain it to me so I can add 54.95 miles to the total?  Thanks!

Thanks Everyone

Sooooo we made our goal!!! We ran 300+ miles!!!! Here is the thing....... We didn't get participation from everyone!!!!!!!!!! Sooooooo I changed the goal to 1000 miles! By July 1.... So keep up the good work!!!!!

M-I-C---K-E-Y...MOUSE! (Big Daddy & Big Mama)

CRAIG & LISA....just got back from Disneyland....do we really need to say which way the scales tipped?

Can you say....."Monte Cristo Sandwich for Craig...." and "Mickey Fudge" for Lisa!

We are off the monorail and back on track!  Promise!

Patters

Pat is the same this week (The stress from BYU got to him I think).... :) He also ran 2 miles this week!

Eric and Katie

Eric is down a little bit- .27% for a total of 15.58% He ran 10 extra miles this week

Katie- I played catch up all week (from my cheat days last week) so I am the same.. I ran 9.5 miles this week as well.

Leslee C - week 12

I lost 1 lb this week.  My total percent is - 13.16
ERIC!!!  Trying to catch you!!!
Please add 6 miles to our mileage count.
Thanks!

Lisa B. Week 12

I can't believe it is already week 12! I need to get serious! The scales went the wrong way this week-I will make up for it next week! Have a great week everyone :)

Bruce and Sue Week #12

Bruce had a super week he is down another 1.04% for a total of 4.92%.

Sue had a super great week too. Stayed motivated! Worked out hard! Counted calories! (Didn't even cheat!) Still the scales are not my friend. I did however lose a small tidbit so I will take it...or leave it as it were. Down .55% for a total of 6.75%.

PS....

We reached our GOAL for 250 miles- we reached it because some people ran A LOT more then was required of them! I didn't hear from everyone and I changed our goal to 300 miles!!! So keep it up! And EVERYONE NEEDS TO PARTICIPATE!!!!

Work Out Idea

I really like this DVD- its like $8 @ Walmart or Sam's. It is only 25 mins and is great if I don't have time to spend an hour working out! There are 3 levels- and they are kick my butt. All you need are hand weights (I recom. starting with 3lbs)

Dear Jayne...

Jayne- it's nice to have you back!!! We need a BEFORE pic of you on the blog!!

Get Hiking SUE!!!!

Ok, so I fell off the grid. I let the problems of others get to me. I tried to solve the ward problems. I get it. I just have to listen and do what I can. Visit them, but not eat with them.
So BRING IT SUE. I am back in the game. I am on track. I am going to blow you out of the water. I am going toooooooooooooo.
OK well, I am going to take it a day at a time, thinking of you SUE. Hoping you are doing well, So I can still beat you. Just playing. Love you wo----man. AND Lisa B. Oh Yeah, I can beat her too. Aren't you two together in meetings all the time. I see some delicious special deliveries for you two.

The check is in the mail Katie. What is up with ERIC???? Feed that boy some Big Mac's and Fries and Shakes.
When is our first hike Sue? Don't be going without me. Later!

Natalie

Well I lost 1.4 pounds this week. That is a .71 percent loss for a total percentage lost of 4.02 percent and 8.2 pounds with you all, but a total of 39.8 pounds since my journey began.  Slow and steady wins the life race; however, I won't win this race...darn it!  I would love the money, but I ultimately will win my own personal journey.

Good luck to you all. Deadlines obviously don't work for me, but I am glad I could contribute to your winning pot.

Who knows...I could suprise my own self and make a come back.

I logged in a measely 14 miles over the last 2 weeks. My goal will be to log in 18 miles this week.  Hold me to it!!

Phyllis

Phyllis had an AWESOME week! She is down 1.52%!!!

Pat Results

Pat said he is very sick of only 1lb loses the past couple weeks- he is down .42% for a total of 9.27% he has lost 24lbs so far!!!

Heidi

Heidi has been really sick the last couple weeks- and has stayed the same. Good luck next week!!!

Big Daddy C.

Craig remained the same this week.  Have you heard that statement yet????

Jen Jones

I am at a big 0 this week!

Lisa C.

I remained the same, 0% for this week, total of 8.25%, 17 lbs. lost to date.

Confessions: Forgive me losers for I have indulged!   I have gone over to the dark side....multiple times this week. Too many indulgences to my taste buds to name.  My skinny alter ego is very motivated, but...my weaker "un-motivated" ego got the better of me this week.

I will take some inspiration from all of you motivated Losers...

ever upward!

P.S. I saw both Katie and Eric yesterday....they LOOK marvelous, and I am very proud of how motivated and committed the are!  (grandson Sammy has some great genetics!) :)

Bruce and Sue Week #11

Bruce is down .55% for a total of 9.4 pounds.  Weigh to go almost 10.

Okay now as for Sue: 4th straight week of nothin' and that is after being sick all week. Too sick to exercise it is true but also too sick to eat much. NOW THAT IS TOO SICK! Something is wrong when you are sick and the weight still doesn't come off (although ice cream did slide over the sore throat quite nicely) soooo.........look out cuz now I am just plain mad. Any body wonder where Eric gets that major competitive streak of his? He was schooled by his momma and momma is ready to play ball and stop messing around!!

Note to Jayne....where the heck are you and why are you not on here giving us all grief? Is your life busier and more challenging than ours. Is your temple less important to take care of than everybody elses you are engaged in caring for miss RS Pres? Do you not have the guts to finish this challenge you committed to? There are 3 months left. Have you really thrown in the towel cuz I can walk/run/bike over to your place and pick up my $100 today...just say the word...while I am at it I will walk/run/bike to the store and buy you a case of chocolate for your consolation prize.....I will set it at the base of the waterfall up waterfall canyon for you to pick up at your leisure.....luv you Jayner.

Big Daddy & Big Mama Carter Week 10

Craig remained the same, total percentage of 3.4%, 0 for the week.  LONG, LONG week at work fighting the legislature for educational funds, not much gym time! Craig has walked 15 miles so far this month.

Lisa worked very hard for the last 3 weeks to finally lose 1 lb.  Weekly percentage of .53%, total percentage of 8.25%, total weight loss of 17 lbs.  We are almost to our half way mark in our weight loss challenge....sure hope to be at least  to my half way point in my goal by the end of March!!!  Lisa has walked/"elipticaled" 18 miles so far this month.

May the Luck of the Irish be to thee!!!

Lisa B Week 10

I was out of town last week and forgot to check in. Sorry! This week I lost .66% for a total of 3.83.
I have walked 18 miles.

Sue Week #10

Again a big fat zero on the weight loss for the week for me.
I logged 31.5 miles towards our team goal for March for a total of 63.5.
Hopefully the scale will start cooperating with my requests of it any day now! (Maybe I should stop celebrating multiple peoples birthdays with great food, cake and ice cream! Tastes great but never looks good on the scales!!)

I am trying to fight the Evil longings for sweets!

promises promises

Have you ever looked in the mirror first thing in the morning and said "OK, today I will not eat any kind of processed food, especially SUGAR of any kind!  I will be strong!  I will resist! I can do this!"  And then you look at yourself reflected in the fridge a few hours later as you are putting a big jar of hot fudge with your big tablespoon marks (plural) fresh within!??

Jen Jones

I am a slacker! I started shopping really early yesterday morning for out HUGE Easter Egg Hunt and completely forgot to check in.  My total weight loss for the week was zero.  Have a great week everyone!

PAYMENT

REMEMBER: OUR $100 IS DUE DUE DUE!  In fact it is now PAST DUE! I might have to start charging % for late payments! We are just missing a few of you....

Thanks for those that paid!

Pat and Leslee

Pat lost another lb for a wkly of .42% and a total of 8.49%

Leslee actually had a 0% for once! So she stayed the same this week...

Eric Loss

Eric had a nice week- down 1.2lbs for a wkly of .65% and a total of 14.42%
He has lost 31lbs since we started!


I am really proud of Eric- he is great to have around, always taking any treats away from me and keeping me extra motivated. I think it's a little frustrating to those of us that started this journey BEFORE the contest started to have such slow results compared to this creeper-boy BUT he can't lose much more or he might just disappear!

Big Daddy C

Singing the same tune as Big Mama, Lisa C.  "Same 'ol, Same 'ol.....
however....we are motivated and will continue to exercise, ramp it up a bit, and
wire our jaws shut!!!

Sue Week #9

Sue stayed the same (actually up a tad). Hiss and Boo!

I did however log 23 miles towards our group effort of 250.  I guess in order to lose weight I would actually have to not only exercise but stop feeding my face because 23 miles and too many calories means nothing on the scales.....shoot!

Bruce is down .77% and no miles "cuz that is all kinds of fair."

Natalie

I lost 2.2 pounds this week. This is a 1.10 % loss. A total of 3.3% since the beginning. Wow (Sarcasm)!  I have lost 6.8 pounds since we started in January. But, my disclaimer is that I have lost a total of 38.4 pounds since I started in the summer. Slow and steady wins the race...maybe not the money...but the race of life-long change. Although, the money would nice. I sure want an IPad.

Big Mama Lisa C.

My song this week is  "Same 'ol, Same 'ol....."  

Next week I am hoping I can sing a different tune...2 weeks in a row no loss!  

Weekly percentage 0%, total of 7.77%....

A new month has begun!  Hopefully the weight loss has "sprung" too!!!

KT wk 9

Hey Everyone- hope your week went better then mine! I was sooooo stinkin' sick which then made me stress (stress=ice-cream late night treats) so luckly only gained a little bit.... NO LOSS this week.. So sad! But couldn't workout all week sooooo I am feeling better now and a new week is upon us!

Katie

PS Eric will be posting later today we have our son's party this morning.

in the toilet...

Can you say....chocolate shake, french fries, taco's, and candy bar....can you imagine such a meal at once?
I can, I did, and the million dollar question is "WHY?"
