Anyone still out there?

Hey all! Just wondering if anyone still checks in here from time to time. After a bit of a hiatus (our trip to Utah was WAY too tasty) Matt & I are back to work. He still has some work to hit his goal and I have a few pounds I would like to shed. So if anyone is ready to take another try, let's use this to spur each other on! I know we can all do this!

Final results?

Not quite... While the contest may be done, we are not! I am still totally flabbergasted by what Matt has accomplished! With his 60.6 pound, 21% weight loss, he won the contest at the local gym. He won himself free training sessions (or torture sessions, depending on how you look at it). He also got some coupons - one of which I get to use to get my hair done. So I guess I won, too! He did just miss out on the grand prize, but that is perfectly fine. Another thing I won is that he gave in and let me get him a new suit even though he hasn't quite hit his goal weight. He had enough of the comments from people at church but especially his loving daughters! He looks great and I can't wait to get him a couple really nice suits when he is all done!
As for me, it has been slow going the last few weeks. My final numbers were 27.5 pounds or 16.7 pounds (sorry, one of our posts was wrong). The best part is I am feeling much better over all and my hips and knees are a bit more forgiving when I decide to go for a jog!
Like I said, Matt & I are not done. We both still have some pounds that we would like to lose. And whether you all have more pounds you want to lose or just want to continue living a bit more healthfully, I would suggest we continue to use this site to encourage one another and ask questions, give tips, anything at all that would help.
We all did a great job these past 3 months. Let's all keep it up and stay healthy and HOT!

It's over

O.k. I haven't lost anymore weight. but at least I didn't gain any from last week when we were on vacation. I was scared because I was a pig. My total weight lost is 18 lbs. 10.8% I should of done better, but I am not going to give up. I still want to loose about another 20 lbs. I am just a little slow at it.
Good job everyone. It was kinda fun.

Paul and Angie

Is Jenelle coming on Saturday? We actually used all our spending money on our trip (and then some) so we won't be going to Hu-Hot, it might be better for us to just play games one of these Sundays. We miss your family and would love to get together. Sorry for being so wishy washy, but with Naaman's game so early in the day, we would either have to wait around for a few hours or come into town twice. It just makes more sense to do it another day.

Sounds Good

We just got back from vacation, and I regret to say we have gained a couple of pounds. We were very naughty and ate lots of delicious food!! We both know we are not going to win, but we will post on Saturday anyway.
We are looking forward to Saturday, and 4:00 sounds fine. Naaman's game will get over at 12:00 and we will go to my parents house or something until dinner. See you soon.

Final Party

We are having an adult get together on Saturday for anyone who can join us. We will start the evening at 4pm at Hu-Hot. After that you are invited to come over to Matt and Annette's home for games and fun. We are trying to make contact by phone but are having problems getting ahold of some of you. Let us know if you are interested. I know this may not work for everyone but still wanted to throw out the invite. We were planning on having final weigh ins also on Saturday. We are not sure how some of you are doing do to the lack of posting. If there is anyone out there that is over 20% lost let us know and we can do an official weight in. If not, you can just do a final weight in and post on the blog if you would like. Matts last percentage was around 20, annette was around 18 and angie was around 15. If you others can top those let us know and we can do weigh ins. Matt and Janel have a few extra days but I was not planning on weighing in a week later if I was in the lead just so we could end on the same date. But If I am not in the lead we will have final results on the 17th. Congrats to everyone on their hard work. Hope to hear from you soon.
