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!
