Week 9

Sorry, I'm a day late! Did you think I quit?? So, this is the last week!! Are you excited, sad, worried...what do you plan on doing after the competition? Are you going to keep it up? Change a few things?

Congrats again to all you 60 pointers and also to Teresa for the biggest point jump of the week!

We are still missing points from: Ami Blamires and Julie Yamane.

So, next Sunday I also need you to send me any unused bonus points. I tried to keep track but would like to see your figure. Thanks!

Week 8 Points

It's finally getting harder for me! I don't know if it's the fact that I KNOW I won't win...so I say..."what's one lost point?" or if it's just that I've been doing this for so long that I want more cake! Cake is my weakness. But, I'm hanging in there! I can tell that I am in such better shape because of all this exercise! Whoo! Because of all my squats, I actually might just wear a swimsuit without a skirt or shorts covering my behind...so watch out! I've been wanting to get rid of the farmer tan there, for a long time now!

I love all your emails telling me how happy you are! Teresa has lost 20+ pounds and I know Marc and Dan Jacobs have also lost a significant amount...can't remember the numbers! But, that is SO awesome!

Here are the points for Week 8:

I am still missing points from Julie Yamane and Brenda Bachrach

Week 7 Points!

Okay, if ONE more person quits, I'm gonna scream! Try me. I have LOTS of stuff to say about that, but I must refrain so that I can still have friends. All I want to say is that if you want something for yourself...then it likely requires real effort to have it. If you fall down, get back up. It's okay if you aren't going to win...this competition is about bettering yourself, challenging yourself, finding out where you lack, holding yourself responsible, surrounding yourself with encouraging people, and becoming healthier...and listening to my jibber-jabber. It's interesting being the one in charge of this...I get lots of emails...some people telling me how much they love the competition, how they have lost weight, how they wish it was harder....and then I get lot of emails about how hard it is, how it gets in the way of life, how they'll never win, sad, sad, sad. Don't quit, y'all!! We only have 3 weeks left....make it count!

Congrats to Athena, Camille, and Teresa for their hefty point jumps!

*Angie Nickle - still need your points.

Week 6 Points!

Just four weeks left! Don't get lazy on me! There are a couple more unconfirmed quitters...I'm assuming Danell Bachrach, Kendall Babbitt and Tammy Babbitt. I haven't received their points in a couple weeks. I'm still waiting on points from Jamie Bowers. Have a good week!
