Week 8 Update

Memorial Day is a Federal holiday intended to commemorate U.S. men and women who have perished while serving their country. To this weight08 group it appears to be a week/weekend of non-stop eating. The exercise points are on the rise; however, we have gained 20 lbs as a group over the last two weeks.

Congratulations to the few who have managed to actually lose a pound or two during this time.

All we need to do is lose 20 lbs a week as a group and we’ll still hit that 120 lb total. O.K…. maybe we should shoot for 80 lbs. We are currently sitting at 40lbs lost after going back 20.

Week 8 Results:
Laura – 7
Krissy – 6
Jenny – 5
Mary – 5
Rolf – 5
Dan – 5
Heidi – 4
Nancy – 4
Erin – 4
Jan – 3 (owes $.50)
Melissa – 3 (owes $.50)
Mark – 2 (owes ($2.00)

Due to the recent weight gain, we have a great opportunity to lose some serious weight this week. Good luck to everyone! Now get out there, enjoy the sun, and try not to eat all those tasty summer treats!

Sidebar – Tommy had a pretty severe knee injury last week and will no longer be able to participate in the weight08 program. It is uncertain the severity of the injury but at first glance it appears he has torn his ACL. Regardless, he will be unable to exercise, which doesn’t bode well for the points portion of this competition.
