Week 6 Results

We had 10 pounds gained this week and 14 pounds lost, bringing our group weight loss for the week to 4 pounds. Better than last week, but hopefully we can get more losers rather than gainers next week. We are at the halfway mark so time to step up our game and finish strong.

END DATE - UPDATE

The program has been officially extended by one week – now ending Sunday, April 5th.

The reason: On March 29th, 9 of the 16 current members will be out of town attending Joe and Laura’s daughters wedding in California. Some of you may remember Melissa from rounds two and three - her sister Erin was the one who lost the most weight, but had the fewest exercise points. Go figure!

Thanks everyone and keep up the great work.

P.S. Judging by last week's totals, it looks like everyone is committed to exercising; now we just have to focus on eating better too.

Week 5 Results

We actually ended with 0 pounds lost/gained as a group this week. We had several people who lost weight, but also a few that gained. Hopefully this week we can add a few more pounds to that group total.
