before & after

Before (October 2008)



After (March 2009)

So here's the difference maker!! I'm sure to have cut at least half a pound of hair off on weigh in day and I won by 8/100th's of a percent! I gotta thank Sara for the idea though, early on in the contest!

0.08% = 0.17lbs = 2.7-ounce margin of victory

Angela, wow you must have worked your TAIL OFF to even make it that close!!

Congrats to us all! Greg and Sara, this was a great idea! I still am hoping to lose another 10-ish pounds or so before all is said and done until I am in the shape I want to be in. (I've given myself 4 weeks to do it so I'm not tempted to slack.)

Julie and I are going to the gym on a regular basis and are making a habit of it (I still got up this morning at 5:30 to hit the gym) so this has been a positive experience all around. I would love to do this again next year (though I hope I don't NEED to do it)

Thank you all for the dedication and motivation!
