weigh in day is to day.

[Guest guest]

For all those who jumped in on the one month weight lost contest for a $40

gift card from Wal-Mart is over to day. I weighed in at 287.5. was one month ago

294. this looks to me as a 6.5 lost in one month. the winner is a lady name

Jackie Nobles on the alum list that I belong to. I actually went to school with

Jackie and she had guessed 286.5. only missing by one pound, but closer then my

neighbor who guessed 286. the rest of you including my self guessed lower. we

all had to much faith and predicted I would be much smaller. to bad! so I

started this journey on the first of March weighing in at 317 that day and now

weighing in at 287.5. the math tells me this is, 29.5 pound gone in 3 months. I

can live with ten pounds per month average. those 2 pounds lost in 2 weeks suck

very loud in my opinion, but when you look at the whole picture it looks much

better. soon I will have another weight lost contest and of course I demand you

join. the prize the third time will be bigger then this time and this second

time was bigger then the first time. I use the contest my self as a motivation

tool to keep me accountable and to reward you if your guess is the closest. I

take my hat of to MRS. Jackie, who I called mop head back in school. she had a

huge pile of hair on top of her head and to me way back then she looked like a

mop. thin body for a handle and the mop head on the other end. this makes the

second time she has won some prize money from me. starting to think she has an

in side track in to my future. I thank you all who played. all 21 of you. please

hang in and do join in on the next weight lost contest coming soon. I have to

think on what it should be and will be letting all know. my goal as most of you

know is a total lost of 135 from 317. 105.5 left to go. it does sound like a

huge amount, but we can't take it off until we first start and remove the first

pound. I've been at it now 3 months and it is a long journey for sure, but what

a fine celebration it will be when I win the race some time in 2013!
