And overall, I finished first. Jenny came in second and Andy third. I wish more of you could have sent in your after pics because I loved seeing the ones that did come in. Feel free to post yours on here if you want so that we can all congratulate you on how great you look. :)

Jenny gave me permission to post hers. She looks amazing! Great job, everyone! You all definitely kept me motivated to the very end. Now that I've hit my goals, I just have to work the rest of my life to maintain it!

Before I had my 5 yr old take my after pics today, I thought I wouldn't be able to see much of a difference in the 20 lbs I lost this summer. I was wrong! 20 lbs is a lot, and it makes a huge difference! I'm glad I took the pictures so that I could SEE it. I hope you all can see it in yours, too. And, as a side note, I think it is genetically impossible for me to have a butt. Just sayin'. I don't know what else I can do. :)

I am going to have my hubby take some pictures of me (wearing more clothes) for my "final reveal." I will post on here in case any one wants to see those. Good luck to all of you and your weight loss journeys! I hope you all feel happy with what you've accomplished this summer.

Did a bad job of covering my back with sunscreen a few weeks ago...

Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition

For those of you who like reality shows about losing weight, I think this is a great one -- Extreme Makeover: Weight Loss Edition. I've been missing my Biggest Loser fix every week, but I found this one recently, and it has really helped keep me motivated.

If you haven't seen EM before, it follows one person's weight loss journey over a year. They lose an incredible amount of weight and work on overcoming their fears -- it is very inspiring! They are usually completely different people -- inside and out -- by the end. It's had me reflecting on how amazing it is that a person can completely change who they are in like 6 months. I love it.

Week 10 results!

Wow! We had a great week this week. We lost 15.8 lbs! I think that is our 3rd best week so far. As a group we have lost 130.3 lbs!! That is so good. That's probably more than the skinny girl in the picture weighs. 

Just two more weigh-ins to go! Let's finish strong!

This week's top spot goes to Melyssa! Woohoo!

1. Melyssa   -2.11%

2. Andy      -1.67%

3. Jenn      -1.49%

4. Mary      -1.47%

5. Aaron     -1.3%

6. Jenny     -1.07%

7. Ann        0

8. Tiffany   +0.63%

And overall numbers --

1. Jenn     -12.95%

2. Andy     -10.49%

3. Jenny    -10.46%

4. Aaron    -8.43%

5. Melyssa  -7.71%

6. Tiffany  -6.73%

7. Ann      -6.43%

8. Mary     -5.01%

Not sure what is up with the formatting this week -- looks goofy.

Want to go another round?

Got a little more to lose?

I've had people ask me if I would do a Biggest Loser 2 after this one ends. I would love to! I will not participate again myself, but I'd be happy to host it again for anyone interested. So let me know what you guys are thinking about it, and if you want to keep on keepin' on. If we get enough people, then I will do it again. So start spreading the word now to see if we can get a good group together.

We still have 3 weeks to go in this one, though, so let's make the most of it! Week 9 results are coming soon!

Week 8 Results!

Hi all! Sorry this is a bit late, but we are preparing to move, and things are a little bit crazy around here. We're moving a bunch of stuff tonight to Idaho to store at Andrew's dad's house. Can't wait to get this stuff out of here!! We're moving to Springville at the end of the month.
