I'll bet you never would have thought it could happen, but I won the male biggest loser competition at my work. There were only about 5 guys in the competition, as compared to 30 or so women, so the competition wasn't too stiff, plus my experience cutting weight for wrestling paid huge dividends for the final weigh in. In total, I lost 15 pounds in 10 weeks.
My prize was a one-year membership to the gym of my choice. I chose the YMCA, and then I paid the additional amount to make it a family membership, so we have been enjoying the YMCA as a family. Ian and Mason really like the rock climbing wall, and Blake LOVES to swim. They changed the rules of the big slide so that kids can't ride on laps, so Blake now goes down the big slide all by himself and gets caught at the bottom by Jill or me.
My team also won the team competition, and our prize was that we each got a $150 gift certificate to the Sports Authority, which I used to buy a new bike trailer to pull blake behind my bike.
I'm feeling very proud of myself, but Jill tells me now I'm too skinny.
Last year Jill posted a picture of her in her wedding dress after she lost weight...since you are so skinny I definately think you should post a picture of you in Jill's wedding dress...
ReplyDeleteBoth of you are setting very good examples for you kids about being more healthy. Poor kids have to come to my house if they need a little fruit snack! Believe me, they now right where they are and do not hesitate to help themselves.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you are finally admitting that you are the biggest loser.
