Can you believe it? Of course you can't. Y'all thought I fell off the wagon and blew the whole Biggest Loser contest. Admit it. I don't blame you. I mean, how could you think otherwise when I never update my blog???
I apologize.
Anyway. Yeah. I won our contest! I was pretty dang excited. And it was really, super close! It was like a photo finish! It was like Michael Phelps winning that gold medal just because his opponent cut his fingernails the morning of the big race. My final weightloss percentage was 12.55. The person neck and neck with me....12.22. Isn't that crazy??? It was like the real show. When it is a matter of one pound. Wow.
I must admit I was quite disappointed with my final weigh-in though. Wait. Let me go back a bit. I just remembered that you don't know how I did last week. I ended up losing 3 pounds...202.....for a total of 29 pounds. Today when I weighed in, it said 202. *frown* So, I tried it again....203. Oh, no! That would never do! I tried it a couple more times with 203. Then I decided to try Horton's trick (from Horton Hears a Who) I took a deep breath, held it, and stepped back on the scale. 202!!!! Wahoo!!! (I tried holding my breath a couple times with the same result...I think I'm gonna have to remember that trick). So, my final, final weight loss was 29 pounds. Do you realize how irritating that is?? I mean, really? Bah!
So. Yeah. I won $250, so I'm over the irritation. How cool is that? I'm gonna save to go towards a new wardrobe. I'm going to combine it with the $500 I'm gonna win next time. That's right. We're starting again. We've got a couple more friends who are joining us (a total of 6 of us) and we've upped the anty to $100 each. Wowsers! Kathi is convinced that she is going to win, but she's wrong. It will be me. However, I know her. She is going to be a force to be reconed with! Did you watch the Biggest Loser when Ali won? Remember how she had been voted off, lost tons of weight at home then was able to come back, kept losing tons of weight and ended up winning the whole thing? That would be Kathi. Did you watch the episode with Tara? Remember how she won all the challenges, even with major disadvantages. That would be Kathi. No matter, though. Tara didn't win that season. The winner will be me this time! Bwahahahaha!!!
Anyway, I'm fired up. I'm ready to go. I had ice cream tonight so I could start again tomorrow. Hehe.

Way to go Kristi!!!!! I'd join but um you guys are way to steep for me!! Though if I won I could afford it :) Hah hah Hah!! Look forward to hearing all about it and hope it motivates me to do something too!!! Tuesday is Makeover week on B.L. can't wait. A new hair cut, color and paint of nail always makes me feel pretty.
ReplyDeleteYay makeover week! Mike and Daris need haircuts, big time! Congrats again, Kristi. You're awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys!!
ReplyDeleteI love makeover week! When I'm done with all this, I'll have to have one myself. Yet another reason I need to with this next one. I just may need to fly to New York to have Nick Arosho (however you spell his name) do my hair! Oooohhh...maybe I'll dress really bad when I'm done and I can get on What Not to Wear. There's a plan!!
I would nominate you for what not to wear, as long as you picked me up a sweet trench coat in new york. Deal? The pictures are amazing, I hope you're super proud of yourself. You have a waist! (and a skinny one at that!)
ReplyDeleteOh, I'd make that deal in a heartbeat, Camille!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your comments, compliments and support! I am super proud of myself. Although I wouldn't go so far as to say I have a "skinny" waist, it is definitely more defined. In fact, I almost look pregnant now. Just more incentive to keep going! :)
