275 to 231

OK. We're out of town tomorrow, so here's my photos. I weighed in this morning, but I'll do it again tomorrow just to make it official!

210 to 188

My weigh in is complete at 188!!!

Woo hoo!!!

Your turn boys I am waiting you you guys to post some numbers and pics!

Read It and Weep...Smackie!!!

(Sung to the tune in my head...accompanied by the happy dance...)
There ain't gonna be no Speedo,
no Speedo,
no Speedo,
There ain't gonna be no Speedo,
no Speedo,
no Speedo,
There ain't gonna be no Speedo for meeeeeeee!!!

I'm out.....

I'm out....  I'm 10lbs over my goal and decided that I don't want to starve myself for the next two weeks.  You guys rock (I don't).

How do we pay out?  10lbs * $25 = $250

I owe the group $250.

Good luck to everyone.

Free Hashbrowns

If my nearest Waffle House wasn't 300 miles away, I would SO be all over this!



10 Days to go...

Bon Voyage!

Wow, watching the Rob and Will thing has been like watching a train wreck! I want to look away, I just can't!

So, on a friendlier note...

I'll be leaving today for my cruise. I'm currently 8 lbs. below my target, so we'll see if I can stay away from the buffet enough to keep from adding it all back. There's no CHEAP phone or internet access on the ship, so you won't see any of my postings on LoseIt for awhile. I'll still be keeping up though, so don't think I've gone all Rob Williams on this thing and disappeared!

Everyone have a great week and keep losing!

Aikido Training.....

Will Pringle, the only way that you are going to get money from me is if you pull it from my cold dead Aikido hands. 

The only thing that I am worried about Seattle is if the airline will let me on with these deadly weapons.  

With all that smack talk, why don't you put some money where your mouth is.....  I have issued additional bet(s) to you that have gone unanswered.

Be afraid Will Pringle, be *very* afraid.....

But I don't take, American Express...

This note is to Rob "My Elusive 34's" Williams.

FYI - when I see you in Seattle on April 10th, I prefer that you bring cash to pay your bill. And my Flip camera is going to record the whole proceeding. I can hear you now... wah, wah... "I'm so sorry Will that I ever thought I could be as skinny as you."

Please Rob, stop groveling. "You're the greatest Wilmeister... and Marv, Jimmy, Ken, Dave and Alex too. I don't know why I ever doubted you guys and thought I could lose more weight than you".

Man Rob, you know we can't stand it when you grovel! But, that said, from this moment on you must forever refer to yourself as "THE LOSER" and the five of us as Bones, Slim, Stretch, Stringbean and Skeletor".

You're going down Rob Williams... and don't forget to pack your crying towel for the trip to Seattle - you're going to need it!

Book Store

I went to the book store the other day looking for some good diet books. All I could find was fat, fat, fat recipes! I finally figured out that I was in the .....

Will lost 13 lbs. in all the right places!!!

Man will sure is losing weight in all the right places!!! What's his secret?

Jimmy Lost 13 Pounds!!!

Jimmy is down 13 pounds and has been dying to show off his new trim tummy to everyone. Way to go Jim!

Victory!

I made my weight, but I need a ruling. As Will pointed out, we're halfway home. I pushed hard because I have a family cruise coming up in two weeks and I don't want to be worrying about what I eat on the ship. So my question; Can I state now that I meet the goal and not worry about April 15th or do I still have to weigh in then? Rob has ruled against me, but I'm filing an appeal!

Half Way There!

Gentlemen. We are now 1/2 way to our end goal of April 10th. If you have not yet lost 50% of your goal... you are behind. I would like to remind everyone that this is a competition among friends. Your pride is on the line. That, and $25 for every pound that you do not lose. To the winner(s) go the spoils. Good luck and Godspeed.

Ken Evans Plan A......

(Ken's Weight Loss Plan)

Apparently Ken Evans plans to lose weight with Super Colon Cleansing's.  Does anyone else have a strategy that they would like to share with the group?  

(honestly, Ken could have kept this one to himself)

Lose it.....

This is my friend list on Lose It. Does everyone have everyone?

Also I would like to add Ken and Dave.

I fell off the wagon.....

Ok, so somewhere between the donuts, burgers, and four weeks of travel from home (in a mini-van with wife/three kids, battling through three snow storms), I have fallin off the waggon. Red Bulls, Outback Steak dinners..... its all a blurr. Plus no G3/wireless (my loseit is shambles).

At this point I can either start writing checks, or get back on board. So I'm jumping back in......

Even now, how hard can it be to beat Will Pringle???

But did you see that Jimmy Short broke down past the 200 mark!


Ok fella's, I'm back in. Let the re-Blogging begin.....

Tis' the Season...

Man I love Girl Scout cookie season!!!

So here's the question...

Thin Mints or Lemon Cremes...

My vote like there was even a question:

Thin Mints

The Cheesecake Factory

We had a great Valentine's day. First we went to the zoo and then to the Cheesecake Factory for lunch and a great Lemonchello cake. Layers of yellow cake filled with lemon cheesecake topped off with fresh strawberry sauce and berries.

Super Bowl XLIV Party at the Short's

So, this was one of the two platters of ribs and chicken we got from Whole Foods. Man the beers really helped bring it all together. Bummed the Colts lost!!!

Do you guys notice the first word that comes from a consultant's mouth when they are explaining something is "so"?
