The end is near!
Long time no see!!
Sorry I have been such a slacker. I could make excuse after excuse but the truth is I had to take a break from hounding people week after week for their weights. But, I think i'm back now. :)
I will be getting totals to everyone for how much you owe for gaining. Please get me the money as quick as you can so I can get it to the winners!
Also, please send me your monthly weigh-in with a picture if you haven't already.

Challenge #3 results
Man, some of you are slackers!! I FINALLY have weigh-in and challenge results.
This was a tough challenge and I was sad to see only 3 of you complete it. Hopefully you were at least a little more aware of what you were eating. Now that you know what needs to change it makes things easier to actually change.
Try to make a few better choices this coming week. Good luck!

Challenge #3 (2/19 - 2/25)
One of the most important factors in losing weight is eating healthy. You all know this, but it is way easier said than done. Knowing what to eat, how much to eat, and what not to eat can be a lot to figure out.
Have you seen the new food plate? It has replaced the old food pyramid and makes it easier to see what you should be eating.
Half of your plate should be fruits and veggies. 100% fruit juices or any fresh, frozen, canned, or dried fruit count.
100% vegetables juices or raw, cooked, canned, frozen, and dried veggies all count as well.
The other half of your plate should be split between grains and proteins. At least half of your grains should be whole grains.
Proteins should be lean and varied.
You also need to have a cup of dairy to go with your plate. Fat-free or low fat dairy should be your first choice.
Check out the choosemyplate website. It tells you exactly how much of any food you need to fill your requirements and has lots of ideas for new foods you can try.
So, now for our challenge. The very first step in changing your eating habits starts with finding out what your habits are now. For this challenge I am not asking you to change your eating habits at all, just to take note of where you are at. (The changing comes later.)
Challenge: Make a food log of everything you eat or drink for at least 3 days in 1 week.
Reward: $2 off weekly weigh-in gains
Details: Report back to me the days you have logged everything you had to eat or drink. Logs must be written down so you look can look back and see exactly what you are eating. Reports must be to me by midnight on Sunday the 25th.
Good luck and as always, if you have any questions or concerns let me know!!

Challenge #2 results
This challenge was way too easy for a few of you, and way too hard for a few others. :)
But, as a group you did improve from the last challenge. 8 out of 12 contestants completed the challenge.
That means a $1 credit for you 8, for the other 4 - you get nothing!! :)
There will be a new challenge starting on Sunday so check back later today or tomorrow for details. This one will require a little bit more work from each of you so I hope you are up for the challenge.
Long weekend means extra time to exercise... Just to let you know.
