Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there, especially mine. Another uneventful week, still on the plateau.  Allergies seem a little better since we got some rain so maybe I can get outside this week, lots of yard work to do :(  And whoever posted on facebook that we should have our final weigh-in wearing swimsuits: great motivation, not gonna happen.

5/4

Just read the article in the News Herald about the last weigh in.  I just wanted to say congrats to the contestants still in the contest, collectively we have lost almost 550 pounds, thats a quarter ton, great job! Anyone who did not make the cut please dont give up, I know it would be hard for me if I wasnt still in the contest.  Well, hopefully my allergies will clear up a little so I can feel OK leaving the house(really bad last two weeks) Good luck everyone!
