Completed Challenge.

Ok, before you can really appreciate this post you have to go back and read about the 12 week challenge I took on with 3 friends. This was my 4th Biggest Loser competition but my first with a teammate. I was anxious to help my friends get excited about weight loss and feel successful because I've found that my success has fueled me to keep going. I won the first 3 weight loss competitions but I entered this one as I said previously with some nerves because I was the smallest person competing as well as the one who'd been on a healthy plan for the longest, making my weight loss a little slower than it use to be.

The previous entry gave you an idea of where I started at with a picture so I wanted to post a picture to show you how I did in the 12 weeks...

My team DID win, even though we started out of the gates behind by over 5%! We were slower but we stayed steady, fluctuating less than our competition and continued to lose weight even as they went back to gaining it. The idea was that we all be successful so we certainly wished no ill-will or weight gain on the other team, but I h ave to say it felt good to win!

We won by 14%! My team (me and one other person) lost almost 30 pounds between the two of us. So without further adieu the afters....
