I'm #2!

My office had a Biggest Loser contest between Memorial Day and Labor Day this summer. I had to buy in with $20 and if I hit the contest goal of an 8% weight loss, I would get $15 back. If I hadn't lost the 8%, I would have lost all of my money.

The Biggest Loser gets all the pot...maybe $20 or maybe $5 per person...and we had 23 participants.

So...I made my goal and got my $15 back...we celebrated at On the Border with a Grande Margarita...and chips...and brisket tacos.

The winner...Randy...won about $400 which he donated to his community's food bank. Oh, by the way, he lost 35 pounds! I lost the equivalent of 3 average sized new born babies...

Probably best $5 you ever spent Congrats on losing 3 "average" size newborns ... looks like you'd have had to lose 3 Maye babies to win - but you probably feel better regardless of that $5.

Good work! And it sounds like a fun reward at OTB!
