Well, we made it! We survived 12 weeks of what some of you might think is insanity! As for myself, I am so happy that I did this challenge. It has been extremely helpful for me. I definitely reached some goals that I had set and know I have been so much more healthy than I was before.
This is the time we all have been waiting for...who will win the big bucks? I have divided the prize money as fairly as possible. First place will get $250, second place will get $175, third place will get $100 and the drawing winner will get $50. (I even used fractions to figure the totals! Ok, Crae helped me!) And I will not be involved in the drawing. I don't want to be the one responsible (plus I want a shot at winning too) so I have asked a neighbor who didn't do the contest to do the drawing for us. After everyone has posted their scores for this week, we can figure out the prizes. So...post your points SOON! I am leaving to go out of town but will be back Tuesday night. I will get prizes to people on Wednesday. If you haven't posted by then, then you won't be entered into the drawing. Sound good??
I know some of you are wanting to continue this contest starting now - you are awesome! As for the rest of you, if you are wanting to do something similar in a couple of months, check back with me. I have had some requests for a few changes (like less sleep and adding points for things like service etc.) so we will change it up a little. Life is a little crazy for me right now to take this on again but I would love to in the summer when my kiddos are out of school and I am not working.
Thank you all for participating! It has been fun, motivating, and very beneficial! You are all amazing! Post your LAST week points here! I'll do a post soon announcing the winners! Wahoo!
Congrats everyone! Good work and for those who won, you are awesome to have been able to do so great.
ReplyDeleteSad to say I had 154. Thank you Spring Break and traveling.
Crossing my fingers for the drawing win!
I got 316 this week, I wanted to do better for the last week, but Spring Break and traveling didn't help! I am also hoping to win the drawing :)
ReplyDeleteI got 352. I have been thinking about doing this again right now with some of you, but I think I'm going to take a little break. If you decide to do it again later on, I'm in! Good luck everyone and good job!! :)
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you'd be able to pull off a perfect score this week even with company at your house! I'm impressed!
DeleteI made my sister in law go for a walk with me. It helps that she is kind of a health nut! I figured that I'd done good so far and this was our last week so I couldn't blow it! :)
DeleteWay to go, everyone!! This was a fabulous competition! I lost 12.4 pounds, and I just have 53 more to go.
ReplyDeleteI lost a little sleep the other night, but then I took a two-hour nap that day to get the points back, so I'm at 352. Congrats, Jerrilyn, on a perfect score! I definitely want to do it again, so Jenny, please let us know. It seems that Kim and her mom might be the only ones who want to do it with me now, so I'm not sure what to do.
I am very proud of all of you, maybe not so proud of myself. But it did help me get some routine and hopefully I can keep it. 327 Kristen
ReplyDeleteWow, we are done! You guys are awesome! This last month was a killer for me, espeically this last week. So much for finishing strong, but I'm proud that I finished, there were a couple weeks that I wanted to quit, but didn't! I also weighed myself today and reached my goal for weight loss, so that was exciting! Also, I know that I've developed a few good habits along the way, that I wouldn't have otherwise! So a big thank you to Jenny for putting this whole thing together and giving me the motivation to do what I did! However, I'm ready for a little break too, but come summer I'm sure I will be in need a some extra motivation!

I got a 287. So much for the strong finish! :).
ReplyDelete352. That vacation to St George doesn't seem like as good of an idea as it did two weeks ago!
ReplyDeleteI got 278 this week. I really enjoyed this challenge and seeing us all do better than our normal. Wahoo to those big top winners! Congrats! Let me know if you start it up in a little while. I am ready for a small break but I'm sure I will want to do it again sometime. Thanks Jenny for putting this together and Thanks Jan for keeping the records. :) Happy Spring Break!
