UBP 2010 Biggest Loser winner--Christy


So what's a party without games?  Let's play the Biggest Loser.  I win.  Just kidding.  Christy wins.


I hope everyone feels good about their week.  Hope everyone worked out, exercised in some small way, and ate right.

I tried to drink plenty of water.  How did you do?  It really helped me feel fuller longer.  I also drank lots of coffee...and we all know what coffee does...You know...go.

The thing I learned this week is that I need to find the foods that are most filling with fewest calories.  DUH.  But I'm a slow learner.

I had several people want to join...and anyone is welcome...but they didn't leave me their email address. If you sent me your weight, can you send me your email address?  Thank you.

Our pot is $25 in gift certificates.  If you've thought about using your Swagbucks for something this would be a great thing to use them for.  Donating $5 to the pot WILL motivate you.  This week I only had one small dessert because I didn't want to lose because I've got some money riding on this.  I'm cheap!

Come back on Wednesday for a big challenge with a prize. Also, if you'll fan Blessed Quiver on facebook or Twitter I'll be posting daily exercise challenges to get us moving.  A few of us did some last week and it was so fun and motivating I thought we should continue. 

On to the winners.  I have NOT gotten everyone's weight.  So check back ON THIS POST throughout the day. I will update as new stats come in.

Christy    5.23%
Jill           2.26%
Amy       1.67%
Me         1.60%
Amber    1.23%
Tara        1.18%
Yara       1.16%

Mary        .74%

anything with fiber will make you feel fuller longer, if ya didnt all ready know. I try and snack on veggies or something healthy in between meals if I am starving. It is suppose to boost metabolism too! I have had a hard time with my water, that is my biggest challenge so far. I got some crystal light to give it some flavor and its getting me to drink a little more.

YAY. Congrats. That's awesome! I'm officially in maintenance now, so life is a little better...100-200 more calories a day. I was doing a difficult 1000 calories a day for the past two months.

Hi, my email address is mcmeadfamily@gmail.com. Starting weight 136. Weight today 135.2. Beans, flaxseed, veggies, protein all help fill you up and keep you full. My biggest challenge is avoiding sugar as much as possible. And since i am breastfeeding exsculsilvey I feel SO hungry alot of the time, so I do tend to overeat at times. I also need to drink more water.
