The only rule change is that the sugar rule now counts for 2pts. rather than one.

As many of you know.... Christy and Aaron won. They will split the money. Good job. You guys did amazing.
One problem. I don't think I saved your address' from when you sent me your entrance fee. Can both of you email them to me and I'll send your checks out right away.

Next, I need some input. When should we start round 2? I was thinking in a week. But, now I'm wondering if we should wait until Kenna and Maria have their babies. ( a month ) Let me know what ya'll think.
Thanks

Sorry to post so late! My husband and I went away for the weekend. I used my free day on Saturday when we went out to eat dinner. When we stayed at the Bed and Breakfast, I was able to eat the breakfast they served, minus the syrup, sweet bread and orange juice. We were able to get in some extra exercise with some walks around town, which was nice. I am loving the extra energy I have with this new healthy lifestyle! I have also lost about 6 pounds, and my clothes are fitting better. I got all 72 points this week.
Read more...50.
Good job ALENA. You've been improving. Just stop making sweets for the kiddos and you won't be as tempted.
I got 59 points this week. My best score. It's funny because I kind of gave up and I think that's why I did better because I wasn't stressing. Happy Memorial Day to everyone!!
By the way....who won??? Where's Christie's Points???
Okay, I'm a little ashamed to say that I kind of lost motivation this week. I figured the winners wouldn't budge the last week since they were in the lead anyway. So, since I wasn't going to win I wasn't as strict with myself. I didn't exercise one day because I was way too tired and then I had sugar on another day. My total was 69 for the week! Still not too bad, eh?
Read more...Seventy One Points to end this challenge. I am embarrassed to say I had some candy bar salad at the CRAB CRACK. The thing that makes me feel good is that once I lose the point for eating sugar I don't just eat sugar the rest of the day in a free for all fashion I behave the rest of the day. I am a winner.
Read more...I (Aaron) had another perfect week! 72 points! This was the most challenging week for me. The hardest thing is when im at work and have access to free soda, which i love, but i have stayed true. Well, since a couple people really want me to post my experiences here it goes. I really don't have any tricks or secrets expect that i don't have a sweet tooth so sugar and candy isn't really that hard for me to give up. I sometimes have to go jogging at 11:00 at night because i have school and then work right after so that is the only time for me to work out. Other than that, eating well proportioned meals was something we needed to improve to start this diet, but since we have started i feel a lot healthier by eating more vegetables and whole wheat. I haven't been keeping tack of my weight so i couldn't tell you how much i lost but i do feel a lot better physically since the beginning. My motivation has been my ego, i guess. I am competitive so i like to win and finish what i do.
Kayla got 65 haha I kinda gave up sad day huh but thank you for the experience I am going to see if I will do this if we end up doing it a third time!! thanks
Well, Nick did AMAZING this go round. He got the 71 pts. He did AMAZING. He just had one meal that really wasn't a meal. (cereal for dinner) so he lost one point. bummer. I got 60. I shared his free day with him and had sweets today but, unfortunately had some on Monday too. It CLEARLY wasn't that great for me. If only I could be a better exerciser. I will next time though. I really plan on doing A LOT better.
MaryEllen: 64

It's been a good round. I think the purpose of the challenge has stuck. Mom says that she definitely feels guilty when she puts sugar in her mouth and I think that's good. I have been WAY more conscious about what I put in my mouth as well and how little I was exercising. Drinking water was hard for me but, I feel like I got the hang of it by the 3rd week. I'm going to keep up with the challenge to prep myself for round 2. It's a lifestyle change and I want to make it a good habit.
Thanks for joining me everyone! It's been fun to hear from everyone and see how we've been doing. Congrats to the winners!
