What to do with $700?

2 months ago, I started a "biggest loser" style contest with some neighbors. Austin saw I was having a hard time, so he asked if he could join, to support me. He started 10 days later than the rest of us and he didn't have that much to lose. He researched an exercise and eating plan for me to follow.

In 11 weeks, I lost 26 lbs and 6.2% body fat. Austin lost 15 lbs and 8.8% body fat. Since our contest was about losing body fat, Austin was the big winner!!!! (but he did say I could use some of the money for new clothes - since nothing I have fits me anymore.)

Congratulations, Austin!!!

Good for both of you. Patti, you look SO good. I can hardly wait to see you in some of your new clothes. My parents just joined the Saratoga Springs Biggest Loser, I hope they do as well as you guys did.

Way to go! That is awesome for the both of you! That is sweet Austin did it to support you. I'm sure it made it so much easier with him by your side pushing you forward.

Love the kids new haircuts. Good for you. I think little girls hair is hard to cut. I've done Kenz a few times & never love it. I can't believe how big Holden is getting.
