One more week and the contest is over… Hallelujah!!!
I’m really trying to hold on…and I know I’m going to win but listen to me I will never enter another contest again in my life! People are so shrewd and jealous it makes me sick. For those that don’t know I’m in a BIGGEST LOSER contest at CURVES and I can’t wait until August 1, 2007. I won’t go into details but I’m sure you all can pretty much imagine how it is with a lot of petty women who really don’t exercise and are so jealous of others accomplishments (UGH) it makes me want to scream!!!!!!!!!! I just really want to lose these 5 lbs this week and then I’m 20 pounds ahead of everyone!!!!!! UGH UGH UGH UGH!!!!!! Just pray for me…..!!!!
On the bright side of things…I spent a whole lot of money this weekend lol. We finished the landscaping on the house; bought new shutters (a rich burgundy color) and I bought my daughter a laptop and me a new computer WHEW!!!!! Anyway of course I went shopping again…but I’m in between 16 and 14 and its hard to shop so I will stop for a while!!!! It’s a rainy Monday here on the EAST COAST, but still a great day! Have a wonderful day buddies!!!

You are doing great, don’t let those petty women put you off. You’ll lose that 5lbs and reach all your goals I just know it!

If they gave no competition the only people they should be upset with is themselves. Way to go, you should be proud about blowing any chance of competition out of the water!
Hang in there Sweetie…I know it is hard, but instead of letting those womenget to you, use their shrewedness for motivation. You are doing so fantastic and they shouldn’t ba able to (or want to) take the wind out of your sails. So everytime they start in just put that frustation into your work out. Ha! that will teach em!
Good luck! You are doin great!
YOU GO. I don’t know why people are so chidish. We are proud of you and want the best for you. You are working so hard you deserve recognition for the the job you are doing, JUst remember. MEOW. Some people are catty. Big hug, Marge.
You just hang in there Angela…you WILL lose those 5 pounds…I know you will. And you will walk out of that contest knowing that it was by YOUR hard work that you got where you are. Those other ladies just need to keep on stepping.
Shopping sounds like fun! I’m kinda holding off on shopping because I want to lose a few more pounds before I go. At the rate I’m going it might be a couple of months before I get to go, but go I will! And, if I can’t, I’ll have to see about coming up to your house and shopping for you.
Keep on doing such a great job Ang…it really shows!
Love ya!!

Hey, I know how that goes! I was in a “Biggest Loser” contest too. We went from January through June, and we each were supposed to put $2.00 into the “pot”. Whoever lost the most was supposed to get the money. Well, it turned out that not only was I the only one who actually put $2.00 in each week, I was the only one that lost any weight. Now I have no money at all to show for the contest and lost what $ I put into it (I have no idea what the girl running the contest actually did with MY money). BUT, I do have the weight loss to show for it and am happy for that!
I hope your experience goes much, much better than mine did! :o)

wow 20lbs ahead of the competition would be amazing! i wish you loads of luck this week (though its not really luck you need) and those other women are just jealous. obviously. x
I’m so sorry you had such a negative experience. I don’t understand the jelousy and pettiness. Even just participating in the contest is supposed to be about a competition with yourself not a reason to get jelous over someone’s success. We should all be happy for the other people….and try to steal their secrets!!!!
Hey Angie…girl, I hate the haters!!! You shake it off lady cause they’ll all be left in the dust! I just love me sum shutters, cant wait to pu them up on my house! Congrats on your purchases and Im so proud of you! Hugs!
