FINAL WEIGH-IN OF THE SESSION!!

Hi ladies,

Well, we have made it to the final weigh-in of the session and I know you are all anxious to find out who will win the big money. Show up tomorrow morning in the Bridal Suite after second service and we will get everyone weighed and the winner will be announced on the blog later this week!

Also, I need to note that this will be the last weigh-in until the Fall. I cannot commit to being at church every Sunday with the difficulties we are having with this pregnancy. If someone else wants to take over, by all means, please let me know!! Unless otherwise noted, we will start again sometime in September and I am working on making it even more rewarding...

Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
Tami

Memorial Day Weekend

Hi ladies! Yes, we are weighing this weekend, so be sure to come by the cafe and weigh-in. Because the children's classes will be moved in a few weeks, we may have to move our weigh-in location. If so, I will update the blog. Keep checking the blog to find out our winners and updated information on weigh-ins!

You guys are doing great! Keep up the good work!!

On a roll! (Apparently, not a dinner roll...)

Well, she has done it again!

PAM

has won the first three weeks worth of weigh-ins!! It has been a VERY close race, so don't lose hope! I will post percentages later this week. It seemed that last summer it was motivating to have a percentage out there!

Keep trying, don't give up!

Winner for First Week of Spring Session!!

And the winner for May 4 is...

PAM!!

Yea! Congratulations on almost FIVE pounds of weight loss this week! Tell us, what is your secret? Leave a comment and give some of the other players advice! Everyone did great this week, but we can all use help from time to time!

Pam won $24 this week. There is cash up for grabs every week - don't miss out on your chance to win it! Just think of what $24 can do...pay for the next 4 weeks of weigh-ins, pay for a movie for you and the significant other, maybe pay off part of a bill or something else you need. The possibilities are endless. If you guys can get your friends to join, there will be more up for the taking AND more money in the end of session cash prize. Is it all about money? NO. Does it help? ABSOLUTELY!!

This week is Mother's Day and we are STILL weighing. Immediately following second service, I will be anxiously awaiting your arrival in the cafe. See you then!!

Spring Session Information

Hello everyone! This Sunday, we will end up weighing at an alternate location. For now, we will meet in room 23 immediately after second service and I will probably have everyone step into the bathroom next door to weigh on a hard surface (for accuracy). There will be flyers with more information at the Welcome Center in the Great Hall and I will post more information when I finish the new flyer for anyone who is new to our game! This session will be challenging and fun!

Spring Session

HERE COMES SUMMER!

It is almost time to drag out the swimsuit (which, in my case includes a pair of shorts and a T-shirt that goes on OVER my swimsuit) and you may be wanting to shed an extra 5 or 55 pounds before you step foot in a pool! Now is the time to do it! The Spring Session starts this Sunday, immediately following second service. We are weighing in the cafe. More information will be posted later this week, for those of you who have not participated before and for those of you who have - we are keeping in place the "new" rules from the Winter Session.

I look forward to seeing you all on Sunday!

Winners and $ Due

Hi Everyone!

Well, this week is our last week of the Winter Session. It was a lot more difficult this time around! With the change in the rules, it encouraged people to lose weight consistently (and did not reward yo-yo dieting), but I think it was harder to "get back on the wagon" if you fell off! We will talk about whether or not we are going to continue the game now or wait until the Fall tomorrow. Below are the winners for 2/10, 2/17 and 2/24.

2/10 - LAURIE!
2/17 - No winner
2/24 - LAURIE!

Laurie is really on a roll! (I know, some of you are wishing she was on a dinner roll, but apparently, she is not.)

Here is the $ owed tomorrow. Once everyone pays in full, I will distribute winnings and the end-of-session rewards will be given. I expect to do that next week, so everyone be sure to swing by the cafe right after church. We will wait on everyone before we distribute and announce, so let me know if you will not be there.

TT - Prepaid whole session.
LI - Including the $5 tomorrow, will owe $30 to close session.
M CL - Including the $5 tomorrow, will owe $20 to close session.
SH - Including the $5 tomorrow, will owe $35 to close session.
M CA - Including the $5 tomorrow, will owe $45 to close session.

We had two weeks where I am not collecting and none of us weighed - 12/23 and 1/13.

See you tomorrow!

Winners...

The winners for the last few weeks are...

1/20 - LAURIE!
1/27 - LAURIE!
2/3 - There was not a winner due to no positive percentages. The winnings for that week will be held over until 2/10.

I am in the process of getting the 2/10 weights, so that will be posted soon. I have also put down everyone's initials and how much I show people owe. If you feel your total should differ, please let me know! The totals do NOT include the $5 for this coming week.

TT - Prepaid - none due.
LI - Owe $20
M CL - Prepaid through 2/10. Will owe starting this coming week.
SH - Owe $20
M CA - Owe $35

If you cannot pay it all this week, don't worry. Just do the best you can. Once all money is collected, the rewards will be handed out. This will allow me to keep the books straight!

Thanks and I hope to see you all Sunday!

I haven't forgotten you!

Tonya has given me the totals from the last few weeks and I will get them updated tomorrow. Winners will be announced and I will let you know how much you owe from the weeks I haven't been there to collect!



Thanks for your patience!

I didn't forget...

Congratulations to the following WLG Members for their winnings!

December 30 Winner:
Melonie!!
January 6 Winner:
Shannon!!
Way to go! You guys are doing great!

Don't forget - we did not weigh in on Sunday the 13th. All winnings from that day will go to the winner on 1/20. You can double your money, if you have a great week. Also, feel free to tell your friends about our game. You can get in at any time and it is a simple motivational tool for those wanting to shed a few extra pounds.

If you have not given me your goal for this session, please email me. Our session goes through 2/24 and one of our prizes has to do with your current weight in relation to your goal. When you email me your goal, please note if it is your overall goal or just for this session.

I will not be weighing everyone on Sunday (I will be out of town), so unless you are opposed, I am asking one of our players to weigh-in. If you do not want someone else to weigh you, I will gladly find you when I get into town and get your weight. Thanks!
