Week 28

Week 28Previous Weight: 259 lbs
Current Weight: 257 lbs
Change: 2 lbs lost
Total: 103 lbs lost

Lessons learned from this weekend's Tour de Vail/Buffalo Lake Days:

  • Owning a bottle of sunblock doesn't do you much good if you leave it on the bathroom counter when you go away for the weekend.
  • If you know, two months beforehand, that you're going to be required to walk 3 miles at once, go ahead and get some comfortable tennis shoes.
  • Bright red skin really screws up the color balance in a picture.
I know these both seem obvious, but people forget. Okay, I forgot. At least I've got my annual sunburn out of the way. Now I can stay inside for the next 11 1/2 months.

It was good to se you this weekend-I just wish I could have spent more time wiht you.Now you don;t have to worry about next year's Tour-you already have tennis shoes-and feel free to ask-I have sunblock, lots of it!

Actually the color looks good on you.I was beginning to think you were a vampire or something.Since you already have a base, maybe you should think about walking your cat in the evenings.She could use it! I've already had a lot of people ask me what kind of diet you're on and I've been referring them to your blog. Keep up th good work-Love you, MOM

Too funny! A little bit of color doesn't hurt you, though...and i have to agree with mom--the cat could definitely use an intervention.

Looking good as usual--you are seriously starting to look like a pretty tough dude. Not somebody i'd want to mess with (that is, if i didn't know that you were really a teddy bear who used to fall down when people acted like they were going to tickle him).

Thanks for taking care of my husband (and me a little) on Saturday night!

Great. That's just great, Jen. People didn't need to know that.

Trust me, brother...anyone who knows you already realizes you're a big teddy bear. You may have a few people trying to run up and tickle you, but you should be able to run away...
