Sorry no pictures.

So I have no pictures right now, but I do plan on added some later today or tomorrow. I just had a few minutes to write a quick note. So I joined a weight loss challenge and it laster for 7 weeks. I went to the finale weigh in last night and even though I did not win anything I did lose 20.8 pounds and 14 inches total. I am very proud of myself and I am going to keep on going. I have so much energy and I just feel better about myself. I think the competition was rigged though. I am not saying this because I did not win anything but the person who won is a 10 year old boy. The winner was based on body fat % lost not the actuall pounds, but can you lose 5.5 % body fat total and only have lost .1 pounds. I don't think so, but if it is possible then good for him. The garden is going great, we have been enjoying strawberries, cucumbers, crooked neck squash, rasberries, peas, and tomatoes. We have also enjoyed some of the potatoes in the field next to our house. We are so blessed to be able to grow such a great garden and enjoy the yummy fresh produce. Well got to go take the kids to swim lessons, just two more days and we are done. I will post again later today or tomorrow with some pictures.

Great job Stacey! Yeah, what is up with letting a 10 year old boy win? That sounds messed up to me. They should of gone just by pounds lost. I can't believe that you have been eating homegrown strawberries and rasberries, that is great!
