I am still missing lots of people but it is cut off time to determine who our biggest losers are. Please still get me your numbers even if you missed this cut off.
First place was a tie between Soone2bMrsRamos and Amsparky with 3.5 inches gone in a single week!
Second place was also a tie between Tamsanger and Kiku76 with 2 inches lost.
Third place goes to dfeledichuk with 1.875 inches gone.
I will check with our two winners to come up with a nutrition related challenge and an exercise related challenge.
Here is the link to our spreadsheet
