    I am going to merge two teams into one since both of you only have 2 people left. It will still leave you guys short one person. However, I think this might be the best way to go. So vivacious Vixens will be merged with Let the pounds fall. We will keep the base points from Vivacious Vixens becasue you guys have 10 points more than the other team. I will message them and tell them to comment on this page so you guys can at least have people to talk with. I will be the captain of this team and keep track of all the info. GOOD LUCK IN YOUR LAST 3 DAYS

    Hi! I'm one of the hold outs over in Let the Pounds Fall! I hope everyone is having a good start to the week. I was ill all last week over the holiday (I'm in Massachusetts) and away in Vermont for the weekend. Thankfully it didn't result in a gain. I've done today's challenge and I'm looking forward to finishing the week strong. How's everyone else today?
