    I just did my final tracking for those of you that actually checked in. Way to go for sticking it out. I know that December was the hardest month yet for many people. We started this month with 134 people. However, we only ended with 46 people! See you guys are amazing for sticking it out!

    Here is our final Spreadsheet for December.... https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqfM2VasNXWbdGJlN1dXbVpfRzBYQUE3VXdBR1Q5cVE&hl=en_US#gid=0

    I have been running this challenge since at least June and it was running well before me coming along. Sittingduck76 is the first person I have seen to have lost 18.7 pounds in one month! :drinker: That is outstanding and amazing! 6.99% of their body went missing with December! You are truthfully the biggest loser! Please post in the Jan. board what you would like the first challenge of the New Year to be.

    Our second biggest loser dropped yet another double digit number. Congrats to thebigbige for dropping 15 pounds and 5.18% of your body in December! :drinker: :drinker: You totally rocked it and I can't even think about how to pull off that big of drop.

    LadyOmNom is in third place with a drop of 10 pounds and 6.10% of Body weight gone!

    :drinker: Congrats again to our December Biggest Losers:drinker: Whatever you did seems to work!

    :smile: :smile: :smile: This month we also had 6 people reach their goals!! :smile: :smile: :smile:

    I hope to see you guys in the January Challenge!
