Long Time, Big Victories

The last post of the Lima Loser blog ended with a simple plea: HELP!

I knew I was headed to Washington, DC for a week and that the temptations of fine dining and airport kiosks lay ahead. But I thought of you. And thought of you.

And I really, really tried. I ordered things without this or with this on the side. I barely made it. But I am happy to report that when I returned I weighed in immediately the next day and I lost HALF A POUND!

Now, two sticks of butter isn't exactly a huge moral victory, but under the circumstances I was pleasantly surprised. Overall, the Lima Losers are doing really well.

Here are the tallies so far:

Total pounds lost: 40.3
Percentage of team weight: .0329%
(If you really must know our combined starting weight, the math is up to you.)

This includes a SUPER IMPRESSIVE weight loss this week by Lima Loser Berlin Carroll - 7.8 pounds!

My personal total is just over 17 pounds and I am noticing a difference in clothes. Donations are lagging a bit behind. Our online total so far is $140. We have just the month of March to go so hopefully people will get clicking!
