**SORRY I FORGOT TO POST THIS YESTERDAY**
We are feeling a little embarrased about our total of points. Morgan had 22 and I had 25. The rest of you guys ROCK! Guess we better step it up a knotch and get with the program. We only exercised 3 times last week and drinking the water has just been killer! Its fun to see what everyone else has been doing and a good motivator for us to get with it!!! Good luck to all this week.

From the Harwards week #1
Monday, January 28, 2008
That first week is the toughest
I can't tell you how good the Mountain Dew is tasting--well i guess i can try. DAMN GOOD it is amazing how 64ounces can go down so easily. Good Luck to all and see you on the lake in three months. If the biggest loser thing doesn't work, I will buy a turbo for the boat. Sorry--got to go the Mountain Dew is done chilling in the fridge. OUT
From the Perrett's week #1
Ok, So my point total was 44 for the week and it was brutal, no pepsi except for Fri. I had a weak moment after Miles's team got beat. And the WATER curse you Jason Slack!! I actually have to pee as I sit here and try to write.!! My bladder is having a nervous breakdown. I had a meeting in Saratoga Springs the other day and forgot to go before and by the time I got out I couldn't stand up straight. There are no public bathrooms on that side of the lake and NO Trees!! I looked! I am surprised I lived.
Other than that, well the veggies and fruit and exercise stink to and the no Pepsi or chocolate...
But other than that this is Great! I have lost 7 pounds since New Years.
Good Luck To ALL
P
So here are the totals for Taylor and I for this week:

Connie has 55 points
Thanks for the words of encouragement and little bit of pressure.
Love, Connie

From the Slack's week #1
Here are the totals for the Slack house! Jason 54 Cam 52 Let me tell you
the competetion is fierce, since Jason has a treadmill in his office and
a weight room around the corner, it makes it pretty easy for him to get
an extra point here and there. He has been very vigilant with his
"perfect push-up" program, those things kill me! Rachel is cheering me
on with my water. She will ask throughout the day - Mom how many waters
have you had. I too am drinking V8 for lunch. But unlike Chelsey, I
really like it. Along with a piece of whole wheat toast, I am glad to
know what is for lunch. I hate lunch being a stay at home mom. The
water and veggies are by far the hardest for me! Jason made a
spreadsheet that is posted on the fridge, it lists all the elements of
the competition. I check off what I have done during the day, so does
Jason. Rachel checks to see who has done what for the day. She is a
great cheerleader. I can see how I can teach by example - especiall the
friut and veggies.
I want to get together week after next - so that would put us week 3 -
what about lunch on a saturday at Sizzler in East Bay - kind of a 1/2
way celebration and support group. What do you think?
The other day Jason was headed off the the weight room, he told his
assistant where to find him if they needed him. She said why are going
there.... he told her of our competition, needless to say she was
thrilled with the ideas. She was going to start the same thing with her
family. She said many of them are in much need of some health
improvements. I love this.
Keep Moving!! 10,000 steps a day - but do more if you really want the
pounds to move, 10,000 is just to fight off Heart Disease!

From the Beals week #1
Well at the Beal home we WERE actually doing really well until friday hit! We didn't so so well AT ALL this weekend. I ended up with only 38 points and Jesse with 31. But I tell you what!!! After seeing what the totals are from other competitors... I WILL SURELY BE GETTING MY BUTT IN GEAR!!!! I thought I was doing... somewhat okay .. even missing the most of the weekend points... OH NO! I guess I better go get on the treadmill! The only thing that worked for us is JUST DO IT!!! It really isn't that hard. I decided rather than sit down to watch oprah... watch it on the treadmill.... who would have ever guessed!!! Just kidding. It was hard at first to get all that water in.. I felt like I was 9 month pregnant again.. running to the bathroom every second. I havn't had to get up in the night to go to the bathroom since I was pregnant. But I just try to just have a little ALL day long and that has helped. This week my goal is TO NOT LET ANYONE ELSE WIN!!! And maybe that will help me to catch up! I am so impressed that everyone is working so hard. So fun! I think it just makes you want to work that much harder to see everyone else's progress and hearing what they are doing.
As far things that helped us.. with veggies and fruit.. We bought a bunch of V8 (cans) that are 2 servings of f&v each. I have to drink it with a straw.. pointed cleeeeaaar back at the back of my throat... hold my nose.. and just guzzel!!! HA HA!! But that works great! The other thing I love is to make that smoothy/shake that I have posted at the bottom of the blog. It sounds yuck but really its yum! That really helps us get our fruits and veggies in. So now.. I guess we will just go for it hard!
May the BEST LOSER WIN!!!

From the Dunns week #1
It's finally over!! What a week. That really was harder than I wanted it to
be somedays but other days it was easy. As of right now Cade doen't think
he is playing because he says he got a slow start because I didn't give him
enough notice. Whatever I told him he has already paid to play so he better
play. We will see.
I didn't get as many points as I wanted to for this week. It has been a bit
crazy around our house we did home improvements on the Kitchen and Family
Room and it has taken the entire week. I ended the week with 36 points. I
haven't hit the scales yet but I am guessing I haven't moved much there.
So to another week, I am already off to a good start more motivated than
last week and I am ready to get more point and drop some pounds.
I don't have any good recipes yet, but that is because I can't find my
recipe box I will find it today. For motivation - I found if you don't
drink Diet Coke or soda pop, it's easier to get all that water in. The days
that I had a Diet Coke there was no way I could get the water in. But the
days I didn't have a Diet Coke I had more than 64oz of water.
That is all from me.

and so on...
You should be able to get at least 5 points per day and extra points for extra exercise and extra points for using your "wild card".

This is an on your honor point system. Please keep close count of your points... NO CHEATING!
Get Ready...Get Set... Go!
We are getting geared up to start the Harward family BIGGEST LOSER Competition. For any of you who have never seen the hit show, you should start watching! Its a great motivator! On the show, people train hard and eat healthy and try to shed the pounds and get in shape for their weekly weigh-in. At the end of the season, the person that has lost the most body percentage of weight wins big.
We are gearing up to start our own Biggest Loser Competition. This competition isn't going to be just about losing any excess "skin" we might be carrying around, (because there are many who don't have much or any to lose) but its also about losing any bad habits we may have and gain good habit. Its a competition to LOSE or GAIN anything that we feel necessary to better ourselves.
You will each be getting an email in the next week that explains this competition in greater detail.
This competition will be a FUN thing to do as an entire family. If you are already in shape and don't need to lose any weight.. maybe there is a habit you need to kick or gain. If you don't need to work on any of the above... We need you to join in as motivators for all the competitors. If we all work together and motivate each other we can do ANYTHING!!
**Stay tuned for more information**
This is going to be a fun and exciting thing!
