uhhh suspicious!!!! Just kidding guys. I have a cellphone so its hard to think anyone can't take a pic & send a txt message to their email address. In case anyone doesn't know this, from your cellphone you can send a picture message to ANY email address. Simply log in to email & upload the recieved pic. We ALL have cellphones nowadays. Wish I had gotten into this contest. Started around the same time you guys when my son was born, went from 215 to 175 in that short time. Hit the weights!

You lost 40 pounds in 3ish weeks? Did you cut both of your legs off? lol
Well I have a feeling that he was probably referring to the 4 MONTH time frame that we're on (considering that the contest ends in April)... that would be 10lbs a month, and that's hardly unfeasible.
He said started around the same time as you guys, not did it for the same time you guys are gonna do it. I could be wrong but that's how I read it. I was just making a joke...lol
Not a good week for me...... Found out my wife needs cervical spine surgery this Mon. With all the doctors appts and stuff this week, I haven't been able to get to the gym. Gonna try to figure something out for next week. But the wife is gonna need pretty constant care for the next few weeks. I'm still in this, but will be absent from the boards, in general, for a while.

Dude I'm really sorry to hear this! If there is anything you need don't hesitate to pm me and I'll make it happen! Thoughts and prayers for you guys
Thanks for the kind words, guys. I appreciate it. My wife will be alright. It's a surgery that's been a long time coming. She's had back issues for a long time (4-5 years). It's a genetic degenerative disc disorder, cervical spinal stenosis. She has to have her C6 and C7 fused and then some bone shaved off to relieve nerve pressure. She'll only be in the hosp for 2 days but her major recovery will be about 4 weeks. Then a few months of physical therapy. The good news is, there's a 98% chance she'll never have back pain again.
Sorry boys have not really been in the mix. I started a new job with crazy long days and traveling around the country its also a little more labor intensive than my last. Sorry to hear about your wife lilwing hope all goes well I will pray for you.
No pics, but I weighed in at 217 this morning. I gained couple, I know. After a few days when my wife can move around a bit more, I'll be able to sneak over to the gym. Then I'll hit it hard for the next few weeks.
Hey everyone, I am going to have to bow out of the competition. My job has me away from home for extended periods, and I won't be back again till sat. I don't feel it's fair to everyone else to have to wait for me, I will still try to lose weight, and I have no problem sending out the winners there cigars, I just don't feel right holding things up. best of luck to you all.
I think we all understand your decision Bob, and no problem---I updated the front page and will let you know who to send to when it is all over. I think we all also wish you the best this, as in the end its about the health first and the cigars 2nd.
Still waiting on Ship, Rasch, and Hays......Not the best week for most of us, good one for Dan......We're all getting back on track this week fellas, lets hope anyway.

sorry guys. havent been to the gym in like two weeks. Between beeing sick last week i was busy and plastered with snow. and then this week i tweeked my back some how. ill try and get something next time i go there.
Dudes...what's the deal here? Everybody quit the game? I got my workouts in all week, and today had my brother (a personal trainer) in the gym with me to show me a bunch of new stuff. While I had a spotter, I took the opportunity to test my max bench... I 3repped 250lbs. Works for me! Shooting for 300lbs now..
