Well everybody, today Barry and Jeanette left for a few days of relaxation and I am inclined to think (since I just turned around and put on a pound right after breaking down into the 150's) that we all might do well with taking a little break!
Actually, Jeanette and I have been discussing some possible changes to the format of our little connection place here, so let's just kick back for a few weeks and then start up again with a will in a month's time. I'm suggesting our next weigh-in day be September 15th. That gives us just over a month to decide what kind of a surprise we want to present on the blog on the 15th!
STOP! DON'T CLICK AWAY YET!
THERE'S ONE MORE THING TO DO:
In order to go out with a bang and come back in with a swoosh, we need predictions! Please submit your hopeful prediction for September 15th in the comment section of this post. No specific numbers! Simply state your prediction of having gained, having lost or having earned the "Elmo Award":
And to close this Olympic round, let's take a look at the scores:
Jeanette: ....Started with ... 187.4 ...... Ended with ... 182.9 ......
Total lost ... 4.5
Carol-Ann: Started with ... 164.7 ...... Ended with ... 160.8 ......
Total lost ... 3.9
Roger: .........Started with ... 233.4 ...... Ended with ... 229.4 ......
Total lost ... 4.0
Pat: ..............Started with ... 160.5 ...... Ended with ... 157.5 ......
Total lost ... 3.0
Andrea: ......Started with ... 186.4 ...... Ended with ... 182.2 ......
Total lost ... 4.2
Michelle: ...Started with ... 213.0 ...... Ended with ... 214.0 ......
Total gain ... 1.0
Elmo: ..........Started with ....... 3.8 ...... Ended with ....... 3.8 .......
Total lost ... 0.0
Three Cheers for the winners of GOLD, SILVER and BRONZE
And because the Gold medalist has been both a Canadian and American citizen at different times of her life, we are all standing at attention while both anthems are played and we are ALL WINNERS!
By a special note of encouragement, Michelle, if you look at our scores you will see that we have all taken turns going up and down! Next time we tally up for our medals you shall have more than one week's worth of points to count!
Congratulations, all! Don't forget to enter your prediction in the comment section! See you in September!

I predict a LOSS!
But first I am going to indulge in a HUGE portion of the delicious meatloaf that Kinza has just made and pulled out of the oven!
I also predict a loss!
A break will be nice. Good luck to everyone and I'll see you all in September!
Well girls take a good break and come back lighter.
Maybe i 'll get an iron medal!LOL
I can't believe I won the Gold! Wow! Thanks!
I am also feeling hopeful and predicting a loss.
I hope Michele will be all healed up by September 15.
(PS: Barry and I had a very relaxing time doing whatever we pleased, sleeping as long as we wanted to, and browsing in secondhand and antique stores! Coming home, however, has been quite another story...!)
Good luck, everyone!
I predict I will be the same weight. However, September 15 is my first day of annual vacation, so I hope to spend my two weeks of vacation de-stressing so that I can stop seeking comfort in food!1
Pat
When are we supposed to weigh in again??
Hi Andrea! Our break is supposed to be until September 15, so I guess we have one more week to really hit it! I sure hope you have been doing better at losing than I have!
