The reason there are so many Ruger upgrades is because they're necessary.

Howdy everyone, if you haven't already, please post your final weights.  Joanne will get the spreadsheet done and we will annouce the winner within the next couple of days.  Sorry for the delay, Joanne started her new job last week, she got a job at a local Elementary School and today was the first day of school, so it's been a little crazy.  Once the winner is announced I will send the money to Rainshadow for the knife and the winner can contact Steve and let them know what they want.

 :yike: :yeah:  Okay, 2nd final weigh-in 232lbs.  Probably would've been a 1 or 2 more lbs if it had not been for the extended weekend and family trip to the coast. :bash: :bash: :bash:  Great job everybody and keep it up even after this is done. :tup:

FC, love the pic you added, you really slimmed down and bulked up. :tup: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:

First off you all did an awesome job.  I hope this helped a little with the motivation and getting ready for this fall.  Drum roll..................................We have a tie.

FC and PlateauNDN BOTH lost 21%.  Congrats to both of you!!!!!!!  I will send the money to Rainshadow early next week.  So $75 each towards the knife of your choice.  You can get with Rainshadow and discuss what you want.  Please post a photo or two of the knives you end up with.  Great job everyone!!!!

Man,
I have been horrible about keeping up with this, life happens is my only excuse.  I did end up losing more, down to about 315 but still working at it.  My offer still stands for the second place winner, looks like Turkeybuster came in next so he can send me a PM and let me know what he might like to have my wife make for him.

Congrats to everyone who participated!


From my original post:
The first one is a standard dream catcher, she also makes one that has leather stretched out in the hoop rather than the "web".  The second picture is a plain leather bound photo album.  The third one is a photo album she made for a wedding.  The fourth picture is the other type of dream catcher.  She can cut out about anything for the front of the album and also has some cool stencils she can use as well.

224  -2  My first weigh in was @ 230 but after an after lunch dump I was impressed enough to step back on the scale.  :chuckle: :chuckle:

I feel better lol!

230 to 224?!? :yike:  What were you eating that had you packing around 6 lbs of.......?  oh wait, second thought, nevermind I don't want to know. :bdid:

rofl! My belly has been gurgling bigtime ever since then too hahaha! 225 was my original goal for elk season :) and I made it with time to spare!

Coming down from an unofficial weight of about 300lbs six months ago has been awesome, I haven't been in this good a shape from a cardiovascular standpoint in my entire life! From a strength standpoint I am doing very well  also.

FC, when I seen this I could not stop laughing!   :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
