Man of Steel

Ever have one of those moments when you are sitting, all alone and you do something really stupid? You know, one of those moments that you look around just to make sure you really are alone so that no one saw it?

Yeah, me neither.

I got to say, travel does not make trying to avoid sugar, fruit and carb's very easy. They are everywhere.

At least at home, I can not buy the bread or pick up some sugar-free jello. On the road, there is little I can do.

-----

Why am I avoiding those things you ask? Well, cause this guy (the groom) and I were teasing each other a couple of weeks ago. I think he was calling me tubby and I was calling him chubby...or maybe it was fatty and jiggly. Or maybe it was both.

Anyway, I told him that I was going to come back to Louisiana in 6 weeks and I was going to be looking better and have lost more weight than him...Kyle, never being one to back down from a challenge, accepted.

Claire heard about this and wanted a piece of the action. Then Sarah (the bride above and Claire's baby sister) wanted in. Then it was the girl's father. We also drug Pamela (the middle one) and her boy (the candidate) into the fray. Suddenly it was a bet with lots of trash talk going on.

So, on the Friday of Labor day, there will be a weigh in. The person who looses the most weight by body percentage wins $120, second place gets their money back ($20) and last place becomes the drink and food getter.

Not gonna lie Sarah, I am looking good. No longer jello, more like steel.

Dude,

Do not, I repeat Do Not lose more weight percentage than your wife.

The $120 bucks aint worth it.

Shouldn't the last place victim fall prey to the ruthless workout routine the rest of you use to secure the top two spots? Wouldn't fetching food and drink defeat the point?

Eh, it's Labor Day. Dive into that tub of coleslaw head first!

I think I'm rooting for all of you! I expect to see pics of a svelte, toned group in a couple of weeks :)!
