Encouragement, play it forward

By Billie Anthony 

Monday we had 13 ladies weigh in. We had a chapter loss of 10.2 pounds lost, but had a gain of 5.3 pounds. Our net loss was 4.9 pounds. Donna had the best weight loss this week with 4.6 pounds gone. Weigh to go Donna! We have a correction for last week’s best weight loss, Virginia had the best loss. Shirley’s name was drawn for the Two Bit. Our Losers Lotto contest is going well, we have two more blocks to fill and then we will cut the rectangles and draw a lucky losers name out. Our Surprise box had seven stickers marked off. The Ladder Contest has started again. Good luck, Ladies! The chapter challenge for this week is eat an apple or unsweetened apple sauce each day this week. Everyone have a great week and enjoy the nice weather.
