It’s Weigh Day!
By Wyatt Earp | June 28, 2008
A few more pounds, and I’ll fit into the chest plate.
To be more specific, it is the final weigh day before the end of our Blogger Blubber Battle on Monday. To recap, Sssteve challenged me to a six-month weight-off on January 1st. In the six months that have followed, I have transformed from a pudgy bastard into a lean, mean blogging machine. Since a lot of my competitors have not posted recent stats, I have no idea where I am in the standings, but today’s stats have me smiling from ear to ear.
196 Pounds.
That’s down forty pounds from my original weight. FORTY POUNDS, KIDS! Today I am a god.
Okay, it has been a lot of hard work, too. I have been following my Weight Watchers Points System religiously, and have been walking every day for a few months now – escalating from a mile at first to seven miles yesterday. Oh yeah, the ice hockey? That’s been a big help, too.
I’m not touching the money yet – we still have two days to go, but I have to be completely honest: I’m winning this damned thing.
And there’s nothing anyone can do to stop me. Bam!

Wooo hoooo!!!!
We rock!
RT is right. Well done to all of you! I’m impressed and happy for y’all and I know it hasn’t been easy.
So what’s next? Do you keep going, or call it quits?
RT – Damned straight!
Snigs – No, it hasn’t, but it has been well worth it.
RFTR – The contest ends on Monday. Personally, I’m gonna keep going. The lightest I have been in ten years was 187 (1998). If I get down to 185-180, I’ll try maintenance for that weight.
OK big boy…time to put up. RT has gone a published her before and afters, how ’bout you do the same? All we get outta you are the puffys pics. Let’s see the slim and svelte new you.
Wolf – They’re coming. After pics are easy. I’ll get them for Monday, but I am looking for something really close to Christmas to represent the pre-diet Wyatt. Either way, you’ll get Before and After on Monday.
You are like 80% of the man you used to be!
Great job Dude.
Good job Wyatt! This is the year I lose 20 lbs myself. Been running every day for two weeks now.
Yes, Yes you have won this thing! E-mail me your address! Congrats I am impressed!! Way to go bud!!
Russell looks hot in that pic…
But good job!!!!!!
Admiral – We’ll see. I have the before-and-after pics all ready for posting tomorrow. The before pic actually made me sick to my stomach.
Sssteve – I haven’t won anything yet, chief. But thanks. It’s been a lot of hard work.
MMP – Thank you.
