 Nice prize Kent. I know it's over but I'm still working on it and happy to say I've dropped another 2.4 pounds.

Amazing pot Mike!

 Me too, my doc told me 20 more lbs would be ideal for a guy my size, since then I've lost 7 of that. But I really would like to see another 35 lbs which I don't think I have been that weight since freshman year in high school.

I've got a great cigar collection - it's actually not a collection, because that would imply I wasn't going to smoke every last one of 'em.

great job dudes. I lost 65 a few years back and it's tough to keep it off but looking back at how great I felt about finally getting there is my motivation.

Post office attempted delivery to my office Saturday and I thought for sure they'd re-attempt today, so no pic today as promised, hopefully tomorrow...

 They found out what's in the box and spent all weekend smoking them. Better change this thread to cigar loss 2015. Hopefully you do get them today.

They made it today.  Wow Mike, this was an impressive package to open, thank you very much for running this contest.  Honestly, the prospect of winning this prize really got my butt in gear 6 months ago to lose some weight.  The double reward of the weight lost and the big pile of NICE sticks you sent is overwhelming.  Thanks again.

Bumping this thread to say that I was down to 315 this morning. That's 60lbs so far.

That's spectacular Mike! Guess the idea of running a contest to get motivated has worked. I saw Kent this past weekend and he's looking good too.

Started back on track this week now. Still shooting for 250.

I'm up about 7 pounds too, need to get back on that horse.  Just no momentum now.  This helps encourage me to get back to it though, way to go Mike!
