We have a total of $220 in the pot to be divided 3 ways. 1st place: $110, 2nd place: $66, and 3rd place: $44. I was leinent on getting the money this time because we had to work out how everyone was going to do that. But really to make it fair I need everyone to get their money in by the 2nd weigh in at the latest.
Also here is a total of everyone's pounds lost:
Wayne 4
Mark 13
Patsy 7
Shad 15
Erin 6

Remember we are figuring winners based on percentages not pounds lost, but congrats to everyone on all their hard work!
Sorry if I have made some mistakes on this, I guess you'll have to excuse my pregnant brain. (After I have my baby I'll only have the excuse of...?)
Good luck everyone and keep up the improvements in your health ;)!
