St. George's own camelback!

Eat your heart out Paula & Steve! We have our very own Camelback hike right here in Southern Utah! No need to travel to Phoenix anymore for your camelback needs! My sister Annie leads hikes for a weight loss spa in Ivins and so she learns all these cool ones and takes us on the weekends. This one, coincidentally, is named Camelback.... can you possibly guess why?









We didn't make it all the way up it, not because of lack of skill or fitness, but because we tried taking a 2 year old and a 5 month old and it got too hot for them. Cooper, however, can point out every "castus" (cactus) on the trail and he's become very good at dodging them after an incident at Whitney Pockets in March.

Biggest Loser Week 4

They say the proof is in the pictures so here's our before and after pictures for Week 4:























The bottom is Jesse at 258. The top pictures are Jesse 17.2 pounds lighter at 240.8. (6.6% loss)
Kevin started at 273 (bottom)and lost 10.2 lbs (top) and is now at 262.8 (3.7% loss)























Sam started 375 (top)and lost 7 lbs. and is now at 368 (bottom). (1.8% loss)























Eric's before pics are on my computer, so I'll have to see if I can put his on later, but he started 3 weeks ago at 297 lbs. and lost 15.2 lbs. and is now at 281.8 (below). (5.1% loss)I think that Eric takes the cake this week because he's the only contestant that has consistantly lost weight and not gained it back from week to week! Way to go Eric!
