WHAT WERE WE THINKING?!

It started off so innocent. It started off "fun". It started like many things do, with good intentions...But one thing led to another. And now I type before you as a man of regret and fear! 

Forgive me Father, I know not what I did...

T'was the week before Christmas and all through the house
not a creature was stirring not even a...Melvin
(much bigger, louder and clumsier than a mouse, but hey, he's ours).

Sunni, talking with the folks and I surfing the net,
we schemed and dreamed about our Christmas bet.

The T-Shirts were made the bandannas bought,
now to sell the family on the vision we had caught.

A dare, a challenge, a competition if you will...
nothing simple that could be fixed with a pill.  

The 4 Johnsons and 2 Coopers struck a 6 month target,
Half a year of weight loss and healthy living we will not forget. 


Oh MY, What did we get ourselves into!!!  
We will be our own, Biggest Losers!

You can totally do this! All of you! And what a great way to keep each other accountable, if not majorly compete against one another!

You'll have to keep us posted with pics of your progress.

I'm cheering you on!
