We got to meet Roger at the Health & Wellness Festival in B'ham this afternoon. Man, he's really skinny now!!! And a really nice guy too. We chatted for a few minutes and I asked him what he is doing now that he's home to help him stay in shape. He has recently bought his own equipment so that he can workout at home. He mentioned an elliptical machine and a bike right off hand. He's still losing weight, although he says that he really needs to just be in maintenance now. He says he knows he shouldn't, but he finds himself just skipping eating if his choices are not healthy. I think he finished the competition somewhere in the 190's and at 6'3", he's really thin.

I told him that I always carry around my stash of South Beach cereal bars and he asked to see one so he could look at the numbers. He apparently hadn't come prepared for standing there talking, signing and posing for 5 hours, so I left the South Beach bar with him. He slipped it in his shirt pocket. Later, when passed by on our way out, he was munching on the South Beach bar. Hope he liked it!!!

Here's the picture DH took of me and DD with Roger.

How cool, Rebekah!!

It sounds like he isn't fully into the groove on how to do this in the real world.

Well, you'd think there would be some healthy food available at a 'Health & Wellness Festival', right??? Wrong. We went knowing there would be some healthy cooking demonstrations and thinking that a few of the local restaurants would probably be there and we could grab a healthy lunch while we were there. Some of the chefs were there for the demos, but that was the extent of the healthy food that was there.

I'm kind of hoping that he will just go buy a box of SB cereal bars to keep with him all the time. I told him that we all know it's not good to go without eating for long periods of time. Hopefully, he found a decent place for dinner later. I'm assuming it will take him a while to come to the reality of eating healthy in the real world.

I was just trying to add my name in my board settings. I'm adding it to the top of the personal signature box, but every time I do that, it puts my name in between my 2 tickers. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong??? It's got me baffled.

Thank you for compliment, Julie!!! Although, if you asked my DD, she would tell you I'm pretty old!!! I was hesitant to post that picture because I think I look old in it!!! So for someone to say the opposite, well, that just makes my day!!! Maybe if I lose enough weight, I can take some more years off...LOL!!!
