My Biggest Loser

That's right! Kurt entered A.F.'s biggest loser competition this week and now it's up to him to drop some pounds. You'll never believe what he did to prepare for the first weigh in, he gained 13.5 pounds in a week and a half!!! On purpose!!! Just so he would have more weight to lose. Wow, now that's something to be proud of! How many people do you know can gain over 13 pounds in less then 2 weeks? That's my hubby!
I really do think that he has a chance of winning this, because in the past when he's put his mind to losing the weight it drops off him fast. It's the keeping the weight off that he struggles with. He has a hard time believing that you can't eat Oreos in a bowl with milk like cereal and still stay skinny.
The winner wins $600 and a two year gym membership, and maybe even gets to ride in the parade! (I don't really know about that last part, but it sounded cool.)

He was headed to the gym two nights ago right after he said good night to Raegan and had this conversation (I was listening at the door).
Raegan, "Dad where are you going?'
Kurt, "To the gym so that I can get skinny."
Raegan crying, "But I don't want you to get skinny, I like you just the way you are! You won't look like my daddy!"
Kurt, "I'll still look the same, I just won't have a big belly."
Raegan still crying, "But I like you big belly!"
The next morning Raegan looks at Kurt and says, "Dad, you still have a big belly."
