Continuing my updates for my local gym's The Biggest Loser competition, here's Week #6.

Week 1 (Jan 14th) - weighed in at 198lbs (original weight)
Week 2 (Jan 21st) - weighed in at 189lbs (-9 lbs)
Week 3 (Jan 28th) - weighted in at 189lbs (0 change)
Week 4 (Feb 4th) - weighed in at 186lbs (-3 lbs)
Week 5 (Feb 11th) - weighed in at 186lbs (0 change)
Week 6 (Feb 18th) - weighed in at 184lbs (-2 lbs). I'm surprised I lost anything this week since I was away on vacation. Went to AAA 4 Diamond rated Rabbit Hill Inn in Vermont (gorgeous bed & breakfast by the way) and of course ate some calorie-rich food, including grilled beef sirloin & venision osso buco, rainbow trout, as well as some world-class desserts such as chocolate stout cake, Northeast Kingdom Gateau (very rich & chocolatey), and some tasty chocolate truffles and pastries during their afternoon tea. I did however bust my butt on the treadmill last week in anticipation of eating badly on vacation. I guess it paid off.

Rabbit Hill Inn nailed a perfect score in the Select Registry and Zagat said of Rabbit Hill Inn: "This just might be the most romantic place on the planet."

I should mention that Rabbit Hill Inn has several unique Stave puzzles, which are like art pieces, which sucked both my wife and I into the lounge area for hours on end trying to solve. These puzzles are handcut and go for hundreds - even thousands of dollars. We spent a good deal of time in the two chairs by the window (pic below) putting together a Stave puzzle depicting an elephant. Hmm, sit on my butt for hours on end and still lose two pounds. Now that's the way one should lose weight!
