Last Minute Strategies

Only 8 days from the conclusion of this competition, everyone has their own strategy for dropping those last few pounds. Some are cutting out carbs, others salt, and still others contemplating cutting out solid food entirely.. Some seem to be secretly hoping for food poisoning or the flu for an easy drop in weight, and some have just about given up, resorting to torturing the rest of the contestants with tempting sweets and snacks. Which strategy will be the most successful? Only time will tell..

This week, Chris is trailing John by less than 1% with Christy only 1% behind that. Although John hasn't been present for a weigh in for two weeks, he is still in the lead from his last one, making him the wild card in this competition. Has he lost or gained these last two weeks? It could be anyone's game at this point. It all comes down to who has what it takes to sprint the last leg of this long race.

For those of us not in the running, is it time to take bets on these three to try to recoup the $25-$40 loss to our wallets? Who do you think is going to take the cake?
