Where have all you bloggers gone? I thought blogging was part of the rules? You are probably all working out at the gym or doing some holiday shopping! Maybe you are at the spa getting ready for the finale next week.

How did your Thanksgiving go? Did you remember all the rules? At least I didn't gain any weight this year--that's a big change for me. Thanks, Melanie for all the tips for success over the holidays.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone at the parade on Saturday. Everyone loves a parade and it will be fun to see you all. I hope I can recognize everyone after a few weeks of not seeing each other.

I had a crazy, but very possible, thought today. Perhaps the finale will be like "The Biggest Loser" and in our case one of the previously eliminated teams will lose a higher percentage of weight than any of the remaining three teams. It could happen!

In any case, the pressure is on! The finale is turning into a real "nail-bitter"! Melanie, how many calories in a fingernail?
