The party decorations were coordinated by Marina Tesla.
Pat Miller won the top loser title with a year-end total weight loss of 17.5 pounds. Denise Stabile was second with a 12-pound loss. Third place went to Judy Chambers who finished the year 11 pounds lighter. Shirlene Bradrick got the top loser degree for the most consistent accountability and adherence to maintaining her weight goal.
