    I actually think it is more fair since it creates a level playing field. I'm on my last 10 lbs so I maybe lose 0.2-0.4 lbs a week. What percentage does it takes away larger folks advantage, but it doesn't give them a disadvantage. If it were done by pounds, I wouldn't join.

    For example, if I lost 0.3 lb, that would be 0.2%. If someone who is 250 lost 1.5 lbs that would be 0.6%, which is still higher than mine, plus is still a reasonable amount of weight to lose in a week.

    I'd love to join. I have not done one of these challenges before so might have lots of questions but I do need a kick in the pants. I've lost 100 pounds over the last year and have really slowed down. Looking to loose about 25 more pounds but seem to have really plateaued. Thanks for pulling this together. I think it might be just what I need to get me over this slump. :D

    I lost about 30 pounds before summer and somehow gained around 25 pounds back within the last four months. Pretty bummed about that and ready to push myself even harder this time around. I've never done a challenge or even posted on MFP, so I'm hoping this will help me stay motivated. Looking forward for this to begin!

    I started slacking after I started working so hopefully doing a challenge will kick me back into the mindset and motivate me!
