Last call for the MFP Biggest Loser Challenge! Anyone who wants an invitation to the group should message Jim1960 and let him know. (For newbies, this means clicking 'community', then 'find members' and entering Jim1960 into the 'username' box. When you arrive at Jim's profile click 'send message'.) Weigh-ins are once a week - you can weigh-in anytime from Thur-Sun - and everyone will be allocated a team. The challenge starts this week!

    Just post your weight once a week. Each team usually posts a challenge for the week too - like 10 squats every time you make a cup of tea. Something fun!

    Starting Weight thread is now up for the MFP Biggest Loser Challenge and will be there until Sunday night. Don't worry if you haven't received your group invite yet, Jim's just running a bit behind. Xx

    You have to wait for the invite I'm afraid honey. Once you've accepted it, select 'community', then 'groups' (top menu), then 'Biggest Loser Challenge' - this will take you to the group's own forum and you'll see all the threads there including the starting weight one. Don't worry if Jim hasn't added you yet, he's been mysteriously absent this week, but when he gets back he'll sort all this out with you I'm sure. Xx

    It should be at the top of the page - but it will only be there once you're received and accepted your invitation. Jim is the group's moderator, so you'll need to wait for him to read his messages and send you the invite... Sorry things aren't running as smoothly as they should. Xx

    Hi guys.

    If you send me your starting weight (your weight anytime from 1st January to the 4th) I’ll add it to the group weigh-in spreadsheet and send you a link. Then you’ll know which team you’ve been put on and who the other members are. You can then friend them (‘community’, ‘invite friends’) and let them know you’re in the same BL Challenge team. This won’t give you access to the forums (we need Jim to start issuing invitations for that) but it should get the ball rolling.
  • Hope I'm not too late, could I still be added?

    Of course! Just message Jim1960 for the invite and message me with your starting weight (your weight anytime from 1st January to the 4th)... :)
  • If its not too late I would love to join. I messaged you my starting weight and I also messaged Jim for an invite. Thanks!!

    Okay, just added you and messaged back! Wednesday is really a cut off point but if anyone's truly desperate they can still join up until Sunday - so Thursday onwards that will be 'starting' weight (1st-4th) and 'week 1' weight (8th-11th) that you'll need to message me with...

    The weigh-ins always run Thursday-Sunday and you can pick any day you wish out of those to post a weight.

    Thanks guys!
  • Hey id be up for it... My starting weight is 16st 2

    Guys you no longer have to message Jim as well - I can now send out invites. So just message me.

    Jim's just got back after a week away, so his inbox is pretty full, but he's sorting through it as best he can.
