^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^here's the link^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Includes both exercise and nutrition challenges and encourages accountability.

PLEASE PM ME SO THAT I CAN GUARANTEE YOU A SPOT.

This contest is set up with 2 teams of contestants. The teams that loses the most will be safe. The person with the highest percentage of weight loss gets an advantage for the next week. The 2 lowest losing players are up for elimination and one is sent to second chance.

Booooo, Elimation. Everyone deserves a second chance, right? So, eliminated people will be put in the second chance category. We will have 1 opportunity for the second chance people to come back. If you are the top loser of the second chance category, you will be allowed back into the contest.

There will be some very different weight challenges as the weeks go on. The advantages will include immunity; weight advantage and disadvantages. This is supposed to be fun and good natured.

Weigh-ins:
1. We will weigh in every week. If you fail to weigh in, you will be eliminated and out of the contest. I am really firm about this.

3. You can post up 2 weights for the weigh in days. I will pick the lower of the two weights.
If you are unable to make a weigh-in and know that you will be on vacation, please notify me at the start of the contest. I will allow a different weigh in date since I will know upfront and will allow a change.

4. If you would not like to be in the game anymore, do not post it on the thread. Send me an email, so that other contestants do not know and slack off. We’ll let them think someone will still be eliminated.

How to weigh-in:
1. I will post a code word on the thread the night prior before weigh-in
2. You will take a picture of the scale: with your current weight and code word attached
3. You will post the photo on the link.

This is how to post your picture. Please do a practice one so that you are ready for the contest. I use tinypic.com to upload the pic.
1) Upload the photo at tinypic.com
2) copy the IMG code & resize the picture to 320
3) paste onto MFP
4) after you paste, change the capital IMG on both ends to lowercase img on both ends
