i had a possible little idea. how about Team Gryffindor, Team Hufflepuff etc? and at each weeks weigh-in total up the percentage lbs lost for each "house" and have a winner?
oh OR, each lb lost each week is a point toward that particular house? example, once all of Gryffindor check in and they have lost, say, 6 lbs total that week, Gryffindor get 6 points? and its a running total every week till the last?
we could have points for each lb lost, for every 10 minutes spent exercising, for every 10 calories you are under your alloted amount for the week, for each glass of water drunk?
we could even have points deducted for a variety of similar things?
sound at all interesting or am i just waffling? :blushing:0 -
ohh i like the idea.. but thats a lot for one person.. so maybe we could set up heads of houses or something to track each house =D.. i think thatd be so much fun.. but maybe not points for being under calorie goals.. you want to meet your calorie goals.. encouraging being under the goal isn't really good for a lot of people.. but i like doing it for exercise and maybe meeting calorie goals each day.. that kind of thing.. Id love to help if we wanna do this =D0

Current weight 240 this morning. Goal weight 2290

oh dear i didnt think of it that way. i was thinking more points for not going way over your calorie goal rather than for being way under it. you're right, we dont want to encourage that!0

I love the house idea! I can volunteer as a head of house if we decide to go that way!0

ok, ok..i thought it might get too complicated but I see I am being overrun..the only issue could be is how are we going to break people up? We may lose some people along the way but I gues it wouldnt matter too much.. the only issue might be if new people join in the middle but I guess we can cross that bridge when we get to it..I can do one house...so we have me, Shellybeelee, jd92 and azsuzi ...any of you have a preference which house you want? I would like Gryffindor...as for sorting people into houses, any ideas how to do it?
Maybe the points could be the number of pounds lost or something? Or the total percentage of weight lost? or each day that a member met their water goal they could get a point...idk..we will I guess have to see if it gets too complicated or not...0 -
i dont mind which house i get.. and yeah i can see how it would get complicated.. but if the four of us decide what we are going to keep points on then we could track our houses individually.. which would make it so you dont have to track everyone ya know?? And as for breaking people off into houses.. make it random.. make each house a number one through four and then each person picks one through four and when everyone who wants to participate has done it we can announce what house was what number.. it may take a week to sort everyone out but once everyone is in a house it should be pretty easy..0

I like the idea of the 4 houses; but speaking from experience of tracking a challenge - don't make it too complicated for Uno to track. This is a large group and will take a lot of Uno's time just to track each week's weight loss.
My suggestion - based on the initial list of people; Uno should evenly split the group into the 4 houses. As people drop out/jump in, Uno just tries to keep the 4 houses evenly balanced. It's all for fun...so we shouldn't get too critical. I believe weight loss should equate to points earned for each house; nothing more. Again, this will be a lot for Uno to track.
I'm OK with being in any house. Let the house-challenge smack talk begin!! :smokin: :laugh:0
