2nd Round, Fit-n-Trim to Win Elimination Contest

Losing team will eliminate one person with the lowest percentage of body weight.

The person with the highest percentage of weight loss gets an advantage for the next week. This will have some twists as the weeks go on. The advantages will include immunity; weight advantage and disadvantage, trading players. This might not be for you if your feelings get hurt easily; or, you hate losing; or, you have low self-esteem. This is supposed to be fun and good natured.

Criteria to enter:
1) You have a digital scale
2) You have a digital camera
3) You can weigh in any day of the week (weekdays & weekends)

Weigh-ins:
1) We will weigh in every Wednesday. If you fail to weigh in on Wednesday, you will be eliminated and out of the contest. If that happens, no one will be eliminated for that week.

2) 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. There will be no other exceptions.
3) 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) You would weigh in with the code work that I will post on a thread the prior night
2) You will take a picture of the scale with your current weight, date and code word attached
3) You will post the photo on the link I will provide for each week

Besides, the ultimate reward of a healthier, more slender body, I will mail a prize for the ultimate winner.

It would be really cool if you took a before picture. You don’t have to post now. However, if you are the winner, please post the before and after picture for us all to be jealous and admire.


You will write the code word “COMPETITON” May 4, 2011 on a piece of paper
Place this on or around the scale
Snap the picture of the paper and your weight

Here are some directions to copy the photo on to here:

1) I use photobucket, upload the photo there
2) copy the IMG code
3) paste onto MFP
4) change the capital IMG to lowercase img


My daughter drew the names, for some reason, she finds entertainment in it. Anyway, here are the teams:

Muscle Busters:

Tamboea
Mollie
Faith
Healthymomma
Nisijam5
Britt
Runner
MamaTurner

Fat Fighters:

McFatterton
Evaitryst
HeatherShrinking
Minday
Accountantboi
Aprilstar
Irishgal
McDebbie

    Your pushing your luck lady!!! No, I am going crazy trying to get caught up from the Chicago trip where I fried my brain on food and alcohol.

    I ask you why men don't see dirt on the toilets, toothpaste on the sink or dog hair everywhere??? Seriously, no groceries, the mail piled up...blinders the man has on

    I've come to the conclusion that my husband (in particular), is just so dense, naiive and utterly unobservant that even Albert Einstein couldn't give a logical explanation. Get your whip and start cracking it! :devil:

    Put me on your team, maybe I'll do better than I did when I wasn't on your team.... :ohwell: And if it works out better after the weigh-in to throw me on the other team that's cool.

    Instead of watching, why don't you just join...the worst thing that happens is your eliminated...the best thing is to say focused

    OK, Katie, done deal...your a muscle buster

    I don't have much to lose though. You had posted a req about needing to lose 20 pounds or something somewhere...

    I could probably be persuaded (it wouldn't be too hard :smile:)

    I put the 20 lbs so that people could potentially stay longer in the comp....but, if you are willing to possibly face elimination at an early stage of the game...sign up...anyway, it's based on body fat % so would only need to lose a small amount each week

    Ok, I'd like to request to NOT be on your team! LOL, at least you'll be celebrating after the weigh-in.

    Got a thread going for the muscle busters to be in touch at.....

    I can do it. I just hope my team doesn't hate me since I'm not likely to be that high a percentage. It could keep some other people around longer though.

    I've been up lately so it could work to my advantage - horrible eating lately.

    Oh yeah, Cinco de Mayo...
