    MightyMae, are you using the photos as the first week weigh-in - or - the posted ones from last week?

    Ok, a really silly question but is there a way to take the photo without having to have the camera on the scales at the same time as you?! I'll need to try and think of something or I might just use my mobile to take the photo!!!- my camera is heavy!!!

    The contest started on Sunday, June 26. Today is the first week weigh-in; thus, today is also the first elimination.

    So let's get some pictures of scales on here!! Good luck everyone :)

    I just sit the camera on the counter. Once the scale locks in a weight, I grab the camera and take a pic.

    Place the camera on a table...set the scale and then pick it up...but, really, how much can a camera weigh???

    Sorry for being silly, I thought there may have been a knack to it. In the finish I plonked the camera on the wee bin in the loo, jumped on the scales, jumped off once the numbers came up and took the picture as fas as I could and as close to the numbers as I could!!!xx

    Yesterday there were 10 people who didn't weigh in at all and so they are eliminated. So as long as you posted a 1st week weigh-in, you are safe from elimination this week.

    We have 9 players left:

    MightyMae1
    Throtttlboy
    Meggie_Pooh
    nisijam5
    teanabean
    christieherron
    mzmags
    ilovedrinkingtea
    jayme34

    At this point we have to vote:

    Option 1 is that we can still eliminate 2 players per week and this challenge will just be over in 4 weeks.
    Option 2 is to eliminate one player per week and keep playing for originally planned amount of time. (9 more weeks).

    Please vote.

    I vote one per week so we can keep the duration. Five weeks isn't long enough to really make a lasting change.
