Hey guys! So I was thinking that we should have a biggest loser challenge. I would be more than willing to organize it if people want. I was thinking we could have 25 people, 5 teams of 5, if that many people want to do it. If more want to, we can add more teams. I doubt it will get this big, but I think we should only take the first 40 people, otherwise it'l get really hard to keep track of. We could also have weekly challenges like drinking a certain amount of water each day, or having a timed mile contest or something if people want to. Let me know what you want to do if anything! I will calculate peoples percent lost if they post their starting weights and each week how much weight they lose. We could weigh in Friday mornings or something. Each week we could have a biggest loser and keep this going for like 8 weeks or something and at the end have one winner. I don't know what prize we would have but we could try to figure something out. If you have any suggestions just tell me and we can definitely do them! Thanks!

    Sounds fabulous! BL premieres on Monday the 19th (I think?) There could be a "during show" challenge for anyone watching it (like commercial break crunches, or something along those lines.....)

    We currently have 16 people who want to do this, so I will make 4 teams of 4. In the morning, we should all weigh in and post our starting weights. I'll keep track of everything in a chart. Anybody have any challenge ideas?

    To all the new people that just saw this and asked to sign up, you can definitely still join! I just need your starting weight tomorrow. For the people that did sign un up already, I would love it if you could post your starting weight by tomorrow night. I think we originally said we would weigh in on Fridays, but Saturdays are great too. If not, and I feel badly saying this, but I want to get this thing going, we may just have to go on without you. firedragon064, I thought your challenge ideas were great! Do other people want to do them? I know I'll try! Once I have everyone's starting weights, I'll post a picture of the chart =) thanks everyone!
