    The Biggest Loser is an encyclopedia of what not to do.

    Sorry folks, but anything more than 2 lbs per week is a prescription for FAILURE!

    Follow the MFP recommendations and cease with all the crash dieting tomfoolery.

    I don't think anyone said anything about crash dieting....I think we are just here to try to lose weight and have a fun support group! I know I won't lose more than 2 lbs. per week, but just being part of a group can help to keep me motivated so I will work harder and at least lose 1-2 lbs. per week.

    Shanna - definately need a hand overseeing so if you could PM me your email address I'll add you to the spreadsheet etc and then there will be three of us around to check on things. :) Carol works full time and I am a full time student (go back next week) so there is def room for more help.


    Weigh in Day I thought would be good to be a Friday - no worries over a weekend crash if you have one and a good day to fit with the show.

    Regarding crash diet - this is not advocating the methods used or anything. This is just for support - and fans of the show to use the time it runs to lose weight - I am sure no-one will starve / over exercise etc to get the glory on here.. there is no £ or $ at the end.. just support and friendship. I just personally needed support and have been lagging for months.. now I've committed to being good for the duration of the show and hopefully that will keep me on track.

    I agree with Jane - not a place for people who want to starve themselves - I personally follow a high protein diet and will be continuing with that - I have lost of ideas for upping the exercise!
