The Basics (which will stay the same for the next few weeks!)

Wk 4 challenge runs from January 28th – February 3rd .
Captains xls must be updated by 12pm Est on February 4th. As a captain, you can update the xls starting that Friday, February 3rd , anytime after 12pm Est. (yes I did change the time, I am giving you a full day to get this done now. Please email me as well on MFP that you have finished updating your teams XLS tab.)

Immunuity 
On each team, the person with the highest % of weight loss has IMMUNITY. (until I we are down to a smaller group) 
Each team will have a chance for Immunity as well, this will be the team with the highest % of weight loss (until I we are down to a smaller group). 

Eliminations 
Eliminations will be based on the lowest % of weight loss for that weigh in. The two teams with the lowest amount will have two people up for Elimination. Each of those two people will email me (subject must say the week, team... example Week 1, Bluesers) and then in the body, you will tell me what you did for the week and why you should say. I will decide which one from each team stays, and we will move the other two people into the "At Home Prize" Category. 
Eliminations will change up a bit, as we dwindle to the end. I will keep you updated on that as well. 

Once each team gets their first week challenge pictures to me, I will post the 1st challenge info. I know everyone is curious. I will do this every week as well. After the first week, we will have "highlighted" info, such as the team with the highest %, etc. 

Here is the link again, in case you want to watch what happens each week or check your info. (I will update the main team tab once all of the weights have been updated on each tabs xls.)

Cooking Challenge – 2lb Advantage Winner is Basen (I had a hard time with this one, considering Dragonfly made a very similar meal!)

Wall Squats – Immunity Winners – Mfastdriver
Wall Squats 1lb Advantage Winners – Cantjustcant

Eliminations: As of right now, no one will be eliminated. This is only because we have had numerous people drop out of the last week (about 20), so everyone else that reported their weight to the captain will be safe this week. Those who did not, will be moved to the “At Home Challenger”

TEAM CHALLENGE!!

Wk 4 challenge is Mountain Climbers! If you do not know how to do it...

Begin in a pushup position on the hands and toes. Bring the right knee in towards the chest, resting the foot on the floor. Jump up and switch feet in the air, bringing the left foot in and the right foot back. Continue alternating the feet as fast as you safely can

Here is a video of someone doing them if you need help on how to.

Each leg forward counts as one, so make sure you count them all up for the week. Just do the best you can. I am not going to tell you how long to do them, but I will throw in an iccentive, the person that does the most mountain climbers, must email me by the Feb 3rd . In the subject, you will tell me how many you did with the mountaine climbers. This person will have Immunity. The person with the second most with mountaine climbers will have a 1lb advantage. Sound good?

Also, I will be doing another Cooking Challenge for week 4. It will run January 26th - Feb 1st 8pm. I need the pictures emailed either on MFP or biggest.loser.12@gmail.com. I will be judging on healthiness, calorie amount and presentation. I need a picture of you cooking it (I know some of you are single, so write your name on a piece of paper or something and take a picture of that with your food cooking) and then a picture of the final product. The new requirment this week is you must have atleast one protein and two different color vegetables in this meal. Any other questions, please feel free to email me. ONE more thing, after you submit your picture to me, please post just your recipe on the recipe thread in the group so we can share with everyone.

Now onto the different team challenges. I am not going to submit their info anymore. I know its prettier when I have all the pictures but it does take a lot of time for both me and the captains. ALTHOUGH, the captains will need to either have a group post or blog up with the description, and if a picture if they'd like.
