New to MFP

Cherylt825

I've been dieting and exercising for about a month trying to get ready for a beach trip and fit back into my clothes I have outgrown! I did not have a scale at home to get my starting weight. I was just informed at work yesterday that we are going to do a biggest loser challenge. Our boss got a new fancy scale and I was able to weigh myself today.

2 people per team
Team entry fee is $10
This is a 5 week challenge that will begin this Friday, May 25 until June 29, 2012.
Weigh in/out will be on Friday mornings between 8-9am.

The team that loses the most body fat percentage will win each week.
Prizes will be the following:
First 4 weeks – Gift Cards
1st place: $50 per team
2nd place: $30 per team
3rd place: $20 per team

Final week: $200.00 per team

Entry Fee money will go to the 1 person that loses the most body fat percentage.

If that is not even more motivation to lose the weight, I don't know what is! I'm looking for friends with good tips and motivation!

We did that at our job and the winner got $275.00. Unfortunately I came in 2nd. But I got a lot of self-esteem! Add me if you would like more support.
