Welcome to week 5 everyone! New people are still welcome. Here are the rules/guidelines of the challenge.

Biggest Loser Challenge "Rules"
-everyone weighs in each week on the same day
-Please try to post your weight by Wednesday, this makes it easier for me

Just like on the show
-each week the person with the highest percentage of weight loss since the last week will be our weekly Biggest Loser
-at the finale the person who has the highest percentage of weight loss since their starting weight will be Biggest Loser

We do small challenges every week too which will be posted here.

Good luck everyone!

    No problem :>

    This week's challenges will be the same.

    Drink 8 glasses of water each day.
    Do 20 minutes of exercise each day.
    Stay at or under your calorie goal.


    I will post the standings for points this week. Anyone interested in tracking the challenge points for us?

    Glad to see you're excited :) I'm not so excited to weigh in :( TOM is here plus since I've been running I've done less "workouts" so I feel like I'm plateauing or gaining :( We'll see what tomorrow brings I guess.
    I did complete my first 5k of 2010 yesterday...not the best time...but I did it and now I have a time to beat this next Sunday when I run another 5k!
    I'm thinking I'm going to have to continue to workout on my running days as well!!! UGH

    Well, was really off my game last week because of sick hubby. I really had to take care of him. Gained two pounds, did no exercise except 2 miles on friday. I have no idea on calories or water.

    Today is a new day. Bought the ea active and love it.

    exercise - Did 2 miles on the walk away the pounds.
    did 27 minutes of the medium intensity on ea active. Love that they give you calories burned.

    Water - Already drinking 3 glasses so far.

    watching what I eat today.

    Hi everyone, I'm down 1 lb. this week (227 lbs). I have been staying in points but had to take cortizone for a muscle pull in my back and have had a very inactive week. I usually treadmill 3-4 miiles at least 5 days a week. Since January 1st I have lost 10.2 lbs which I am very happy about. Hope you all had a great week . .. drink up!

    Well, lets see

    Starting Weight - Dec 1 was 215
    Current Weight - 203 lbs

    I believe that i am up from last week weigh in. Not enough exercise last week, not enough water, no idea on my calories. hubby was sick and i was taking care of him 24/7 for days. I do literally mean 24/7. he had to be given a pill every hour on the hour - alternating ones. very confusing. he had very severe virtigio and it is still not gone but does not require constant watching.

    Bought the EA Active game for Wii. Absolutely love it. i am so sore from the work outs but i can definitely feel a difference. I enjoy that it is constant moving from one exercise to another. I also love that it gives you calories burned. lots of different exercised daily. AI have only done medium and low intensity so far.

    Monday -
    Walk away the pounds dvd - 2 miles
    EA Active medium intensity - 1 hour
    Ea active low intensity - 30 minutes

    completed water.
    Over calories

    Tuesday
    Walk away the pounds dvd - 1 mile
    Ea Active medium intenstiy - 1 hour

    Working on water - 3 done already
    watching calories today
