Dirty, Underhanded, cheating, Son of a ..... !!!

So I received an e-mail this morning at work and this is the shortened and abridged version.

Good Afternoon,

I hold biggest loser competitions and up until now it’s just been with the back office folks, but this time I wanted to extend the offer to all of our people. We go for 12 weeks and figures are figured just like the Biggest Loser show, it’s based off your percentage of weight lost. You will pay $10 to join and based on the number of people will determine the payout and whether it’s the top 3 or more paid out. Friday March 22nd, we will do the first weigh in with the last weigh in on Friday June 14th.



Is it wrong that I want to sign up, and then come in with my pockets loaded with change...some lead lining my shoes perhaps? Make sure that I'm wearing my steel-toed workboots the first day, then switch to my running shoes later. Seriously...How screwed up do you have to be to try and devise ways to cheat at this?

Has anyone else cheated at a "Biggest Loser" competition. Any advice :wink:

    Yes, I have done a TON of these actually. They started getting smart and making us empty our pockets and actually wrote down what we were wearing so that we couldn't cheat. Good luck!

    Should weigh without shoes.....Other than that......Night before initial weigh in eat LOTS of sodium and drink tons of water. You can easily cheat 5-10 lbs.
