NEW GAME? (Biggest Loser)

Group, in order to help with motivation and bring a little "fun" to weight loss...I would like to start another game (if I get atleast 8 or so to play).

Survivor currently has only 14 players left in the game but it could go on for quite some time. I'd like to do another Survivor but we need to wait for that game to conclude to avoid thread confusion.

I propose, in the meantime, we play BIGGEST LOSER.

What it is?
- I will track "% weight loss" weekly. If you've seen Biggest Loser on TV, you know what the "red line" is. Basically the lowest % weight loss for that given week will be eliminated. Depending on the number of entries I get will determine how many people fall below this "red line" as I don't want this game to go on too long.

You need to let me know your weight from your Week 9 weigh-in (actual weight). (you can post it here or just send me a personal message) Then just keep posting your loss/gain in the weekly weight loss threads as we've been doing and I can get the numbers I need from there. I don't need your actual weight anymore after you give it to me.

If you decide to play but do not enter your weight loss/gain in by the end of the weight loss thread period (Tuesday's at midnight)...you will automatically be eliminated

So, does anyone want to play? If so, please let me know in this thread or message me before Tuesday the 12th with your Week 9 starting weight (Feb 27-Mar 5th)
