I can't quite believe this....

Awards this week go to :

binsylad of the Southern Softies for losing 6.2lbs, and
loushep of the Northern Numpties for losing 4lbs.

Both of them lost exactly 2.08% of their bodyweight, so massive congratulations to you, Mike and Louise!

I've been on the horns of a dilemma today. All week as the results trickled in first one team then the other crept ahead and that has continued today. I've included everyone who has checked in so far, regardless of the deadline, because it is so close. We are still waiting for 3 people to check in from each team, and their results would make all the difference, because currently, as you can see, IT'S A DEAD HEAT!

I am feeling very saintly because I did weigh myself again after my shower this morning and came out half a pound lighter which would have given the Numpties the victory, but it didn't seem right, somehow!

If anyone knows a better way of getting pictures onto the forum so that they're not so fuzzy, do let me know! I'm currently creating it in excel, pasting and saving as a jpeg in paint, uploading to photobucket then copying and pasting to here!

    You'd be welcome!

    For anyone wanting to join, please SEND ME A MESSAGE (post it somewhere or put it in your status updates by all means, but you are unlikely to make it to the results table unless I've a message in my inbox).

    Include:

    1. Your starting weight for the challenge and the date it was taken on.

    2. Your weigh day (it doesn't matter what day you weigh on, but stick to the same one for the challenge so that each week's results reflect 7 days of team effort)

    3. The Team you want to be on, and your location, if you don't mind people knowing. If you have no emotional preference as to north or south, use the Watford Gap test- NN6 7UZ is the postcode for Watford Gap Services on the M1. Put it into google maps and see if you are north or south of it!

    If you add your team to your signature, people will realise that you've joined and we will all get to know each other quicker- mates and opposition...

    Each week on your weigh day or as near as possible, send me a message to my inbox with your updated weight and I'll add it to the table.

    Results showing weights, losses and percentage weight loss for each team will be published each Saturday if possible, as long as everyone has given me their weights by midday on Sat. If anyone is late, the results will be delayed.

    Have fun, and lets see who are the biggest losers!

    Woo hoo, Rosy you are a star. You have just made my weekend,i have the biggest :smile: on my face. Obviously i was happy at losing 4lbs but being a winner in this group challenge is awesome. The trophy award idea was inspired and all the work you do calculating fat loss percentages is just fantastic. Thankyou so much for creating this challenge and making losing weight fun :flowerforyou:

    Pmsl! I know- it doesn't sound good, does it? I prefer to think I weighed 215.75 lbs before the shower and 215.74lbs after it (my scales round to the nearest half pound). That way, there was only one hundreth of a pound of filth going down the plughole! I can cope with that.....

    I'm gonna have to hit the gym hard this week! Well done to all and also so impressed at those who have gained a bit and owned up! Makes me feel better if I have to fess up to a gain at some point. I'm actually 2 more lb down already but that happened last week and I went back up slightly. Good luck for nextweek

    Ginaberry's checked in for the Numpties- she's lost 2lb (excellent work, GIna), but it still keeps our percentage on 0.76....still a tie!!!
    If I get anymore check-ins for this week, I'll put another table out tomorrow. It's just such a palaver, I don't want to do more than one update....

    Rosy you started this for fun and it's great but don't let it become a chore for you. Set a cut off time on saturdays and stick to it, i'm sure everyone will understand. You put a lot of time and effort into this, no-one expects you to have to spend your weekend putting out amended tables. :flowerforyou:
