Biggest Loser Challenge! MAKE SURE TO READ EVERYTHING!

READ ALL OF THIS! DO NOT SKIP ANYTHING!
I really need something to motivate me....& nothing motivates me more than a little (FRIENDLY) competition!
I know were all here to support eachother, AND WE ARE, DONT FORGET THAT, BUT.....we all need a little competition to boost up our motivation, am i right!? I think I am!
But anyways! This would be a 12 week challenge...one person will be "eliminated" each week .... sorry :P
This will be measured by body weight percentage lost, not by # of pounds lost! Anyone is welcome to join, but once I have 12 people filled out, sorry, no more can join!
Once I have 12 people on the list (INCLUDING ME) .... i will randomly draw names, & we will be put into teams of two. Your job as a team is to SUPPORT AND MOTIVATE EACHOTHER LIKE NO OTHER.
at the end of the week, the team with the lowest percentage lost will be "below the yellow line" .... and instead of voting eachother off, the person on the team with the lowest percentage lost will be the one eliminated!
If this does NOT sound interesting to you, please don't comment rude opinions on how you think this is "stupid" or something....& if this DOES sound interesting, FEEL FREE TO JOIN! but once again, once i have 12 people on the list, I will accept no more! you may only join if you are commited to keeping up and weighing in! weigh ins will be on sundays!
If someone fails to weigh in on that Sunday, they will have their final chance to weigh in on monday morning. but i will be calculating percentages and announcing elimination on monday nights or tuesday mornings. so monday mornings are the FINAL STRAW! .... so if you fail to weigh in on time, you will be eliminated....if more than one person fails to weigh in on time, than they will all be eliminated and everyone will have "immunity" the next week!
Another thing, I want this all to be fair & honest! AND FUN! AND USEFUL! .... instead of posting your weight on here, please ***MESSAGE IT TO ME, DO NOT COMMENT IT ON HERE**** ......i promise to be honest & fair, were all in this together!
I will be announcing who makes the cut for 12 people on here once the first people sign up! its first come, first serve!
IF YOU WANT TO JOIN, DO NOT COMMENT ON HERE. MESSAGE ME! MAKE SURE WERE FRIENDS, BECAUSE I DONT THINK YOU CAN MESSAGE UNLESS WERE FRIENDS!!!! IF YOU COMMENT ON HERE, I WILL BE DELETING THE COMMENT AND YOU WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS CHALLENGE. COMMENTING ON HERE JUST GETS TOO CONFUSING.
This is what you will message me to sign up:
Your name:
Current Weight:
That is all! Please check back every once and awhile to see if you made it! I will post right away! thank you
ONCE I HAVE EVERYONE FILLED OUT, I WILL PUT *CLOSED* ..... SO IF IT DOES NOT CURRENTLY SAY CLOSED ON THIS TOPIC, MESSAGE ME TO JOIN! LETS DO THIS :)

CONGRATS TO EVERYONE ELSE, YOUR IN FOR ANOTHER WEEK!0 -
Sorry Alita2011. I know you will continue to do your best. How about this? Just like on the biggest loser, we can see who has the best % of weight loss for those eliminated before the "finale". That will help to contiue to motivate those who get eliminated throughout. After all, we are all in this together to be the healthest "me" we can be! Good luck to everyone in the following week and wish you much success.:bigsmile:0
