    Nisijam, thank you for doing this contest! Next week I HOPE to see the 170's, it's been at least four years since I have seen them!

    MzsShogan is actually still here just in a different category

    This is confusing me Kim......

    P.S. Now I know how the first contestant to be eliminated on the Biggest Loser feels. :sad: :blushing: :cry:

    :cry: you've been eliminated.

    Well, since there are 'comebacks' you will keep weighing in like normal. Each person that is eliminated goes into the eliminated category and will compete to be the person to come back to the competition. *I think its a great idea and keeps us all motivated even if we are eliminated. Good job on that one Kim :drinker:*

    Katie, Shannon is right...I have a third spreadsheet for the Second Chance Comeback. All the eliminated players weigh in the same each week. At around week 6 or 7, the one with the highest % of weigh lost will come back.

    Were you doing that in the other comp? I didn't think so and just assuemd this one was the same. So I guess there still IS hope for me! And I agree with Shannon that it's a great idea! Now I'm a little bit happier......and I guess I can't have too many cocktails with the ladies on Saturday.....:grumble:

    I didn't do that on the other one because we only had about 10 people to start with and the comp wasn't going to last very long...this one is longer and I thought it would nice to have a second chance since I very well may need one...plus, it keeps us motivated as well

    Ummm, I had skinny margs last night mixed with perrier and lots of ice...not too bad on cals...about 500 calories for 4 tall big ones

    I didn't say I wasn't going to have ANY, just can't OVER indulge..... :laugh:

    Speaking of which, since I don't drink much IDK what is the *best* to drink when counting calories? Liquor, lite beer, wine.....help me out here people!

    I think hard liquor mixed with no-cal mixer...martinis would be good too, the skinny margs were really good as well...what are you in the mood for?

    BTW, thanks for the thanks...but, it helps me too!! I HATE the thought of being eliminated so that makes me work harder...BTW, my goal this week is 1% - or - 1.8 lbs...I will not be eliminated:mad:

    I'm sure you'll do great Kim! And I, although eliminated, appreciate the comp. Even more I appreciate the thought to bring someone back to keep my @ss in line! :laugh:

    IDK what I'm in the mood for. I've been drinking beer the last few times I went out, but maybe I'll try a skinny marg! :wink:

    when we go out (very rearely) I really like captain and 7up/sprite (you can do diet) with a lime, especially for the warmer months.. YUM!

    I haven't been able to do beer for a while, I get "gut rot" and just feel SUPER bloated

    SO bummed I missed out on this challenge.....but I'm going to follow you guys and do some stalking. And Kim, if there is a round 3, count me in! And, hopefully I won't be without internet (like, ever again in my whole life - felt like I needed to be out back churning butter or something!) Good luck everyone!!

    Sara, why don't you weigh in tomorrow or tonight with a photo and I will put you in the Second Chance Comeback category. That way, you can still compete and have the opportunity to get back in the contest. It is, afterall, about weight loss.

    That is if you are done milking the cows and churning butter...

    So how does the Comeback thing work?

    After the 6th or 7th week...I forget which...the biggest overall loser of that category gets to come back to the competition. Which team they join is decided by the winner of the prior week...

    Week #3

    Hello, my water guzzling sponges. :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    It’s time to say adios to another player :cry: Who will it be? :noway:

    The phrase for week #3 is “SAFETY” dated 5/18/11. The winner of tomorrow’s challenge is totally safe for the next week. :happy: How will you use this strategy to win the game, collect the prize and flaunt your sexy new silhouette? :huh: Ooooo, there’s the added element of throwing a little power around. Yep, you will decide who is going to get a 0.50 lb. disadvantage for next week. Just remember, who's running this contest when making your decision.:mad:

    I'm up .4 pounds, but I'm good with that. I was up 3 pounds on Monday so this is a big improvement...

    If I'm still in next week, the Muscle Busters better watch their butts! I'm looking for a huge come back! (Oh yeah, I'm starting the trash talk - there hasn't been nearly enough of it this round!)
