Are you tired of the belly bulges that form when you sit down? :grumble:

Feel like your dryer shrank your clothes? :noway:

Do you want to be hot and sexy for the summer:glasses: and beyond:flowerforyou:

If you're in need of some new motivation :huh: and missed the deadline to join a challenge group :sad: - have no fear, you've found the right spot!!!:happy:

This challenge is for those who are serious and whole-heartedly committed to losing weight and feeling great!!!

BATTLE OF THE BULGE RULES

1. Weigh-in each Monday (pick the same time every time to weigh yourself! - I prefer in the morning, first thing when I wake up immediately after I hit the potty ;-) (why Monday? so you stay accountable for what you do (or dont do :wink:) over the weekend!!!)
Each Monday send me your weight and I will track in a chart and post on our message board how much you gained or lost and also your % of body fat gained or lost.

2. Every 5 weeks we do the OFFICIAL weigh-in (this one will count for your total weight loss of the month). Whoever lost the most weight AND whoever lost the most % of body fat will be PRAISED :-)

3. We will all add each other as friends so we can see each others progress and keep each other motivated.

DEADLINE 1: SUMMER SOLSTICE SLIMDOWN (June 20th)
DEADLINE 2: STAYIN ALIVE (July 25) <hey it rhymes lol>
DEADLINE 3: SUMMER CELEBRATION! (August 29th)

The first weigh-in will be MONDAY MAY 16th - this will be your starting weight for the challenge...YOU CAN JOIN AT ANY TIME!!! I will add you into the spreadsheet according to when you joined so you can be grouped with those who started at the same time as you to compare progress.

I will send motivating songs and tips throughout each week and I encourage the rest of the group to do the same!!! Every tuesday I will post the new results and start a new post that will be the same title as this but have (WEEK 1) at the beginning :happy:

LETS GO!!!

    Since it's about the bulge.. how about adding in tummy measurements?? I'd rather see that go down than my weight even.

    I second this - all i need to loose is an inch or so off my tummy now, everything else has gone - like literally gone!

    Body fat can be calculated online by the way - just take a few measurements and put it in the BF calculator and you will get a %

    1. I meant % body weight, not % body fat...sorry about the confusion!!! - I'll do the calculation for you
    2. we can track at the beginning of each month whatever measurements you choose!!! weight will be tracked every week to keep you motivated, but the official weigh-in that counts is the official week 5 weigh in! so if you want to track the inches of your bust, arms, thighs, or waist, send me those by May 16th and then send me them at the 5 week weigh in for tracking progress!
