    Hi, ladies and (gents?),

    Totally in the mindset for this. During my lunchtime run, the last song on my ipod to push me thru? The theme from True Blood, Bad Things. I think that's a good sign, right?

    I think we should stick with what have decided. for instance for me.

    Start weight 204
    June 1st 200
    July 1st 192
    August 1st. 184

    I don't know if that is exactly right. I am just guessing.

    Week 3 - XXX lbs.

    So team - shall we get down to sharing some important dieting discussion to kick this thing off?!

    Who is your favourite character from the show? :bigsmile:

    personally, I am definitely going with that scandanavian hunk of awesomeness Eric :love:
  • Hi all,

    I am definitely in on this challenge!!

    Favourite character - LAFAYETTE!! He is gorgeous - does anyone know if he is straight in real life??

    25/5/2011 - SW - 66kg
    1st goal - 64kg
    2nd - 62kg
    3rd - 60kg
    4th - 58kg
    Ulitmate goal - 56kg

    That's 10 kilos by August right? Is that realistic? That's 10 kilos in 2 months... Hmm probably not - maybe the goal for August is to make it to my 3rd mini goal 60kg! Wow, I would be so happy with that :)
  • GO TEAM BON TEMPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Awesome quotes from Trueblood:

    Lafayette: In this restaurant a hamburger deluxe come with french fries, lettace, tomato, mayo, and AIDS! Do anybody got a problem with that?

    Sookie : "I'm in no mood for lesbian weirdness tonight, Pam"

    Eric (to Sookie): "I got your rug all wet."

    Terry (to Arlene): "It's not you, it's me. If I had a nickle for every time somebody said that, I'd have... 15 cents."

    I accidentally posted the wrong links initially.

    In order to get the Bon Temps graphic, copy and paste the following into your signature:

    team_bontemps_smaller.jpg

    After you paste it, DELETE the extra space after "img" and before the brackets in the beginning and end. That should fix ya up! :)

    Hi all. Just got into the show a month ago. Caught up to end of season 2...but missing the last show. Saw a rerun of season 3 opener and it had some scenes/happenings that were not in the replay on HBO! Bummer. Anyway, this challenge seems cool if I am understanding it correctly. Let's add some fun to the seriousness of weightloss and fitness!
