Biggest Loser Summer Challenge

Alright Ladies and Gents -

I am putting together a Biggest Loser challenge for July.

Here's the skinny: By June 29, everyone who wants to participate must weigh in with their Current Weight and Goal weight for the end of this challenge. Each week (on Fridays) until August 30, everyone will check in with their current weight. I will eliminate players each week (number eliminated determined by number participating) who have the OVERALL lowest weight percentage lost, accumulated from previous weeks. That being said, if you don't do well one week, you're not out of the running.

If you're eliminated, please keep weighing in. It's supposed to be motivational, even it you're not the Biggest Loser. I thrive with competition, so this will be a great tool for me.

If you'd like to participate, join the group below and weigh by JUNE 29 with your CURRENT WEIGHT and GOAL WEIGHT for the end of this challenge.

Please lose weight responsibly, and happy losing!
Amanda

    Sorry but I don't think this is a particularly good idea. My reasoning is that if you only end up with one person at the end, all of the others would have left and so the person who is left doesn't get to bask in the glory in front of others. Anyway, good luck.

    I asked that anyone who wants to participate, but gets "eliminated" to keep weighing in even if they aren't the "Biggest Loser." It's not just about losing the most weight, but more about a support system that is both encouraging and helpful.

    Good luck to you on your weight loss.
  • I'm so in!!! Great idea!! :smile:
