I need a contest

Options
I need a contest. I need something to keep me motivated. I'm not really having trouble eating right and exercising but with finals and everything coming up being healthy is the last thing on my mind. It's not as if I'm all of a sudden eating tons of crappy foods but it just might not be the best and time for exercise is totally out the window. Target has me working basically anytime I said I was available. Now I am a VERY competitive person and I would love to be on the biggest loser if it wasn't for the fact it was a tv show. I need something like that.

    I am just like you...I had tried to lose weight for years. I convinced my sister, her husband and my husband to have our own version of the biggest loser....so we had two months to see who could lose the most. 8 YEARS of trying to diet and in 2 months of competing i lost everything I wanted to, i know its bad but, competition is the way to kick start things for sure! Do you have anyone your friends with or a family member you could do this with????

    I feel you. Competitions motivate me and the only time I lost weight was a combination of joining this site and a biggest loser contest at work. I came in second to the contest and then fell off the wagon. We just started another contest so now I am back. It does motivate me and keeps me going.
    Maybe you can get together with friends, family or bring it up to your co-workers and see what they think about donig a biggest loser competition.
