Passing the Torch

There are a few people (myself included) who would like to continue on with another biggest loser. Unfortunately, I don't really have all that much time to contribute right now. Is there anyone who would like to take the reins? Alternately, I could "co-host" with someone as long as that person was up for doing the weekly tabulations.

Any takers?

    I should also add that I'd like to make a motion to move the weigh in to Friday. Weighing in after the weekend (and cheat day) is killing me!
  • I second the motion of moving the weigh in day!! Friday is a much better idea! I could Co host with you too! Let me know!

    Excellent. Any input on how long the competition should be? Oct? Nov? When it officially turns into winter? (conveniently on a Friday...)

    Or is that too long? That's 22 weeks, so there's the potential for people to lose 22-44lbs, at best (according to healthy weight loss guidelines). I certainly have more than that to lose, however if someone has less and/or thinks they will lose what they need to in less time than the competition, I don't want to exclude them from joining.
  • How about we have it start Friday, and run until November 23? That will give us an 18 week window and it will end the week before Thanksgiving. Thoughts?

    I think we should do 8-12 week increments. I think it helps with the short term goals. I don't mind if we move the weigh in to Friday though

    We could do from now until fall, which would be 9 weeks, and then another from fall until winter, which would be 13 weeks.
  • That sounds like a good plan!
