It's not too late to join...

We have had a few additions to the competition since friday which is great! The newest challengers are Jeff, Dan H., and Brisa. I believe that brings us up to 21 competitors.

Dan Elmer suggested that as a reward for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, we could all send in a 10 dollar gift card and when the winners finally emerge, there will be enough for the winners to get some new clothes that fit them. Or we could just do it for bragging rights. I'll open up a survey on the Blog and we'll see what everyone wants to do.

Rob E. suggested that we all send in pictures of ourselves so that we could do a before and after comparison. I think it's a great idea and i'll start posting the pictures of you that you send me on the blog if you want to participate that way, if not that's fine too.

Remember, everything will remain confidential, unless you let it slip what your code name is, so guard it with your life. Remember, be as active or as inactive as you want, any method works, South Beach, Grapefruit, Atkins, FEN-FEN, OkGo Treadmill exercise routine, whatever. Even getting sick and losing ten pounds in a week is totally okay, just so long as it is a legitimate sickness. So go ahead, eat a whole box of All-bran for breakfast, you might just win this thing!

  1. Will the weight loss be merely poundage or will it be percentage?

  2. Hot Pants,
    Absolutely the weightloss will be posted as a percentage of weight lost and not merely poundage which can tend to be skewed,that way every one is competing at an equal level.

  3. I'm not sure about the picture thing. I get a strange feeling my before pic will be very similar to my after pic. I'm in need of some serious motivation!
