Games & Challenges

*** Sign-ups are now CLOSED.***
Look for Biggest Loser Challanege - Part 9 to start near 1/1/09.

--------

Week 8 weigh-ins will be accepted anytime between Tuesday (11/18/08) and Thursday (11/20/08) at midnight.

--------

Who:  You!
What will happen:  Everyone who signs up will be randomly split into teams.  Like last time, weigh-ins will be held weekly on Tuesday-Thursday (meaning you can weigh-in anytime between Tuesday and Thursday).  You will post your weigh-in results in this thread.  If you miss more than three weigh-ins you will be removed from the challenge.
When will this take place:  The first weigh-in will be 9/30-10/2.  The challenge will go for 14 weeks making the last weigh-in on 12/30-1/1.
How do you win:  There are two ways to win this challenge:  by being part of the biggest loser team with the highest average weight loss OR by being the biggest loser.  The percent loss will be used to determine the winning team and individual.  The percent loss will be calculated using Week 1's weight as a start weight so that we are all starting form the same time.  Beginning in Week 2, every week the winning team and individual will be annouced on Friday or Saturday.  The overall winning team and challenger winner will be announced on 1/2/09.
What do you win:  Bragging rights!

Welcome to everyone!

Hey Alle Girl! So pumped you are doing this! I am in for sure! As a side note though I am taking holidays from work starting September 27th and I wont be back in town until Oct 8th.  SO I will miss the first weigh in! But I do want to be a part of the challenge and I will start weighing in again after the 8th.

Thanks for the heads up KJ, that shouldn't be a problem at all :)

Count me in too

Ooh! Sign me up please...this sounds like fun.
