Saturday weight in-
Everyone is invited to weigh in.
Please come to my house between 9 and 10 in the morning for the final weigh in. I would suggest weighing in on the scale that you used for your first weigh in. So if it was your own scale bring it.
I know some people are worried about wearing clothes while weighing in. (you naked weirdos)  Maybe weigh in at home and see what clothes add the least amout of weight to you.
If you don't live nearby, please send in a video of your weigh in at your house. And if there is some way to show the date when you weigh in that would be great.

You guys have been doing awesome! I'm so glad you all decided to join me on this journey, and I hope that it was worth it to you!

Sidenote: I'm kinda mad.... last week I found a blog that had a weight loss contest and they did it different that would have made things easier for everyone to have a chance to win. They had a winner for pounds lost and they also had a points system for weekly challenges they did. And the person with the most points also won. So that made it so people that were working so hard but weren't dropping weight could still have a chance to win something.
So in conclusion.... if I ever host another contest, it will most likely be one that has points and pounds!!! I just wish I would have found the idea 10 weeks ago!!!

What an upset in the top 5. That was really hard for me to come to terms with. Stupid plateau. But great job everyone!!

How do you guys feel about having the final weigh in on Saturday March 10. That way people can weigh in when it's morning and hopefully get a better weight. Remember this is a live weigh in at my house. Also does everyone want to weigh in live or should we just do the top 8 or 10 people? Let me know your opinions.

Good Job guys!!!

Tip: Are you drinking enough water. Water is a great way to help aid your weight loss. It's recommended to drink 1/2 ounce per pound or if you are active and exercising 2/3 ounce per pound.
So if you are active and weigh 150 pounds you should be drinking about 100 oz of water a day. That's almost 3 liters.

Good Luck Everyone!!!!

PS. Even though it might not be your most favorite thing to do, I suggest taking a before picture. It's always motivating to look back at how far you've come and it helps to keep you from going back I think.

Welcome

We have 17 people participating in our contest.

The winners will get the following:

1st place - $220
2nd place - $100
3rd place - $20

*Any weights that are .5 and below will be rounded down and any weights that are .6 and above will be rounded up.

Each week I will post the weekly percentages and overall percentages for everyone. This will give you a good idea on where you stand each week so you can push yourself for the next week.

After the 1st weigh in you will just weigh in at home and send me a text with a picture of your weight on the scale by 10 am every Monday. If no text is received from you by 10 am I will just enter a zero for your weight loss. The contest will go for 10 weeks with the final weigh in also being at my house.
For those living a great distance for the final weigh in, I will ask you to do a video weigh in just to make it fair for everyone. I trust everyone to be honest but just for everyone's peace of mind we'll do it that way.

RULES.....




*No fast fixed diets!!! No HCG, cleanse, detoxes, diet pills. This contest is to help you have a healthy lifestyle. So please be honest!

*If we do catch anyone cheating you will be disqualified and you will not receive your money back.

*If you chose to drop out of the competition your money is {non} refundable......NO EXCEPTIONS
