Biggest Loser?
Hi everyone,
Well, I got up today intending on weighing (which I've been avoiding alot lately) Anyway, I have digital scales that take a lithium battery. The battery is over a year old, so I guess it's needing replaced. It had me weighing a wide variety of weights, so after church I'm gonna trek up to the YMCA and get on their scales. I hate this, because I really wanted to weigh this morning. By the way, I have GAINED. Oh well, at least I am getting ahold of this before I get too carried away. I'm pretty excited about the Biggest Loser thing. I'm not sure if you are all up for it still or not. I work for elderly people and stay 24-36 hour shifts sometime to get my hours in all at once, so I can't check in here like I'd like to. I want to do it though! Also, my daughter, mom and sister are beginning with me today as well. It's gonna run Oct. 1-Dec. 17, so we'll have extra $ before Christmas. As for us four, we're gonna pitch in $25 each into a pot and whoever loses biggest % is gonna win $100 Christmas money. Cool, huh? We're all psyched. Okay, hope everyone is having a nice weekend. It's supposed to get hot here by Tuesday, grrr. I suffer allergies and was hoping for a freeze!
So, if anyone else is interested, let's all post our weight here sometime today, okay? Then maybe, we can record our losses, what? Once a week? You all can help me decide. Also, what do you all think of Michael's suggestion about Amazon.com as the place to get a gift certificate for the winner? Are we going with $5 each or what? Let me know. Have a nice day.

Well, I replaced the battery in mine and it has me at 232. It's ridiculous but a starting point. I went for a good walk this afternoon and feel good about that but boy, it got hot all of the sudden! Supposed to be 94 tomorrow here, yuck. SO, if you're interested in being a big old loser with me, let's go!
Hugs,
Kelly
Hi Michelle,
Good to see ya! Yay, another contestant. If it's okay, we tell our official weights today or yesterday, since hardly nobody responded yesterday. Well, I guess you did that. Then, we'll go until Dec. 17th and record our dates then. Whoever loses the biggest % of their body weight wins the pot. May only be $15 at this point. Only 3 of us have signed on so far. Anyway, someone suggested a gift certificate from Amazon or whatever else we decide. We have to figure out a way for the Biggest Loser to get their prize money. I do paypal alot for ebay. Not sure if we could just send $ to the winners paypal acct. or what. Okay? Yep, we CAN do it. I need allll the support and motivation I can get, too. Have a happy.

Better late than never but I'm IN if it's not too late! My goal is to lose 25 pounds by Christmas - that will put me at my personal goal of 149 (I want to be under 150 ) - I weighed in yesterday morning (10/2) at 174 and I'm off an running chasing you all to win the prize!
Maybe we can set up some sort of schedule of what type of exercise we should do on a daily basis? (Monday - situps; Tuesday - 25 lunges on each leg; etc etc.) just a thought!
doesn't matter - cause I'm going to WIN this challenge
