Great job everyone!!
I
know I really benefited from this challenge and it help me get a jump start on
losing the extra pounds. I definitely
needed the motivation. For those of you
who want to continue to lose weight, I have another competition proposal for
you. The rules are a little different
and ANYBODY can join and win! Here are
the rules (let me know how many of you want to do it):
1. Everyone sets a goal weight (one that is
worthwhile, but not impossible)
2. Everyone votes on the fairness of the all the
goal weights and adjust accordingly
3. Everyone puts a certain amount of money into
the pot (enough to make you really not want to lose it) (Think of it as a great
way to save some Christmas spending money)
4. For those who meet their goal weight and
maintain it during the contest (Let's say until Thanksgiving day) they get
their money back. For those who
don't: they divide it among those who
did. So basically you are competing against yourself for your own money, but
you may end up with more.
5. There will be a few surprise weigh-ins just
to keep us on track.
6. The first person to meet their goal gets to
add some cushion weight to their final goal (so that they are more likely to
get their money back)
It's just an
idea...I know for me, this works better because I am working against myself but
it is enough motivation for me to maintain my weight loss. For those who want to join in, let me know
and start thinking of a weight goal and
the amount of money we should put in.
Once again....congrats to everyone!
Every single person lost weight!
Good job everyone!
