Breakdown

Ok here it is to all you out there who want to join in, here is how it is going to work. Please if you have any suggestions, let me know so we can fix it. or Make changes etc.
* Start Date is Jan 15 end Date is May 15

* Everyone contributes to the pot $25 on or before the start date (Tuesday Jan 15). The pot is being held by Terry ****** [last name removed at her request]. If you do not have your money to her by this date you may still participate, but you have to pay a $5 late fee.

* Any time you weigh in it will be first thing in the morning. try to keep the same amount of clothes on or not on to stay fair.

*Every participant will be able to update on the blog. this means you must do a post once a week. in this post you must tell your weigh in weight for that week and maybe a brief summary of what you did. This is one of the most important parts. I think this will really help us to look at what we are really trying to accomplish and to stick to it. If you find any good articles about different ways to exercise, eating right, good recipes you tried that week etc. you may also fee free to add those. It will help each of us out.

*Must Post on or before Jan 15 your goal. How much you want to lose in the time frame given. Your beginning weight and the pant size you wear.

* Must email a full body picture to Kanien ASAP. Make yourself look cute I hate those before and after pictures, because sometimes the people are like the same, but they wore nasty clothes before. So make yourself look cute and then we can do some before and after pictures. It will be fun. kanien@gmail.com

Break down of the Rewards (these can be changed, I would like your input so let me know.)
The Money!
1. 60% goes to the person who loses the most percentage of weight (ending weight divided by your beginning weight)
2. 20% goes to the person who met their goal.. (if their is more than one, we will have to fight over it. he he, we will work it out.)
3. 15% goes to the person who dropped the most sizes
4. 5% goes to the person who lost the most weight by the half way mark March 15.

So the more people we get to join in I think the more fun we will have. It will be exciting. If you are interested leave me a comment on the blog and I will give you access to the blog, so you can update your own stuff. Don't forget to leave suggestions.

Hey Kanien! So I want to do the biggest loser (I'm not sure if you knew that already or not). So I just need to know how I can put posts on the website so I can get started by posting my current weight, goal weight, etc. Just let me know! Thanks! Amy

I am Amy's brother Jason. I would like to participate, if that is ok with each of you. How can we pay, do you take PayPal? My wife and I would both like to participate. I can send a check too. I will disclose all of my weight and details as we get closer, I would need to get access to post too. I would suggest that we do a total lost in percentages of our weight. Someone who is much heavier would have an advantage in losing their weight without that. They coule lose 60 lbs, in the same time frame, but that would be an unhealthy amount of weight for me to lose. Not sure if this would work better or not though. Tell me what you think.
