I'm a huge fan of the show too!

As it stands right now we're at two teams and I've already had two volunteer to lead. I will not be leading either team as I prefer to be able to sit back and help with both teams. I will be a member of one of the teams, but will be tracking everyone's weight from both teams as well just to make sure that everything gets done on time, correctly, etc. I totally have full confidence in my team leaders, but I just want to have a back up just in case.

Also, some suggestions have been made to change a couple of the rules, so please check the rules at some point. Basically, excuses not to weigh in have changed a bit. Also, teams do HAVE to include any gains as well as losses. Remember, we are basing this off from the TV show, and when it's a team challenge, gains count as well.

Sweet! I was so worried because there were only 4 on the team that stuck it out till the end, but I keep forgetting we using percentages too...

WTG Team Mango!!

I lost 12 lbs on the past challenge and am really looking forward to beating that this next challenge!

How is everyone's day shaping up?

It it gorgeous in MI today! I am planning out getting outside to play once I finish meeting a friend for lunch.

Good job everybody!! Congrats to Team Mango!

I am so addicted to BL too. I am a total Jillian girl though. I like Bob, but he has been really whiny this season. I think it would be pretty cool to do black and blue. It would be more like the real show then. Kim, I definitely agree with posting gains as well as losses.

I like the idea of including gains too. I also think there shouldn't be an excuse for not weighing in- after three missed weigh-ins you should be out- imo

Congrats Mango!!!! I am still proud of my banana girls since there were only three of us left

Love the show here too! but since I've changed around my gym schedule I never get to see it anymore. I have to rely on the recaps made on the TBL website and the chat that goes on in here to keep up with what's going on.

akacutie, you lost 12 lbs? that's awesome! 2 lbs a week is nothing to sneer at. I lost 7 and the only reason i kept my sanity during the 6 weeks was reminding myself that I still moved down no matter how slowly it seemed to be happening. It's so easy to lose track of the progress made!

The sad thing is, didn't we start out with the most players?

preppingbride- Thanks! I was happy with my results for the challenge... Oh hey... you should check out hulu.com they show full episode of biggest loser 7 days after it airs on tv... they only keep one episode on at a time and for a week or so, but you can watch the whole show... I missed a lot of this season cause I have classs.... I am sad cause I love the biggest loser, last season I watched every single minute! he he he

I agree with the new changes to the challenge... I though not weighing in for TOM was silly personally. If people know a gain will be counted they might work harder... perhaps?

newlywed we did start with an extra person, but I think so many dropped because it was the last of the sign up list, so maybe more girls who weren't as committed and signed up on a whim- my theory anyway

Hey everyone! We're up to 37, I would say if we break through 40 (I'm hoping for 45) we'll have 3 decent sized teams!

Deadline is coming quickly!!! I'm SUPER excited for the new challenge!!!
