Count me in if there's another one. I have a July 4th vaction I need to lose for, not to mention a Nov wedding! I do want to look fab for that!
By my caculations, this gives me 15 weeks from now before the vacation @ 2 lbs lost per week will have me @ 171. Not where I wanted to be, but 30 lbs lighter is always good.
After that I have 19 weeks before my wedding. So 2 lbs loss per week will have me right around 133 to 135 which is exactly where I wanna be, so I sooooooooooooo need a challenge with your girls (and guys?) I am ready and will be continueing my efforts anyways, but doing it with all of you would be more fun!

Reason: Had to add some stuff.....
chellez, can you think of ways we could make the process easier, less work for the team leaders? I know you are swamped...I'm like you, work, home, school....well, no wedding, but I'm dealing with the happy aftermath (husband, pets, etc.). Anyway...we're probably all like that, busybusybusy...tell us how much time you spend each week on the process, what it entails?

in your spare moments, of course.

Really the biggest crunch time is getting all the weights together. That's usually in part because people wait until the day of to do so. I spend the majority of the time asking for numbers. The charts are easy and I actually have a format I follow from the end of the first challenge. The second big thing is keeping the team motivated. I know this challenge was different from the last because there was one team that was very chatty and the other was very quiet. I'm not quite sure how this affects the overall participation but I'd like to have both teams in active discussion.

The only thing I'm afraid of is the reaction from the end of this challenge we are on is going to somehow drizzle itself into a new one if I do take the job so to speak. In either case, if you want me to do it I'm here and I don't mind. All you have to do is ask.
I'm up for another round!! I have to be married in 6 months and I have another at least 20 pounds to go!!! Count me in!!!
PS, bottles of wine assist in a good weigh in if you drink them the night before you're "official" morning weigh in. I don't think that's PC, but it has worked for me a few times!!
I'm asking, chellez! I've really enjoyed this 'challenge' although I have to admit I don't feel very competitive with the blue team...I feel more like we're all in it together.
Maybe this time we could just make it one big team. Would that make it easier? Just limit it to the first 40 who sign up or something.
Remind us Red Teamers of your wedding date, please? Thanks. choosie.
I would be up for another challenge. I haven't posted as much in the chat threads due to time issues, but I've really found the challenge itself motivational, and I would like to keep rolling!
Another Round?
Count me in!!!!
