SIGN UP CLOSES 6TH MAY!! - FIRST WEIGH IN THREAD OPENS FROM 7TH-8TH MAY FOR STARTING WEIGHTS - SPREAD THE WORD EVERYONE!*
Hello all! Following another thread I set up I figured I'd go ahead and set up a Biggest Loser Challenge for the UK Chicks area!
What on earth is the Biggest Loser?
The Biggest Loser is a reality TV show based in America (there's a UK version too) where obese contestants compete to lose the most amount of weight to win a prize of $250,000. There are eliminations and challenges each week, but considering this is just a friendly supportive message board I think we should narrow it down to see who can lose the most weight!
So how will this work on the 3 Fat Chicks forum?
Basically we'll mimic certain aspects of the show.
You'll weigh in at the beginning of the challenge and that will be your starting weight.
Then each week there will be a weigh in. Based on your starting weight we will calculate your percentage of weight loss, and that will count towards where you rank.
This will simply continue until the end date, which is when your total amount of weight loss percentage will be calculated and a winner will be announced!
Are there any rules?
Just be honest with how much you weigh in each week!
If you miss your weigh in dates, then your weight loss will NOT be counted. So if you manage to lose 14 pounds, but missed a weekend - then whatever you lost that weekend will be deducted from your overall weight loss.
Weigh in threads will be open for 2 days - plenty of time to pop in and score your weight! If you think you will not be available PRIOR to the dates, then let me know and I'll take your number from you earlier - but it's best to make it for the weekend weigh ins so you have all week to shred off those pounds!
Sounds spiffing! How do I sign up?
Just reply to this thread saying you're up for the challenge and I will enter your name on this very post!
How long will this go on for?!
6 weeks. Not too short, not too long I reckon!
I've seen the show and seen other members do this, will there be teams?
Nope! It's all about you baby!
Is there a prize?
You becoming thinner, fitter, healthier and prouder than ever!
I think that's about all there is to mention! Hope to see lots of people interested, I'm well up for a challenge!
