Hey folks. Well less than 24 hours and I will begin creating our teams for the next challenge! WOOHOOOO!

Don't forget to sign up for the challenge if you haven't already done so. Also make sure you put a starting weight. I can't put you on a team without one. Come back sometime on the 8th for team announcements. January 9th will start each teams chat thread, nutritional journal, and last chance workout threads. First weigh in will be January 16th!!

:hug:

Yah! Almost time to start. =) I went back to update my start weight. A lot of people signed up! I hope everyone remembers and joins in.

I'm down 4lbs this week. 3 more and I'll be back to my pre-Christmas-disaster low. =)

Today is a strength day. So 30 minutes of that plus another 30 to 60 of cardio.

Hope everyone has a lovely day!

I've hit a serious plateau. Hopefully it won't hold my team back too much :D

Hi everyone looking forward to starting and getting our teams going. Great job on the chat thread you have all been a very busy bunch.....that's awesome.

sooooo needing this to start! I need to get into competitive mode to really get my butt moving! Hope you all are doing well and looking forward to pushing each other to give 100%!

Sooo glad this is about to start, I've been "stuffing it" with my emotions (one year anniversary of son Seth's unexpected passing).:cry: Trying to get my mind back into health and today I have had POP day - whooot!:cp:

Congrats to all you who are already revved up and losing, your enthusiasm is contagious. I actually did 5 whole minutes on the elliptical and stacked firewood today. Here's to a great season of losing.:high:

Thanks! :) I get so overwhelmed sometimes looking at what I have left to lose that I often forget how far I have come since the beginning. Thank you for the kind words!

Teams will be up later in the morning. I'm waiting on a few people to email me back (I gave them a time limit) because they didn't put a starting weight. After that time limit has passed I will post the team announcements.

PLEASE, do not post any threads for your team. Only your team leader can do that. We will continue using this thread until Sunday evening when each team will get their new threads for the challenge. So, when team announcements are made you will need to find your team's weigh in thread and copy and paste your weigh in schedule BUT not until your team leader has posted the thread. Thanks so much!!!

It's going to get super busy on here starting Sunday night! WOOHOOOOOO!!

Hey all,

Team announcements are up.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE :) :carrot: Wait for your team leader to make your weigh in thread before you start posting your reply.

Also both teams- no official or unofficial threads for the teams until Sunday evening. Both teams can continue to chat here in this thread until tomorrow evening.

Thanks for participating!!

Hi everyone,
Well it's here time for a new challange. I have so far to go on this one so it is needed badly. This will be great.

Best of luck to everyone on both teams as we are truly all in this together. It is a battle we can all come out winners on.

Well it's a day for inside activities it's cold and we are in a blowing snow warning now. I'm off so indoors it is.

Have a great day everyone

Blue Team the WI thread is up:)

:carrot: WOOHOOO nixmon....great job on the NO SMOKING!! what a great NEW YEAR NEW YOU!!! :carrot:

I have been doing good so far. I have been using the eliptical trainer for 30 minutes and have been burning about 400 cals. I have not had that much sugar at all. I feel a difference in my body. I think my love handles have gone down. This Biggest Loser Challenge is sure to keep us going!

Hi all,

So excited to get started with this, I packed on a lovely 7lbs in December, so I gotta get back into it. I'm starting tomorrow with the new WW points plus program and a new excercise program!

Have a great day everyone!
