Final Results Posted Way to go Everyone!! Thanks for the Participation!!

Signs Ups are officially closed. Week 1 begins on April 25th and this challenge will continue for 12 weeks.

We will continue with weighin on Wednesday and will continue with the same rules as last challenge. If you do not weigh in for three weeks in a row then you will be dropped from the competition unless you have made other arrangements with me. Results will be able to be posted faster this time around because of some revamping to the spreadsheets, etc.

So lets begin sign ups!!

There isn't much to the rules.

Here are the Teams. The rules are stated as above. Please post your weights in here every Wednesday. If you miss weighing in more than three weeks in a row then you will be eliminated from the competition. Good luck and if you have any questions or concerns email me at TRHorses621@hotmail.com. I will post the results in this thread every week. If you want to start your own thread for your team for encouragement and motivation then you may do so. If you want to develop a team name then just let me know what the name is and I will change it from Team 1, 2, or 3 to the name you wish to be called. Good luck everyone!!

Official Rules: Everyone is responsible to weigh in on Wednesdays. I am not going to track you down for your weigh in amount. If you do not weigh in for three weeks in a row then you are dropped from the challenge. I am going to calculate weigh loss like we did last challenge. I am not going to change how we did it from the first part. It seemed to work out well because we did it by teams not individual. There is going to be three teams. All you have to do is hit post reply to this message and put your team number and your weight for the week then hit post. This will post your weights for me to receive and calculate. The challenge lasts for 12 weeks. Results will be posted by Sunday of every week. I will put a link in this main thread to the results. If anyone has any questions please feel free to email me at TRHorses621@hotmail.com because I cannot always see your questions as quickly as I would like to.

Thanks everyone for your participation.

thedy you have been included.  You posted within the deadline that I set for the few late weigh ins. 

aimeelarue - I will change team 3's name when I post the results.

Hi - I thought biggestloserfan had posted my weight - I'm afraid I should so here goes:  248 at start.  There's now it's official!  Nice to be here.  Z

Ok the deadline has passed so the seven from Team 1 and 2 and the eight from Team 3 will be removed from the competition.  Thanks for all other participants.

Ok Next week: If you miss a weigh in it is alright because I will just use this week's weigh in to calculate your team's particpation.  However, if you miss three weigh ins then you will be eliminated from the challenge.

I always post when I am beginning to work on results so you have up until then to post your weight but don't always count on having extra time because sometimes I get to the results by Thursday  morning.

This week was for initial weigh ins only.  Next week we will begin assigning weekly winners based on weight loss.  Thanks to everyone who participated and keep up the great work and great motivation!!

biggestloserfan, I have a question. Will the winning team be determined by the total weight lost? or by the percentage of weight lost. Just wondering since the teams have different begining weights would it be more fair to do percentages? just wondering

 This is the first challenge I do like this, so I'm not sure if this was already discussed or not...

I go by pounds weight loss for instance if team 1 loses 5lbs and Team 2 loses 3lbs and Team 3 loses 7 lbs then Team 3 would win for that week.  Then during Week 12 I do teams and individual overall weight loss.  Each week I will post the top loses for the week as well per team.  I haven't done it by percentages and it has seemed to work our fairly in the past.  Cause I go by # of lbs lost overall not looking at the total weight loss.  Does this make sense?

I guess I can look at the percentages and see if it makes a difference.  I will try this the first week and see if it equates to the same team winning, etc.  I just can't do this for the individuals because there are too many participates to try and do this.  I could do it for the last week however.  I will try it and see how it works and let you all know after next week.

In your example Team 3 wins.  Foreshadowing, I'd say. ;D

BiggestLoserfan - I am a bit of a dork and put together an excel spreadsheet for our team (#1) and it calculates each persons weightloss and their percentage AND the total... I could send this to you and you could easily add the other 2 teams... let me know!  I know I am a bit of a dork putting that together - but I LOVE spreadsheets!  LOL - ok I am going to go now I am looking like even more of a dork than I intended!  :)  HAPPY LOSING!

OH yeah... and TEAM 1 - do we have a name or what?

Like I said previously, I will calculate both for the first week.  If it changes the results then I will consider keeping it for the rest of the weeks.  However, if it remains the same team then we will just continue to look at weight lost instead of percentages.  This is how we have done it for the past two challenges so I will see what happens.  Make sense to everyone?

biggestloserfan - hi, we've finally come up with a name for TEam 2, it's "Mutiny on the Booty". Can you please change our name up top when you get a second? Thanks soooo much!!

biggestloserfan - Team 1 is officially Pound Pouncers now =)

Can you change this when you have a chance? Thank you! And thank you for taking the time to do this challenge!!

Come on now! Time to finish the night strong! It is 6:20pm, I am going to drink one of two more 16 oz glasses of water and than walk 3 miles, than one more 16 once glass of water. Gotta weigh in tomorrow!!! We can do this!!! Everyone go get one last burst of exercise, just like the shows "Last Chance workout!" Even if it is 50 jumping jacks or a quick run around the block!!!

Ooh, I'm first again.
