Weight-Loss Amazing Race Style Challenge

Weight-Loss
I actually have a bag of frozen brussels in my freezer. As I actually like them!!!
So I guess you could say "I got this one in the bag!"
 
I LOVE Brussel Sprouts:) Thanx:)!!!Im wonderin if we made it - Im dying with antisipation but Im sure I wont have a loss this week - so Im thinking our chances are pretty limited:( Only time will tell...2 days 2 go.
 
It looks like another one that we both do Dawn as I have a bag of Brussels sprouts actually sitting in my fridge (no room in the freezer) ready for this weekend's dinners. I am definitely going to be eating this anyway - whoever takes credit is a little academic since we have each done a roadblock.

Week 7 Results

1. Exercise Bunnies--31.6pts, 2.6lbs lost
2. Omega-3---------24.4pts, 3.6lbs gained
3. MILF Battlers-----0pts
4. Red Ladies--------0pts

This week was tricky, as one person from 2 teams failed to update in time. If someone fails to update, their team doesn't get any pts, so neither the MILF/Aussie Battlers nor the Red Ladies got any pts this week. So, to choose who got eliminated, I totaled up both team accumulative weight loss pts--not including this week since I'm missing full statistics and don't want to give people with gains an advantage to not updating. Therefore, the Red Ladies are eliminated, as they lost less weight overall--even if you don't count the 10lbs that Shannon lost last week (which was probably due to using a different scale, as his weight's been considerably higher since he went back to his normal scale), the MILFs have a 6.1lb advantage.

I'm sorry Red Ladies. I hope you'll all continue to do the 2nd chance for the last week. I know Lori wants to eat those brussel sprouts. :)
 
Well crap, I was so certain we were gonna get booted that I didn't buy any brussels sprouts at the market today. I guess I'll have to run back on sunday.

Where is Shannon anyways? It's not like him to not post his progress.

LOL! I thought you'd be relieved not to be eliminated, not annoyed b/c you didn't buy sprouts. :biggrinjester: You'd need them anyway for the 2nd chance. :) Actually, Kim loves brussel sprouts, too. So she may have bought some.
 
I know cerella I am in shock. Hope we can pull it off a second time.

Geovicsha why was the phone/net down? Storm or something of the like messing with the lines?
 
Oh my word, I am SHOCKED over this weeks elimination, I thought for sure we were "OUT" as Heidi Klum says in that Fashion challenge program she hosts. But, I'm happy we still have a chance. I LOVE BRUSSEL SPROUTS and will eat those everyday!! One of my favorite veggies, I KNOW everyone is saying OH GROSS! but I do, I've loved them all my life, and with a little vinegar,mmmmmm steam them and they are great!

I've had a very serious rough busy week and work and haven't posted much, but I'll be sure to get on tonight and try to get updated again. Love and Hugs to you all, have a great WEEKEND! time for me to go look at cars again, I HATE THAT!

Wait, it would have been a huge gain had I updated and thus instead eliminated?

No, the only reason you weren't eliminated is b/c Wulsk didn't update as well. If she had updated, and you hadn't, your team would've been eliminated. If you had updated, you would still be in it b/c Wulsk didn't update. I have made the rules so that it never benefits your team not to update. Normally, not updating would've been sure elimination. You got VERY lucky.

Now, go update your weight, or else you'll post another gain next week.
 
miss ladybug-I am interested in brussel sprouts I never know how to cook them, I see them in produce aisle looking all strange, we really like to try new fruits veggies so could you tell me specifically how to cook them? Or do you use frozen? I think I tried that before but was not sure what to do with them so I microwaved them (a poor turnout).

One step ahead of you. ;)
 
Just wanted to wish everyone well with the final weigh in tomorrow.

It's been a great challenge, and I want to thank you all for participating. You all did a great job, and exercised your little buns off--so congrats!!

If you are in the 2nd chance running, please make sure you have all of your updates logged by Saturday at Noon EST (GMT -5)

Just an fyi--I'm going out tomorrow night and might not be back until rather late. So I'm not sure when I'll have results posted. It's a tequila party, so it might not be until Saturday. :D You still need to log your final weight, etc by the usual time, though. If everyone gets things logged before 6pm EST, I can post results before I leave. :)

I'm sorry Mom2 that I did not get the chance to post about the brussel sprouts, I buy both fresh and frozen, and I love my steamed in a steamer until tender, and you can put either a small amount of butter on them or I like them with vinagar, mmmmmm! It seems my team mates have not posted yet, UH OH! I know Amy is going to Ohio, so she may not have time. Oh well, it was so much fun and thanks everyone for such a good race!! Thanks Twin for keeping us all in check and keeping up with the so called Bookkeeping!! You did a great job and your roadblocks were off the charts, WAY TO GO!!
I had a great time, and I hope to enter into another one in the furture, but I must take some time off first, I haven't posted lately because I'm working out some plans to make a career change, for the better which is wonderful, but I've been trying to tie up loose ends so speak, and thus the reason I have not had time to post, sorry everyone! I do miss coming in daily, I really do!! Good luck to everyone on your future ventures!! I'll still be around, just not every day. HUGS AND LOVE
Kim
