Weight-Loss Guys versus Girls Biggest Loser Type Contest

Weight-Loss
Guys versus girls based on team average of percentage weight loss. Weekly weigh in, and we will do it for 10 weeks. Anyone interested?
 
I'm in.

I was going to wait awhile before joining another challenge, but....... I can't resist this one. When do we start????
 
Count me in!
We need to come up with some guidelines etc...
How will it work?

I too can walk, talk, and do the dance! :D
 
Ok, when does the other challenge end? We should wait until one thing ends before starting another. Good call.

Also, we will figure out points this way- each week everyone weighs in, and posts how much they have lost. This will be done on the honor system. Then we add everyones weight loss, and divide it by our combined starting weight. It will give us the percentage of weight lost each week. Whoever has the higher percentage gets the point for that given week. This way allows us to have uneven teams. So 100 girls could sign up, and 10 boys, and the boys would still have a chance, because its an average. Does that make sense? Also, if the teams were equal, the boys would have it easier because generally speaking they lose more weight, because they are bigger. Doing percentages takes that out.

What else?

Since Guys will go up 7-0, we will probably win after 7 weeks. I kid.
 
I'm coming back Monday and with many less guys on this board, I will boldly accept the responsibility and join this challenge.

Since most folks are doing the Friday Scale Day On going challenge.. and the other two week challenge ends tomorrow - why not have this challenge start up tomorrow as well... that way - the weigh ins can continue on friday...

start up a new thread tomorrow, if that's indeed when you want to start, and get everyone to post their starting weights... and i would just edit the initial post so it's all in one place and you know whos playing... :D

Mal- Sounds awesome. I will weigh in tommorow, and start the thread. Everyone else who is interested do the same. We are posting initial weights.
 
I'll do it. I'm about to kick it up a notch, I vow 18 pounds gone at the end of the 10 weeker.
