I like the all out competition. I think that would help keep me motivated (I'm grasping I know!). If there a tie I would say the money could be split between those who tied. Does that work?
Yeah, I think it does. Here's another question, though. I like that last time we tried to do it as percentages so that it could be fair.
So if you have one person who weighs 150 and another who weighs 200, the second person could potentially win b/c they lost more simply b/c the first person didn't have a starting weight that was high enough. Am I going over-board?
I thought I posted this already, but here it is again. Yes I am in! Joy, we did talk about this a long time ago. I would like to wait and start it next Friday, the 20th, since I just found out about the contest today. I need to rid my house of a few goodies that cannot be here if I am dieting! Let me know people!
1. Be Honest (to yourself and to the group). There's lots of room for cheating with this system. However, other options, such as having us all weigh in at one place would be impossible as we are all in different places. 2. Weekly weigh-ins must be recorded on the same day for the benefit of all the players. 3. Use whatever weight loss methods work for you. There are no restrictions, but we strongly encourage using healthy weight loss methods and learning strategies that you will be able to stick with once the competition is over with.

One against all would eliminate the math problems but what if two or even three of us lose the same amount?

yes, Kate4 - way overboard. Everyone would need to reveal their true starting weight!
Yes, Joy I will keep the money again. BTW - when did I sign up??
We could post our weekly percentage weight loss and not pounds at all?
Joan! I'm so, so sorry!
I guess you didn't sign up. Do you want in or are you not interested. I can keep the money.
