Whatcha Think??? You In???
There has been several interested in doing another Biggest Loser contest. Here are the rules, subject to change, but for now this may answer some questions. Read the rules below, hopefully this will answer any questions. Many who live a bit of a distance are welcome to join in the fun. You will need to be at the 1st, a middle, and last weigh in. You will need to text or email your weight from your home scale each week. This may make it a little off from the scale at my house, but it will keep you accountable and in the game without having to drive each week to my home. Weigh in's are every Saturday morning 8:45 a.m. to 9:15 a.m. @ my house (75 W. 575 N. Kaysville).
This has always been a great contest to help people get healthier and feel better. It is a volunteer effort on my part so there is bound to be a mistake here and there. I try everything I can to recheck my math and especially at the end of the competition. So, remember you're getting what you pay for.
1. $55.00 entrance fee to be collected at first weigh in. $50 towards final prize winnings, $5 each person to go towards weekly challenge prizes.
2. Weigh in same clothes each weigh in, preferably shorts and t-shirt, No shoes
3. Weigh ins are Saturday mornings 8:45- 9:15 a.m. If arrangements need to be made for another time to weigh in a $2 penalty will be added to the pot to be divided among the winners. This has always been a rule, but never enforced...this time I will collect. I don't mind doing different times but should be a penalty due to others weighing in on the scheduled time.
4. Percent of weight loss determines winner, not most pounds lost
5. Participants can miss two weigh ins, but not consecutively and still be included in participation prize.
6. Before pictures will be taken, but not posted on blog. This will help you to see your progress.
7. All weights will be kept confidential, however percentages will be posted weekly on blog.
8. NO HCG, or other drastic means to accomplish weight loss i.e. weight loss shake only diets. This has to be a diet and exercise game/contest. Also, please, please, please, do not drink a bunch of water at the first weigh in. This messes up the game and to be honest, it will catch up with you. (sorry, had to put that this time, too many people tell me it happens)
10. Contest begins - August 31st, 2013 and runs for 12 weeks. Contest ends - November 16th, 2013
More to come...so stay tuned. Remember you could be the biggest loser.
Come on...what have you got to lose???
