92xj Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 (edited) RealTree’s Biggest Loser. Starting March 10th we shall have an initial weigh in. In order to be in the contest, a picture of your scale with you on it showing your weight is needed. We will do weekly weigh-ins every Wednesday. The weekly weigh-in will consist of a picture of you and your weight on the scale. The competition will run for 4 weeks and the person with the highest weight loss percentage will win. By doing this publicly it will embarrass us more and hopefully keep us motivated and headed in the right direction. If you would like to be a part of this great event please reply to this thread and have a scale and picture ready on Wednesday. The deadline for entrees will be 9pm Pacific Time. Anyone is welcome, this is not just for fat people like myself. Anyone that wants to lose a little weight and get in shape. Remember you win by percentage not how much total weight you lose, so even a skinny person could win this thing. Any other suggestions?

The_Kat Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Pretty neat idea. I think ya outta leave the money out of it, unless ya wanna make side bets with buddies though pm's or whatever. You'll get a better turnout. I'm gonna sticky this for ya cause I think it's a cool idea. After this thing gets going the thread will prolly go to the contest room. I think yall outta divide into teams to once the sign ups are over. Good luck folks and work hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I'd go in it, but I'd try to see how much weight I could gain. I've packed some pounds on since I got sick back in the fall. I was down to 145lbs, and I'm 6'4" tall. I am now just under 180lbs, usually between 175 and 178. I wouldn't mind being 195-200 to fill out a bit.

Im not really trying to gain weight, but if ya need some motivation we can do a competition. I'm leaving for work so I dunno how good of a work out routine I'm gonna have, but I can take protein and do pushups if all fails. I am fluctuating between 180-190. I'd like to hit 195 and tone up a bit. Interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92xj Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Question Benny....my scale is fairly small, so how am i suppose to get a picture of myself on my scale with my wieght in the pic? Or do you just want 2 pics, one of us on the scale, and one with our wieght? Just a picture of the numbers. No need to see the person and the scale at the same time. I hope we can all be honest about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can always do a round two and three. I think longer than 4 weeks and people will lose interest. Let's do a shorter one and if people get motivated to join in, the second one could start sooner.

Dawg Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Don't own a scale so I'm gonna pass on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92xj Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 Don't own a scale so I'm gonna pass on this. Oh come on! Walmart has them for under 10 bucks. Go get one and do this. I figured you would be the first one to sign up, since I am giving you an opportunity to beat me at something. Let's have a little fun on RT. It's something a lot of people here can't seem to do.

92xj Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 A couple of years ago I dropped 40 lbs and have kept it off. The only thing I changed was I cut all drinks out except water. Well and beer, but I will never give that up. No soft drinks, teas, milk or jucies unless it was low sodium V8. I am also know that unless you are HUGE you can't lose weight by eating better alone. When you sweat you will lose weight. My plan this time is to eat a low calorie diet with no intake of saturated fat and try and stay under 1k cals. We shall see how it goes.
