Biggest Loser Season 8 Challenge

[Buddrfly]

I am a huge Biggest Loser fan, and Season 8 starts this Tuesday. Sooooooooooo, lets lose with the Losers! Post your before, during, and after progress pics, inches, and weight lost for the duration of the show. Make sure you set a realistic challenge goal.. setting it too high, may cause depression and back sliding if the goal is not met--and setting it too low, won't make you dig in and give it all you've got! I wonder if we can lose at the same rate or faster?????? Who's game? Copy the list and add your name and stats--we CAN do this!

The stats are CSW/CW/CGW (CSW= Challenge start weight/ CGW= Challenge goal weight), a sign up pic is required, and inches should be posted as follows;

Upper Arm--lft and rt
Lower Arm--lft and rt
Waist
Hips
Thigh--lft and rt

The inches will only be posted for inital sign up, and challenge end comparison. The weight loss stats will be updated weekly along w/ your weekly lbs lost goal.

This site can be used to calculate the percentage of weight lost each week..just in case you guys wanna check out your losses from that stand point.

Just to confirm The Biggest Loser Season 8 starts Tuesday, therefore, we will be weighing in (posting lbs lost) every Tuesday, starting this Tuesday September 15th. This will keep our challenge weigh-ins in sinc with the timing of the show. When they have their final weigh-in, we'll have ours. LAST SEASON'S SHOW STARTED IN JANUARY AND ENDED IN MAY...so we're lookin at atleast 5-6 months of accountability!

If you think you can hang....WELCOME TO THE CHALLENGE!

OMG, I didn't realize that it was starting so soon! I checked and next week, ****'s Kitchen isn't listed so I can watch TBL. I love that show. About this challenge, I was planning on doing Body For Life starting next week. Hmmm...I'll think over the weekend and make a decision.

ETA: ****'s Kitchen is the Gordon Ramsay show. I guess ADBB bleeps out the name of the show just like they do with him on TV in the States.

Hello Mizski

Whatever you decide is fine with me, but I hope you'll join me in losing....just pop in whenever you're ready.

Also, anyone is welcome to pop in and cheer us on... we can never have enough motivation!

I watched the first few episodes of He11's Kitchen, and havent been able to catch it since.... I work crazy hours, so I'll be DVRing all of TBL episodes.

Good deal! Glad to have you back! I know you will lose down past that 175 though...you're just as much of a workout machine as I am!

I forgot...I'm going in for major surgery sometime in the next month. Hopefully I'll know my schedule better when I meet with the surgeon a week from Tuesday.

Anyways, I can't make any challenge commitments. I CAN be a cheerleader though!

[Buddrfly]

Well, bring on the pom-poms girl!

[happymomto4]

I'd like to join this challenge! Do I have to wear bike shorts and sleeveless t-shirt for my pics though? That might be a deal-breaker for me! Even just a regular picture with workout clothes is going to be bad enough. Also, can we weigh in sans clothes?
