  • Lose with the Losers Challenge

    I am a huge Biggest Loser fan, and Season 7 starts this Tuesday. Sooooooooooo, lets lose with the Losers! A 13 week challenge-- post your before, during, and after progress pics, inches, and weight lost for the 91 day stretch. 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--lets get it yall!

    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 is the site I will be using to calculate the percentage of weight lost each week..just in case you guys wanna have a look see before each weeks weigh-in.
    http://www.freedieting.com/tools/wei...calculator.htm

    Just to confirm The Biggest Loser Season 7 starts Tuesday, therefore, we will be weighing in (posting lbs lost) every Tuesday, starting next Tuesday Jan 13th. This will keep our challenge time in sinc with the timing of the show. When they have their final weigh-in, we'll have ours.

    Today is my jump off, and I've already gotten started! I will be working out for the next 3 months...drinking up on my water, and staying true to the plan. I will report here in 2 weeks, with my initial losses/inches, then every week after, with my progress in weight lost. I got my grocery shopping done-- plenty of snacks, etc, to keep it interesting and fun! I will also be taking before, during, and after pictures to track my progress.

    Lets see those pics and stats-- I'll have my before pic up tomorrow!

    I have tried to do this on my own for 3 seasons of my very favorite show BIGGEST LOSER! I think this challenge is just what I need to get me motivated and have the accountability. Awesome!!

    It is nice seeing a picture where I actually have a neck!

      Glad to have ya Debi! We can help each other along the way. I thought 3 months was a pretty good amount of time to shape it up and slim it down! I DVR the show, when I can't be home to watch....it's the only show I actually keep track of.

        I'm game...I'm also a biggest loser fan. I am amazed at the difference in my left side to the right side

        Stats-288/281.6/230 Wk 1 Goal: 5 Pounds

        I updated my measurements as of Tuesday. I originally had my sister do them. We did them tonight at the biggest loser party. Either I've lost some good inches in 5 days or my sister had a little trouble Who knows, but I know I'm going to use the was numbers to keep me motivated and keep me going!

        Upper Arm-- lft and rt: (was 18/19)
        Lower Arm--lft and rt: 12/13
        Waist: 40 (was 42)
        Hips: 57.75 (was 58.75)
        Thigh--lft and rt: 38.5/39.5 (was 36/38-definitely was measured differently)

              Debi and Disney-- make sure the start weight you posted is your weight at the beginning of this challenge. That way you will know how much you lost during this 3 month stretch


              I know what you mean, but you should really enjoy this season. Apparently this the total weight of all the contestants is more than 3.5 tons I know there are gonna be some serious transformations there!

                Since I promised myself that I am going to exercise DAILY. I am going to join this. I need whatever help I can get to stay accountable to myself.

                I will do measurements and weight tomorrow. Since I just took my signature picture two weeks ago, can I use it? I hate the camera!!!

                      I braved the camera with the most form fitting outfit I have (GROSS). I chopped my head because the expression on my face was pitiful. I left the second because at least I was not cross eyed. Keep in mind that this was after a work out...guess this is not a fashion show huh

                              Count me in!! I LOVE Biggest Loser!

                              I have a question about the stats- Are we using our goal weight for only these three months? Or our overall goal, which might take way longer than 3 months?
