Weight-Loss Biggest Loser Style New Year's Challenge Sign Ups

[Aleeluh]

Just a quick question: do we note down our weight in pounds to one decimal place (i.e. 165.3 as opposed to 165)?

Earlier in the thread she stated we could get half a point for .5 of a pound etc! So I would write it down

True, true! My brain is still a bit fuzzy after all the New Year's celebrations!

HOW YOU GET POINTS
1. You’ll get 1pt for every pound you lose and -1pt for every pound you gain. If you lose .5lbs you’ll get a half point. If you gain .5lbs you’ll lose a half pt. If you gain .8lbs you’ll lose .8pts and you’ll get .2pts if you lose .2lbs. If your weight is the same from the previous week you’ll get 0pts
2. You’ll get 3pts for every 30min that you exercise each week for a max of 21pts per week. For every 30min you exercise beyond 210min, you’ll get 1 pt for a max of 3 additional pts. So 24pts total are available for exercising 5hrs each week.
3. Each week there will be 1 additional bonus that will be announced the Wednesday prior. The pts for these bonuses will vary from week to week.

Someone posted on my team thread about water allotment. Did I miss something somewhere? (I have finished 2/3 of my 32 oz bottle so far, but need to know if water is required as well).

I am up over 3 lbs from the end of the last challenge, so it's a good thing this one is starting!!

There is no water requirement--at least not this week. But it could be a future bonus.

Someone asked about exercise earlier, whether only cardio counted, or if weights also did. ALL exercise counts, whether it's aerobic or anaerobic.
