Christmas Clothes Challenge

Welcome everyone to the Christmas Clothes Challenge! This challenge will start July 16th [ Next Monday. ] What you will do is take a picture of yourself currently and give yourself a goal to meet on December 25th 2007. On that day you will get a new outfit or an outfit you want to fit in really badly and take a picture of yourself in that outfit. The person who loses the most weight in this challenge on December 25th will get a $30 money order from me. This is to motivate everyone. So on December 25th, if you lose the most weight..you'll be recieving the 30 dollar money order! That could buy a nice, nice steak that you would deserve :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :jump: START SIGNING UP! ​
 
sounds like a good challange. i cant post a pic for a few weeks cos theres no one to take one about but illdo it soon. i hope to lose about 30 lb before xmas. and surprisingly i dont really put on weight at xmas. mainly cos im vegan so chocs and meat are out of the question :) the trick will be to keep moving when its cold outside
 
OoooOohhh hooooo.... I'm in! I'm trying to spend the holidays back in Hawaii with my family, so regardless, I'm really wanting to drop a few pounds by then. (I think they'll be surprised at the transformation as it is now.. haha!) Hmmmm a $30 money order, eh? That's too kind of you really, Tommy. My pix will be up and running on Monday.

Hey, what a good idea!! I already have the outfit i want to fit in, i keep it in my closet for motivation.

Do we have to post our before pics or do we keep them and post at the end of the challenge??

My goal is to be at 175 by then! (-40 pds = 1.8pd wkly loss)

Just a suggestion... since people at higher weights tend to drop weight a little easier than people at lower weights, most challenges we've run here tend to be done on highest percentage lost to keep it fair.

you take the starting weight - end weight = weight lost
then divide the weight lost by the starting weight and multiply by 100 and you have the percentage lost :)

it's a simple spreadsheet formula you can use to keep track
 
I just got done talking to the ADMIN. He said he will also throw in a g.c. for $30 to the winner of the challenge :)
