Looks like a pretty decent crowd so far. That's good, really good. But we could always use more. I like me a challenge! So come on, don't be shy everyone. If you're interested, be heard. =)
I agree Kyropaladin. I firmly believe in "the more the merrier".
I will put up a scoresheet thread later today with game rules so that we can keep our score stuff all organised. I will also set up a chat thread.
I know that some people hate the maths side of bonus point challenges - so if they tell me that they have done the work - I will work out the numbers.
Although it kicks off at the end of the week - I will not close the challenge to new entrants. Anyone starting late will have the disadvantage of not having had as long to lose weight or accrue bonus points for their efforts to lose weight.
It could be that people see how much fun we are all having (and how successful we are being which always made me feel GREAT) and want to keep on joining all challenge long. They would be more than welcome.
Sounds like a good plan. And if you need (or want) help with the "math" side of the challenge, I'd be more than happy to assist. I actually enjoy math, and it would actually be nice to get a numbers view in my own head about how the challenge is going. Lemme know.
Thanks. I wish I had the time to start one up, but even with the in-laws gone, May is just way too time consuming. I'm glad you are up for doing one instead.
Who would have guessed that May would be taking up your time.
Just be sure you dont yell plagiarism too loud when you see your spelling mistakes!!!! You might wake the baby!
I would never think of some of the things that you have threatened to have us do (from eating all week with chopsticks to eating live octopuses if memory serves). I think that I complained more about your real wish to see me drinking tea! Thankfully there was an alternative.
No travel in this challenge - so no risk of foreign fare.
I have now posted a scoresheet thread - so we can all go in and make our single scoresheet posting there (which we edit every time we want to report another week or bring things up to date).
I have now created a chat thread and posted the week 1 nutritional bonus information in both the chat thread and the scoresheet thread. Now you have every opportunity to read it before preparing your shopping lists.
Hello everyone. I hope you are as ready as I am to do this. I can see most ofyou have already lost some weight and I have a lot to learn from you. I've done it before and I know I can do it better this time. I am looking forward to your support and I hope I can be of support myself. These 90 pounds better start packing their bags 'cause they won't be living on me no more!
