Hurry up and join. Bet is $25.

[sake]

how do you know people who are weighing in aren't cheating?

[Deleted]

Awesome.

[meggers5]

I'm very much considering this. Who's the other player?

So we give our starting weights, then weigh in each week with a pic of our current weight?

What if no one reaches their goal?

[lintscreen]

I'm in! Now I just have to submit my photo for weigh in when I get home tonight.

[Deleted]

Does everyone in the bet see our photo?

[tigress]

That sounds so cool, I think I may give it a try.

[meggers5]

When I won (lol) will someone give me directions as to how to move $ out of paypal into a bank account or something? Or would I have to use paypal to buy something?

I'm not so technical.

No one see your photo or weight, unless you choose to share it.

[meggers5]

Will you guys share what weight you're trying to lose? Because I will if you all do.

[meggers5]

I have 10 000 questions. Does the money go to whoever loses the highest %age, or is the prize split between everyone who reached their goal?

[Deleted]

I have to lose like 7.5 lbs. god help me. Lol.

[amberlyrose]

Right now, I have to lose 5.8.
I'm on my period though, so when I weigh in on Wednesday, I'll probably be down another lb or two.

[falada45]

I'm in. I haven't weighed myself in a couple of weeks but I think I'm around 220 pounds right now so I'll need to lose 8.8 pounds.

[meggers5]

I'm in. 7.1lbs to go. We'll see about that lol.

Will I be prompted when to do everything?

I need my hand held through this.

Ok, so we'll get the initial word of the day tomorrow? Do we just log in to get it? I'm trying to decide on my airport attire. I usually weight myself in the buff, but obviously that won't work.

Once you hit 'weigh in' tomorrow, you'll get the word. I just did a bra and underwear for my last one.
Make sure to stand on the scale in your full body shot. I made that mistake and I had to re-do my photos!

Log in tomorrow and weigh in.
They'll send you daily reminders and tips.

I'm excited! Even if I don't win, it will hopefully give me motivation to get serious about getting back in shape. AND my new heart rate monitor will be here just in time!

Prepare to have your asses kicked. Muhahaha.

And..... to highlight why weight loss hasn't gone so well thus far. I hit "sign up" and then thought, "Crap! I have to start losing weight tomorrow? Better eat a brownie now!" And I did..... um.... and then another one.

Tomorrow I'm going all in!

 Me too. I'm thinking about the crap I want to eat tonight so I can get a healthy start "tomorrow." *sigh*

[Deleted]

I can't sign up until Wednesday.

I am not sharing my starting weight for all the money in the world.

[jigsy]

I'm in...you bitches are going down!


In weight that is

[Deleted]

Hey wait. Why is everyone starting now/tomorrow? I thought it starts June 6th? Am I misunderstanding something?

[meggers5]

I'm kind of super excited about this. Never mind losing weight for health and appearance reasons. There's money on the line now!

you can early weigh in tomorrow.

[googly]

Would it be creepy if a dirty lurker joined? Might be the motivation I need to lose some weight and start posting more!

[notsocreepylurker]

Hmmmmm I already joined blogilates ..... so I'd have to put in another $25 for this one?

I'm not really particular, but I'm not sure how everyone else feels.

I don't mind. Just don't cheat 

[notsocreepylurker]

I joined - hope that's OK. I won't cheat - promise!

Anyone else here who joined very very overweight like me?
