UnderCover February 15, 2008 Share UnderCover Member February 15, 2008 oh snap, I started in October, I am down from 200 to 181, I only have 6 more lbs to my target. Wish you would have come up with this great plan 5 months ago it would have gotten me down to my target weight soooooo much faster. I doubt nobody wants someone on their team that only needs to loose 6 lbs. UnderCover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soul .gc February 15, 2008 Share soul .gc Member February 15, 2008 Too late to join? I will jump in if it is not too late - plus I will toss an extra $20 in the pot. Height - 5'11" Weight - 230 Desired Weight - 180 Last year I did the Body For Life program by myself and went from 279 to 214, then golf season started and the workouts stopped, while the beer drinking started. I put back on 16 pounds and need to get rid of it - my 20-year reunion is coming up this August!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty February 15, 2008 Author Share Fatty GC Founder February 15, 2008 Players: Geek - 201 / 180 / 21 Fat - 209 / 180 / 29 SJ - ? / ? / ~40 Playaa - 275 / 225 / 50 Soul - 230 / 180 / 50 Shaft - 260 / 180 / 80 Bub Mini Investors: Clueless (20) ScubaDan (20) Typefrag (100) Dingy (20) Mohawk (50 to charity) Soul (extra 10 to pool) That's 8! I also missed Scuba's investment! Thanks, SD! Let's go ahead and take our initial weights today and BEGIN!!!! I weighed in this morning at 209. My eventual goal is 180. (the ultimate goal will only be used to help create teams....loss % will be based on current weight) If you didn't post your info somewhere above, please do so today. Also, get your pictures taken this weekend (if you're doing pictures). Btw, I'm going to move this thread to the Health/Fitness forum down below at some point..... Please avoid doing any padding of your initial weights, although doing so would only help you initially....but again, as we're all long-time friends, this is on the honor system....but remember, fantastic weight loss will have to be backed up by photos! Please take a front and profile view if you're gonna go for the prize! -Let's stick to whole numbers....round up if you have a scale that goes to halves.....or round to the closest if you have some crazy scale that goes into even more detail.... YOU CAN STILL GET IN IF YOU WANT......BUT IT NEEDS TO BE TODAY!!! I'm excited to get started...and for me it starts NOW! Lunch today will be done....well, will be done less!

benjester February 15, 2008 Share benjester Member February 15, 2008 (edited) I wish I had the knowledge and motivation at this point... I just don't. I guess not understanding what weights to lift. and what exercises to do and what days to do them on is where I really just lose motivation. Seriously... there are so many options and routes, I just don't know which to follow... so I haven't followed any... I need to lose some pounds, and put on some muscle too!! My hat is off to you guys!! Edited February 15, 2008 by benjester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking about taking some of the investment and splitting it amongst the winning team to make the team thing a bit more rewarding.....but of course the winner will still get a nice chunk.Players / investors: any thoughts on this? For example, right now we have $170 pledged. We could, as it stands, take 80 of that and give each winning player 20....meaning they get 30 total...and then the winner 90...meaning he would get 120 total... This changes with more pledges and/or players that come in over the next day. You guys ok with something like this? If you really don't care and just want to get to business, I'll appreciate your trust in managing the details. I don't want to make the focus the cash......I want the focus to be encouragement....I want everyone who starts to stick it out for 15 weeks....all the way! PS. 2 consecutive no-shows (not posting, weighing in, etc) will mean yer out....hope we don't have that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
