The Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge for losers and maintainers starts 1/1/10 on the WISH boards. Check out this handy link for details http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=34666127&postcount=1 and join here http://www.disboards.com/showpost.php?p=34801169&postcount=1

Our WISH Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge will run for fifteen weeks from Friday January 1, 2010 until Friday April 16, 2010. First weigh in will be January 8, 2010 and weigh ins will be on Friday each week after. Each week starting January 8, 2010 our weekly Biggest Losers will be recognized. Our final results will be posted the week after April 16th.

The purpose of the WISH Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge is to help you on your weight loss journey and keep us all on track this spring during the season of the Biggest Loser shows. The challenge forces you to be accountable. Each week you will report your weight to the weight keeper (LuvBaloo). She is the only person that will know your weight. Your weight will never be published for anyone to see.

Our Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge has an added component this time -- a separate team for maintainers. If you are a maintainer -- your hard work paid off -- you will part of the maintainers team. Maintainers still report their weight but are scored by whether you stayed within 2 pounds of your maintained weight number. If you stayed on track, you make the list of maintainers for the week and you still receive the benefit of all the support, accountability and encouragement a BL challenge provides. You can move between loser and maintainer status -- it's your choice.
On our Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge we encourage and support each other. We celebrate those small victories and offer advice to help each other meet the weight loss challenges we face. We get to know each other. We laugh together and we cry together. WISH Biggest Loser 9 Spring Challenge can be your weight loss support system.

Hope that you will consider joining us!

Hello Kim! To PM someone you click on "Private Messages" in the yellow box under your user name -- it will take you to your PM box and you can send and read your PMs. You will PM your weight info to LuvBaloo, our weightkeeper, every Friday starting 1/1. I added your name to our participant list. Come to our thread and say "hello!"

Sorry, it's a long post. All you need to do is PM me or post on the thread. I added your name so you are all set but do come and say "hello" on the thread.

Thanks for joining us and sorry for the confusion -- maybe I'm the one that needs some coffee!
