The Biggest Loser-teams again?

[tae1218]

I would love to join too! I am ready to get serious again.

I love the Biggest Loser. I can't wait for the new season.

I'd hate to lose 2 1/2 weeks just to wait till the 20th when the show starts

Couldn't we start earlier? Then do weigh ins on a certain day like Sunday instead? Plus others here do the lose a certain amount for each month so they could do both and have it count for both.

I don't know just an idea!

Plus can we send our before pictures to someone to hold until the end of the contest--like whoever becomes team captain--That way I'm not plastered all over the boards as an ad for "what happens in absence of healthy eating"--You know one of those bite you in the butt type happenings.

I know I have already started I also didn't want to lose the time. My goal is to be down to fighting weight for my trip in Jan.

I'm with Molli, let's start on 9/5/06. That's my first day back from vacation so I'll be ready to get back into business on Tuesday.

Anyone else want to start on that day?

o2bacelt -- team captain
tae1218

anyone else want to be captain?

we have 17 folks right now -- i just checked the official BL webpage and it will be airing on Wed this season. I propose we start this Wednesday with everyone reporting in an official weigh in (PM to captain for confidentiality) and run through the season with the show. I assume we go be percentages of weight loss to keep in fair. Also this season is divded someone by states, maybe we can divide in some fashion relating to our locations?

GO TEAM!!

I'd like to be a team captain, but I guess it depends on where the other captain is located. We could divide by East/West or North/South? I'd be either South or East since I am in Virginia.

Yaaayyy! Biggest Loser Challenge!!!

Ugh, I just saw that o2bacelt is in nothern Virginia!!!! LOL

 

[Miandrea]

I would love to join! This sounds like so much fun!

 

[Tasha+Scott]

I am fine with starting on Wed. as well. As far as how you divide teams, I think it is a great idea to divide by region but I guess that would depend on where everyone is from. If everyone is from one region it would be kind of pointless, but I am sure that won't be a problem. I am probably going to be the only one from Mississippi anyway!

You all will just have to give me details and let me know what to do since I didn't participate last year. I am intrigued and can't wait to "play!"

 

[ohMom]

well we can be creative about dividing; can be North and South, then our team captains can be accordingly by NORTHERN VA and SOUTHERN VA I figured we'd compile a listing of where we are from and i'll sort them. why doesn't everyone PM me with their location be sorta specific, i.e. I'm from Central Ohio. Not exact cities but region and state

as for pictures -- we'll tackle that after we get settled in -- but please everyone TAKE a picture of yourself by Wednesday in either a favorite/common outfit that you wear alot now and can't wait to be too small for -- or holding up something you can't wait to be able to fit into. Take a front and side shot please. and please don't worry -- no one that is uncomfortable having their picture posted will be pushed into that. this way we'll have beginning photos to work with

i hope the Tag fairy graces us with new tags for this round! and -- does anyone want to make a clippie??

 

[njcarita]

We'll I just had my husband take pictures of me in a dress I haven't dared wear yet ( gift from MOM).
I am so pumped for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[AlreadyexcitedGrammy]

I am soooooooooooooooooooo ready for this extra weight to just be gone - I wanna be a BIG LOSER, so get me on team - PLEASE

Tomorrow was going to be my day of re-start, but I have eaten way more than I am used to this weekend - so TODAY is my restart day and yeah well the "little push" from ohMom (my DD) directing me that TODAY IS THE DAY sort of firmed it up...............

Picture, well okay - I'll get one of those taken too ~ that in itself is usually enough to get me "jump started", somehow my "mind visual" is usually a bit leaner than the actual proof

I'm off to exercise - got my mandatory H20 measured waiting for me to consume, right by my bowl of veggies as my "designated" munchies for the day Day # 1 off to a good start

 

[calena]

I would like to join too. I'm in Canada so I guess that is the north!

[daisy_77]

Is it too late to join?? I would love to be a part of this!

 

[irishbosoxfan]

I sent my pm!

I am thinking of wearing a sports bra and shorts for my picture---What I wear now is really big t-shirts so you can't tell where everything is at!

I do have a favorite pair of jeans but I can only get them up to just past my knees! So I guess I'll take one of me holding them up.

I will also take pictures of the scale at each weigh in=If my weight goes down I'll give you the pic,If it stays the same you won't get one that week!

 

[princess@heart]

and -- does anyone want to make a clippie??

I am going to see if I can get a fellow DISser who is good at it to make us one!

 

[jayna22]

I'm ready to start Wednesday! I'm in Illinois-so I don't know if that makes me North or South. As far as the picture goes, I'll see what I can do.
Thanks!

Got DH to take a couple of pics in my exercise clothes (a little big on me now, after already losing some, but too cheap to replace in hopes of needing an even smaller size!)
This part I'm gonna need a bit of help with. How do you send/post pics?

 

[MinnieMouseMom]

Hi everyone!

Wednesday would be good for me as well!
