General Rules:

First rule is that this should be 'tons' of fun!!

The BLFBB (Biggest Loser for Bootyfull Babes) starts with your first weigh-in on Tuesday, November 1st. You need to have someone witness your weigh-in (just because) and the family pet does not count! Witnesses can be a co-worker, someone at the gymn, a friend, husband, your kids (I don't recommend the last option unless you want the entire classroom using your weight in their story problems during math class)! Once you weigh in, open the fancy little spreadsheet that Carolyn attached as a link for us and put something in that column saying that you weighed in (a simple yes is fine and you do NOT need to put your actual weight in unless you really want to)!

The challenge runs 15 weeks with final weigh in on Tuesday, February 14th (woohoo Valentines Day!!). Pick a scale and stay with it (at least for the Start and Finish weigh-ins)!! If you have a scale that you step on 5 times and get 5 different numbers, it's time for a new scale!! I highly recommend a gym, weight watchers, the doctor, work whatever......I'm not the scale police.

During the challenge, you need to 'check in' every 3 weeks with the total lbs you've lost. I know that some of you are in Weight Watchers and your weigh-in day may not be Tuesday. The only dates that everyone must weigh-in on are the Start and Finish. I don't care if you weigh in on Wed. November 23rd instead of Tues November 22nd....just check in every 3 weeks and let us know how you're doing!! We are here to support each other!!! The person who loses the highest percentage of weight wins the challenge. For you non-mathematicians, you take the total weight lost divided by your starting weight to get that percentage. Two people will win money at the end - 2nd place gets their money back and 1st place gets the rest! The person in last place has to do something, so post your ideas and we'll take a vote for the last place finisher!

Kudos to Carolyn for making such a fun blog for all of us to go to! Share your tricks and treats, recipes, workout ideas, healthy craving ideas, issues, whatever....we are here for each other and hopefully in the end we all get to fit in our skinny jeans (or at least our FAT jeans will be baggy)!
