Summer Solstice Fitness Challenge Starts 3/7/08. SIGN UPS

My goal is to be more fit for Summer. I want to be able to wear a tank top or a bathing suit and NOT feel self conscious for once. The Summer Solstice is June 21st. I am making a challenge that runs from March 7th to June 21st- The summer solstice. It is going to be a 16 week challenge.

People will be voted off every week- Biggest Loser style. This challenge is going to be based upon percentage of weight loss. Every week I will total up how much weight each team member has lost, and what the total team percentage is. Each week the teams start fresh. But the teams with the lowest percentages will lose a member of their team. The member with the lowest OVERALL percentage of weight loss is the one that will be eliminated. Each team will also have a "winner" for the week... the member of each team with the HIGHEST percentage of weight loss that week. That person will not be able to be eliminated. Towards the end of the challenge- it will go into an individual phase. From there, the person with the lowest total weight loss percentage will be eliminated each week.

There will be 3 winners. A first, second, and third prize winner. They will each receive a corresponding ribbon or metal (whichever I find and like best.)

Sign up if you are interested. SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED

Is this challenge going to be a weight loss challenge? I notice you call it a "fitness" challenge. What I mean is will points be assessed based on weight loss or physical improvement; If the latter how will this be quantified?

It is going to be a weight loss challenge. Points will come from weight loss, and weekly bonuses. Sorry if I used the wrong word. I didn't mean to mislead. I liked the way it sounded.

Oh no worries. I wasn't criticizing your use of the word or anything, haha. This is a weight loss forum after all. I just wanted to know if I would get eliminated in the first round. Yes, apparently.

But best wishes to all of ya.

I'm in....still a proponent of percentage of weight loss instead of pounds since this is more based on weight loss and not bonus points
