Romylou dont think of it as a failure, just a 'blip' - start afresh today and stay on track and it'll be back off in no time!

oops sorry 'bout that, must have been a slip of the keyboard:whistle:

Does anybody have an objection to %age lost rather than simple lbs lost, (sort of biggest loser style) : team start weight compared to team end weight? ... It would involve telling the referree (fredsnail) your individual weight at the start and end of the challenge so she can add them together to make a team weight but I guess anybody a bit shy could pm their individual weight if they prefer?

This would also mean that the teams don't need to be the same size :-)

I think that (and please correct me if am wrong) that the North team are: fellpony, beanielou, mazza and myself
(are we called the Buckfast Beauties or can you think of a better teamname?)

Is there anybody else from 'oop North that wants to join the winning team? - particularly newbies / lurkers? All welcome - the more the merrier.
Just a bit of fun and a little extra weight-loss motivation for a few weeks:D

% lost is a good idea

agree, that way we dont need the teams to be the same size.

puds I have read it twice and still don't get what you mean, do you mean the weight we started with or the weight now, the weight we would like to be, since we started or now?:D

buckfast beauties? LOL Better than the southern softies I guess :rotfl:


Had 2 people comment on my weight loss today, one being my mam, the other being the lady in the supermarket who usually sells me my smokes. Weird thing is, I feel really fat atm, my stomach is all bloated n horrible, n all my jeans feel tight on me. Even tho I've been steadily losing weight. Maybe i've just tightened my belt one notch too much :rotfl:

% lost is calculated from your weight last weigh in and the difference this weigh in, it generally means blimps like me have to loose twice as much as lighter weight girls so it fairer


in the final in BL the % lost is there start weight less there finish weight

so do you mean at the start we add up all our current weights in the team, then at the end do the same and calculate the % loss to see who wins?
simples enough i spoze

yes betty thats right :-)

Mazza - can't think of much that would give me more of a buzz than a stranger commenting on my loss... it just goes to show that youre looking good, despite feeling all fat and bloated today :-)
