    Ok we have 5 members of Buckfast Beauties (North) and 6 members of Vix's Victors (South) - both team names are temporary until agreed by all members of the team.

    In no particular order the teams are:
    Buckfast Beauties:
    Beanielou
    Fellpony
    Puddings
    Mazza111
    romylou

    Vix's Victors
    Bex2002
    Eric Pisch
    Pinkie B
    vixarooni
    Victory
    BettyB

    On Wednesday 22 September please let me know your current weight either by private message or posting on the board before 11.30pm. If you are unable to do so by Wednesday night please let me know via pm as soon as possible afterwards so we have an accurate starting weight for everyone.

    I will not disclose anyone's weight to anyone.

    The team challenge will run for 4 weeks from 22 September until 20 October.

    Weekly team % losses will be shown on the chart every week.

    If the number of members in the teams are uneven it won't matter as it will be a team % based on total weight of the teams.

    Further rules may be made if I need to - I declare this contest open - let's keep it friendly and have some fun, but may the best team win.

    A few years ago Blackburn council launched a scheme where there's free swimming and free gym membership for everybody who lives or works in the borough. Loads of people I know have been going for ages but I've never taken them up on the offer. Yesterday I went into town to get myself a membership card and was told that I can have a card but in a few weeks time the whole scheme is coming to an end, no more funding. Just my luck!

    Me me - I'd like to be in the North South game too please. I was born and bred in Leeds (Yorkshire - Up NORTH!) but i live in London now. My heart is still a bit more northern than southern though, so I would like to be in with the Buckfast Beauties :)

    Lost another 2lbs this week (actually in 6 days as I sometimes weigh in on Tues and sometimes Wed depending on the week!). Happy with that. I have been watching series 6 of BL on my ipod on the tube - I watched earlier seasons last time I was on a weight loss journey and I am so happy to be reunited with it again. I am so obsessed!!! At least I have a few more seasons to get through.

    My dad is yorkshirian... so im not totally against the north. I feel quite at home whenever im in york or whatever.

    Im quite excited by the challenge!
  • Since I've started weighing myself after all these years, I'd like to join in the North/South challenge please!

    Only trouble is, I'm from the North but have been in London for 6 and a half years now. Which side should I choose?!
