Biggest Loser Competition at Work Our Employee Health Department started a Biggest Loser competition here at work and it is going to last for 8 weeks. Those of us that entered gave them $25.00 apiece and the winner will take 1/2 of the pot. Second and third place will each get 1/4 of the pot. We weigh in every week and have to pay a dollar if we gain weight or don't show up to weigh. Well!!!!! Out of 50 people in this competition I was #7 after the first week. After the 2nd week I came in at (are you ready for this?) # 2! We weighed in again today and I have only lost 1/2 a pound so I bet my standing goes down. I will tell ya, I figured it out and the winner is going to get over $600.! I'm going to starve myself! Keep your fingers crossed for me! Your tubby friend, Lou |
i LOVE seeing workplaces getting into this! how great!! and CONGRATS to you!!! keep it up!! |
WTG, our local newstation did a Big Loser. We did good and had a lot of fun doing it. Keep it up! |
You can do it!!!!!!! |
Remember to drink a lot of water! |
This is so cool! We are doing it too! It's really helping me b/c of the weekly weigh ins. Great job!!! :) |
Good luck to you, you can do it!!!!! We did the same thing last year at work and I WON!! I got over $500.00 I then went to NYC and had lunch at tavern on the green. Silly of me I know:cool: But had a great time. |
Well, I slipped to #3 last week but I'm not giving up! |
I'm scared to weigh in this week...I had family in town and ate so many sweets and BBQ...and haven't worked out since Thursday |
I hear ya Verna! I'm the same way. I was sick over the weekend too and ate lots of bland carbohydrate-loaded food! |

I'm going to do Atkins for the last three weeks simply because I need the money! LOL. After that I will probably do Weight Watchers. I did pretty well with the point system once upon a time. Hey, thanks for the encouragement you guys! I appreciate it and Verna.....what is the last date of your competition? I'll race ya to #1! |

Our last day is the last day of April. The men and women that are at the top in our group are ahead by a lot. I'm not sure I can catch up to them, but I will try!!! :) I was on a mission to lose weight before the competition started and had already lost 4 lbs. Right now, I seem to have hit my plateau, but I can add some extra work out time. I'm running/walking 2-4 miles about 4 to 5 times a week. I'm not on any kind of diet. I just eat what I want in small portions, but I'll try to eat better these last days of the competition. |
