Final Details:

* We will go for 8 weeks: from Monday January 4-Monday March 1st
* There will be an entry fee of $30 (pretty cheap motivation, compared with alternative weight loss options, right?)
* Money MUST be turned in by Monday, January 4th, along with your beginning weight & a “BEFORE” picture! Fun way to put a face with the name, don’t you think?! (Thanks for the idea, Lori!) I'll post those here on the blog as I get them!
* Cash or Check can be mailed to Amy Clifton. Email either of us for her address. Please email her to let her know it’s coming if you mail it.
* Paypal IS an option. Email Amy to get more information, or I'll forward it to Amy if you need. We're trying not to list too much personal info on here, anymore! :)
* If you lose 10% of your body weight you will receive 1/2 of your money back!
(ie: if your starting weight is 150 lbs., you would need to loose 15 lbs.)
* The winner takes the "pot" (the POT = # of participants x $30 – amount given back for 10% loss – prizes {about $40})
* Everyone will need to weigh in MONDAYS & report to the record keeper. (Tanya @ tanya_bingham@yahoo.com) Keep it honest! :}
* We will go off of the % of weight lost, not just pounds
* If enough people actually join in, we’ll do bi-weekly prizes valued around $10, and in the form of cash or gift cards. Are you catching on? If you win only 1 of the “prize” weekly weigh-ins and lose your 10%, you’ve about earned your money back! Stay motivated, even if you’re not in first place! On the OTHER weeks between the “prize” weigh-ins, the weigh-in winner will get to choose between weighing in a day earlier the next week, a day later the next week, or adding a 1 lb. disadvantage to someone the following week. Believe me. Any one of those 3 could make it or break it for you, depending on your strategy!
* The Prize weeks will be Week #s 1,3, 5 & 7 (Jan 11, Jan 25, Feb 8, & Feb 22).
* You are welcome to lose however you want…PLEASE no eating disorders…it takes the fun right out of it!
* If you’re interested in getting a group together for your area to weigh-in, feel free! It will help the motivation!
* If by chance the final 2 people are within a 1/2 a percentage of each other, they can split the money 30% / 70%...it actually happened for us last time!
