    [QUOTE]OKAY! I started the competition, so sign up on thintopia. We're going for 8 weeks.  The Competition Name is NEY Get Fit Competition... ...and the password is:  loveyourself No joke.  We started today, so go ahead and weigh in! (If you didn't weigh in this morning, I think it's fine to fudge and start tomorrow).

    I weighed myself last night so I'm just going to use that number. I'm so excited for this! This will keep me motivated through the holidays!

    Can I invite someone off the board to be a part of this?  My mom's been struggling with losing weight for a while now, and maybe this would help.  Or would you guys feel weird about that?

    I like the idea of making my own reward, but I'm not sure what I want. I'll have to think about this some more.

    I'm considering doing this...but not talking about food or exercise at all during the holidays (except how AWESOME the food is). Instead- I'll add tips on how to love oneself throughout this competition. K? :)

    Self Compassion FTW!

    Ughhhhh I really don't want to weigh myself today.  I don't want to know exactly how much I hurt myself last week.

    Thanks a lot for making me face reality, guys.

    Lunar -- I understand where you're coming from but you can still enjoy the holidays without over-indulging. I don't think paying attention to what (and maybe more importantly: how much) you're eating is necessarily a bad thing.

    Maybe use that number as motivation and beat it down instead of it beating you down. And, after the 8 weeks, that number won't be the same either, so tell it to enjoy it's stay, because it's not lasting long!

    Too cheesy? lol. I tried. I use tricks like this to get myself motivated, lol.

    <div>Haha, yes.  In a few minutes when I get on the scale, I'm going to give that number a stern talking-to.  Thanks for the suggestion!</div>

    [QUOTE]I signed up! Question -- should our goal be our OVERALL goal? Like, what I want my final weight to be? Or our goal for at the end of 8 weeks.
    Posted by LivLeighton[/QUOTE]

    I made mine for the 8 weeks. I figure we may end up doing this challenge again after the holidays, so I'll make a new goal weight for that then too. I definitely can't get to my goal weight in 8 weeks, so it's easier to set the number to something that is within reach. That's what works for me anyway. You can do it however you'd like! : )

    I don't understand what it's showing for my "goal" on the team page.  It says -7.41, but based on the weights I entered for my starting and goal weights, I need to lose 9.  Is that wrong or am I misunderstanding something?

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: S/O Biggest Loser NEY Edition : Elle, it's in percentage of loss, not lbs. Does that make sense? Also, I'm putting my overall weight loss goal because I have NO idea what my body might be capable of in just 8 weeks.

    Are we weighing in on Fridays? I saw Liv say something about that, and that's what I already do..so perfect!

    I bought FI the Kinect for Xbox for Christmas. He wanted something we could do together around the house and somehow I landed on that. I wonder if the dance games or workout games will be effective. Anyone have Kinect?

    Actually, I think we're going to weigh in Mondays with the logic that some of us (me for example, lol) do worse on the weekends, so it's motivation to keep us on track instead of eating crap on the weekends.

    I wish I had a Wii to try that Just Dance thing everyone has been talking about. That sounds like fun!

    [QUOTE]I signed up.  I only want to lose like 10 pounds, but I've been struggling with this for a loooong time.  If I lose 6 or 7 in 8 weeks, I'll be really happy.  
    Posted by yaga13[/QUOTE]

    I think it'll still be fun even if you don't have as much to lose and it's based on fat percentage, rather than straight pounds, so even if you have less to lose, you could still win! And yeah, even 6 pounds out of your 10 you want to lose will be great!! : )
