ellabo - My shop is 3 blocks from the 24hr on Vineyard. The one right next to Zendejas right? Margartas after the treadmill...

that is the one my friend. do you happen to work by superior off road?

Could I jump in on an informal basis?

I was in on the secret weight loss threads a few years back, and went from 230 down to 170 lbs in 4 months….not even sure where I am now. BUT it isn’t 170 any longer…been eating like a pig.

Not looking for money or formalities, but would like to play along.

It's coming down to a little more than a month away.

Yes Dave, you are miss-understanding....verified weight means that's the weight you start with. The whole intention of the verified weight is to keep guess'timates our of the picture entirely.

The holidays are sneaking up on us like a jr-high boner. I know someone is going to wake up from their tryptophan coma 2 weeks after the contest has started. It's a busy time of year for people to get together and verify weight.

Here is what I propose so hear me out. Anyone can weigh-in from now until the 1st of January. You might get a head start on others but with Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years....partying like it's 1999, alcohol, mountains of good food right around the corner....you keep up your weight loss contest cause nobody will want to be around you Scrooge.

All in favor?

I will have badburn confurn my wieght now, because Im already down to 268 and expect to loose a bunch more!

AYE!

I'll weigh in with BarryMac in the next couple days.. LOL Truthfully even with the hollidays I think I'll lose weight. I've been eating at every grease pit known to man for the last month or so.

I ate like ass for a week before the start of the last contest and gained almost 5 in 5 days. I couldn't imagine not working....holidays and rows of food for feasting...geezus...i would have lost 90lbs just cause I would have gained 50lbs extra before the start. I just hope nobody goes into cardiac during their "prep"....this could get real ugly.

Cig I will be weighing in at the bakery again if that's ok.
