Rules:

Initial Weigh-in: Tuesday March 31
Final Weigh-in: Tuesday June 23
Competition Length: 12 weeks

Competition Basis: % of Weight Lost

Competition Number 1: Worst week-to-week loss is eliminated each week (along with people who miss their weigh-in). If everyone submits their weight loss each week, we will still have a few people left going into the last week. The highest weight-loss for that week would then win.

Comp. #1 Example: Someone who weighs 200 loses 2 pounds in week 1: -2/200 = -1%
Same person loses 2 pounds in week 2: -2/198 = -1.01%

Competition Number 2: Highest % of Weight Lost over the entire 12 weeks

Weekly Weigh-in Deadlines: 11:59 PM Tuesdays (Central Time)

Even if you are eliminated from competition number 1, please submit your weekly weigh-in to be eligible for competition number 2, so we can keep the standings up to date.

Weigh-in Process: Send me a private message with your weight. I will not publish weight, just percentage lost each week.

Missing a weigh-in: Each person will have 1 "I forgot" 24-hour extension. Failure to submit a weight after the extra 24 hours will result in disqualification.

Standings: Will be posted after all weights have been received, likely Wednesday evenings.
