PoP Biggest Loser

We tried this back at the Wizard boards and while I don't know how well everyone who participated kept it up, it certainly started with enthusiasm and fervor. I know there are at least a couple other people who are working on losing weight/strengthening muscle and if enough people are interested, we could start it back up.

If I remember things correctly, the way we did it before was after enough people had decided to "sign up", we separated into teams, people set personal goals, and then we updated our progress on a week to week basis. You don't have to give specific numbers or anything, as some people prefer confidentiality, it's more about friendly competition, giving each other advice, and keeping each other motivated and accountable.

Would anyone else be interested?

I'm up for it,

I would be, but at this point I've lost all the weight I want to and am just working on losing fat, so my weight is gonna be going up and down.

I'm up for it. Being jobless, I gained 12 kabillion pounds.

I'd sign up but with my lifting my numbers will probably be going up not down.

I'm in, but my wife's pregnant so I'll probably be eating a bunch of junk food.

I'm in.

oh this would help me lose those pesky 10 pounds or what not

In!

I guess I could be in, I'll just track inches instead of weight.

I just got P90X and my wife and I plan on starting it next Monday. So really I'm looking at losing some fat and gaining muscle/tone. Don't know how well I'd fit in to this but I'm willing to participate.

Pretty sure my wife will be in also. I think she's gonna start her account on here tonight. Let the fun begin...

Good luck with P90X. My brother, sister, and brother in law are all doing that. It's really a program aimed at people who are already in good shape, as the exercises are very intense and there is no "ramp-up" stage. You just start.

i think i has time for some activities - might motivate me - yeah im in

I loveeeeeeeeeeee P90x! I just started it again last week. im sticking to it this time.. its hard ><

Yeah it is, and the dude with one leg in P90X?

I definitely need to do this. You think after the wife had the baby I'd stop eating. Nope, im eating more.


shit, im starting to look pregnant.

The p90X ab work out is like being murdered for 5 minutes.

I'm in. As of right now I'm a week long stomach flu away from my goal weight...

I've heard it's really tough. I'm not in terrible shape but I think it's gonna kick my ass regardless. I know it's gonna kill my wife.

I'm ready...well...mentally. As of Monday I'm gonna see exactly how much punishment I can take. I'm sticking to it though...I'm gonna be ripped!

yeah I really just need to lose like 15 pounds to be at my goal weight, but having support is what really helps!

Eric Stolhanske only has one leg!?

I know. I wasn't sure which shocked me more. That he was on the exercise dvd or that he was missing a leg...well, half a leg, not sure if he has a knee or if it's above the joint.

Well I learned something new

Hell, I've got at least 30.

Also, I need to do more with my ab workout, because my crunch variations that I've been doing are feeling stale. Anyone got anything good for that?

I'll send you something when I get home

Damn! He's got it down, then. It's completely unnoticeable, even in Slammin' Salmon, which is barely a year old.

I'll have to rewatch Club Dread, see if he wears shorts.
