I'm sure I'll lose at least 10 in that time frame, but I suppose childbirth is cheating.
Best of luck to you all

What's the buy in?
-10 pounds and I'm back to my "The Nose" weight.
EDIT: NEVER MIND. My reading skills are only a little better than my current climbing skills.

Any takers for the admin portion of the event? I'm out due to lack of desire and I'll be on vacation for a few weeks after the close of the event.
Administration requirements are basically just keeping track of who's in, what the weigh in's are, midpoint penalties and final coordination of payments.

I'm tipping the scales at a svelt 159 lbs right now. 149 lbs wouldn't look right. Though i'll probably drop 2 or 3 pounds over the next month while i'm do an 80% raw superfoods blast.
Good luck chubbies!

Don't tell me that all the tubbies are out climbing this weekend and haven't seen this post. All we're left with is fit dudes/dudettes reading the weekend edition of the taco?

Yeah, Nature, you not only looked svelte out at the JTree but the tan is great ! Nah, not a cougar here jess Nature's social consultant, right Guy ? :D
Edit: how bout not just a weight loss challenge (don't need to lose any) but include a work out, exercise goal. I really need to "muy" get legs stronger for climbing. Would fork out $ for the challenge and be glad to administrate to achieve this goal. Lynne

Ok Zip, you're it as admin. . You've been in the challenge before and know the deal.
People, if you are in and in for real, email Zip directly so he can keep track of the true "players". You can disclose your weight on Monday if you like but it's not required. Otherwise, honor system applies.
Game on.
