At this point, I hope all of you are ecstatic (to say the least) about the 12 Week Seymour (Davis, Rogers, and Graves) Weightless Challenge. I feel that it is important to lay out the details to make sure that we are all on the same page. For starters, the challenge will run a total of 12 weeks from Sunday October 9-Saturday December 31.
Since we will not be getting together anytime soon just use your own scale, but make sure to use the same scale for the entire duration of the contest. Also, if you weigh in with clothes on subtract the weight of your clothes.
Now for the motivation. Each of us need to determine a WIN gift and a LOSS consequence. The WIN gifts will be awarded to the individual with the highest % loss and must be equivalent to $50. This gift does not need to be money. For example, you may choose $50 of service, a home-made gift, or a crisp $50 bill. Get creative, but try to have these gifts be meaningful. We obviously wont know who will be the winner so plan on making this gift non-specific.
The LOSS consequence will be something that you will dread if you do not reach a 10% reduction in body weight (if you weigh 300lbs you will need to lose 30 lbs to make a 10% dent in your body weight). The final LOSS consequences will be carried out at final weigh-in on December 31 (New Years Eve) at Mom/Dad's house 9pm.
Ideally, your LOSS consequence can be carried out like a death sentence (swiftly and publicly), but that may not be what motivates you. Decide on something that you would dread. Remember that if you meet your 10% loss you do not need to carry out your LOSS consequence you can just be a by-stander and laugh at those less fortunate, but everyone will need to come prepared with a WIN gift for the overall winner.
