Biggest Loser Update
My Biggest Loser result after two weeks: a loss of 1.75% in body weight. For some reason, I feel it's important to go out that many decimals. Maybe because it looks like a bigger number.
The team we challenged declined our wager. Apparently, that left Sugar Daddy with too much money because he proposed a few new wagers to keep us motivated.
1. Each of our four team members is putting $25 in every month. The person who loses the biggest percentage in that month gets the $100 in the pot.
2. He and T have a head-to-head wager of $250 payable to the biggest percentage loser at 6 months.
3. He and Dave have a head-to-head wager of $100 payable to the biggest percentage loser at 6 months.
I'm going to be motivated enough by the whole team thing and potential $75 profit each month. But, I think the guys need that extra testosteroney challenge. Whomever wins the big bets is never going to let the other guy forget it. That should increase our total team loss.
Fun stuff!
Lots of folks in the company are still chatting about the contest. One woman in Customer Service has lost 10 ½ pounds on Weight Watchers. Another has lost 9 on the lemonade/maple syrup/cayenne pepper cleanse. That doesn't sound appealing at all nor does it seem like a good long-term strategy.
