Contest Info and Rules
There have been several interested in doing a Biggest Loser contest like the one I participated in. Here are the rules below. Hopefully, this will answer any questions. If you need to weigh in before Saturday, you must weigh in the final week at approx. the same time. For example, if you need to start on Friday evening, then your final weigh in will need to take place on a Friday evening. This should make it as fair as possible for the final percentage lost.
1. $55.00 entrance fee to be collected at first weigh in. $50 towards final prize winnings, $5 to go toward weekly challenge prizes.
2. Wear similar clothing for each weigh in, preferably shorts and t-shirt, exercise clothing etc. No shoes
3. Weigh- ins are Saturday mornings 8:30 - 9:30 a.m.
4. Percent of weight loss determines winner, not most pounds lost
5. 50% of the collected entry fees goes to 1st place winner, 30% to 2nd Place and 15% to 3rd Place. There will be a drawing at the end of 12 weeks for one Participation Prize for all who have stayed committed and weighed in at all weigh- in's with the exception of the two allowed. This will be 5% of the prize money (This could be subject to change depending on the number of contestants)
6. Participants can miss two weig -ins, but not consecutively and still be included in weigh- in.
7. Before pictures will be taken, but not posted on blog. This will help you to see your progress.
8. All weights will be kept confidential, however percentages will be posted weekly on blog.
9. NO HCG, or other drastic means to accomplish weight loss. This has to be a diet and exercise game.
10. Contest begins - January 7, 2012
11. Contest ends - Mar 31, 2012
More to come...so stay tuned. Remember you could be the biggest loser.
