  • Weigh? No Way! Challenge #1 ~ A Board Wide Challenge

    THERE ARE SEVERAL NO WEIGH CHALLENGES THAT ARE GOING ON AT THE PRESENT TIME. IT IS A REALITY THAT THE MORE THAT PARTICIPATE, THE BETTER CHANCE THERE IS TO SUCCEED IN CHALLENGES. IT IS ALSO A REALITY THAT MANY MANY MEMBERS HAVE TRADED THE CARB ADDICTION FOR A SCALE ADDICTION.

    IN A EFFORT TO GET AS MANY MEMBERS INTO ONE CHALLENGE THERE WILL BE A ONE TIME A YEAR (we think) CHALLENGE STARTING OCTOBER 8 AND RUNNING THRU OCTOBER 21. IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY IN A CHALLENGE OF THIS TYPE, YOU CAN PARTICIPATE IN THIS ONE, ALSO. THE HOPE WOULD BE FOR AS MANY OF THE BOARD MEMBERS TO PARTICIPATE AS POSSIBLE. WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THIS BE A BOARD WIDE CHALLENGE, AS MANY AS POSSIBLE.

    THERE WILL BE NO CHECK INS. YOU WILL BE TAKEN AT YOUR WORD THAT YOU DID INDEED SUCCEED AT THE END OF THE 2 WEEKS. AT THE END OF THE CHALLENGE, THOSE THAT STAYED SCALE FREE AND SIGNED UP IN THIS THREAD, WILL BE GIVEN AN AWARD TO DISPLAY IN YOU SIGGY.

    TO "SIGN UP", JUST POST TO THIS THREAD. NO FRILLS ARE REQUIRED. A SIMPLE "I'M IN" WILL DO. BEGINNING OCTOBER 21, YOU CAN MAKE YOUR POST THAT YOU STAYED OFF THE SCALE AND COME CLAIM YOUR AWARD.

    YOU CAN HELP THIS CHALLENGE BY PLACING LINKS IN YOUR SIGNATURES AND BY TALKING IT UP. IF YOU VISIT THE SPOTLIGHT FORUM OR THE INDUCTION FORUM, YOU CAN INVITE THOSE MEMBERS TO SEEK OUT THIS THREAD.

    LET'S SEE JUST HOW MANY OF OUR 25,000 + MEMBERS CAN DO THIS AT ONE TIME.

    edited to add:
    IF IT WOULD BE HELPFUL TO CHECK IN EACH DAY AND IF THAT IS SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO, YOU MOST CERTAINLY CAN! SOME WILL, SOME WON'T.

                    EH, what the heck. 2 weeks scale free will likely be good for me.

                    FYI Richt, the link in your Announcement is truncated and doesn't work.

                          ack you are torturing me here. y'all know I love playiung on the sclaes to see how much stuff weighs and you know i love ADBB can I pretend I don't see this?????

                          But I have to ask have y'all really thought this through. all new to Atkins folk need a starting weight so nobody could join ADBB during that time and start ATkins cause they would weigh and it wouldn't be a board wide challenge and everybody who started Sept 23rd to the present can't be part of this cause they will need a day 15 scale weight number for determining their metabol;ic ressitance type to know if they should move to OWL do longer induction or read chapter 20 again. plus their estimat4d CCLL is based on the 14 day pounds lost totals too?

                              2big, yes it was thought through. i don't expect every member to sign up in this challenge. no way will 25,000 + members sign up. but, if you can and if you are able or you want to be challenge, you can. i think we will be lucky to get 50 or 60 and that certainly isn't the most of the board membership.

                              we aren't stopping people from joining adbb. not at all.

                              if someone comes in on october 12, after we start, all they have to do is join one of the other no weigh challenges that are going on. the only difference with this one we are trying to get a good number of people accountable to each other.

                              are you in?
