THE PAIN OF DISCIPLINE OR THE PAIN OF REGRET, YOU CHOOSE!

Main Purpose of this blog!

This blog is for you! Our family and friends who need a little extra motivation when it comes to eating healthy and exercising. Most of you have seen the popular TV series The Biggest Loser and have noted the life changing events that have occured. We are going to do our own version of the biggest loser only we are calling it The Healthy Habits Challenge. If you are interested we are asking that you send 20 dollars to my cute mom Linda Brindley Chipman asap. The challenge will begin on Monday, January 10th, 2011 and goes for 8 weeks which means it will end Sunday, March 6th. The more who participate, the more money their will be in the pot. At 20 dollars each, it is going to add up fast, but all money aside we really want to use this blog as a place where we can post our progress and encourage each other with ideas of what we are doing to keep fit and healthy. Please refer to the "log in" information (on side bar) so you can post your ideas. Remember to read the rules carefully (on the side bar) as well as the Healthy Habits Contract (first post). Good Luck Everyone!

Week 7 Results

I have most of the figures in for the week. There has been 1 person who has not yet reported so I am using last weeks weight in these figures. If she reports to me a different weight, I will change these figures. For the eight week challenge we have lost a total of 441.4 pounds. Just a reminder, we need your FINAL WEIGHT by Midnight March 7, 2011 in order to qualify for prize money. No exceptions. We need your weight no later than Monday night. The winners will be posted next week along with the percentages lost. If you would like to figure your percentage, this is the formula. Take starting weight then subtract your weight now. Divide the starting weight into the total number of pounds lost. Then times by 100. This is your percent of weight lost. For instance: say your starting weight was 195 and your weight now is 180. 195 minus 180 equals 15 lbs. Divide 15 by 195 which equals .07692. Times this by 100 and your percentage is 7.692. If you would like me to figure your percentage for you for today's date, just email me westernpride@q.com
