Good job everyone, keep up the good work! Many of you are still loosing weight or staying the same, so at least no one is gaining!!! I'll try and be more motivating this month.
There is a lot more people that haven't paid, so dont forget it's the pot money.

FEB. 7TH WEIGH-INS

We had the wiegh in yesterday and overall everyone is doing well, there are a few that are doing excellent, some that are doing bad, and some that refused to weigh in. Here is a question for everyone, Should I penalize the ones that refuse to weigh in? Let me know what u guys think.
As soon as I'm done weighing in everyone I will print out and post everyones percentages, so that everyone can see where they stand in order to win the 1500$$$. Dont forget everyone still needs to pay the 5$ fee, with or without the weigh in.
Congratulations to everyone that has lost weight, keep it up!!
Remember stick to your plan, work hard, be dedicated, be fit!!!
