Default March Challenge at work

I just thought I would let everyone know that I setup a March Diet Challenge where I work since there are alot of people that are on this diet or other diets. The winner will win two movie passes paid by the other people. I am really excited about this and I will have to update this at the end of the month.

Sounds like fun Jeff but I am retired and non-competitive but you did give me a very good idea. Going to a show sounds like a good idea. Guess I will set a mini goal for march and give myself a treat with movie tickets for my husband and myself. Look forward to hearing yr results from yr work!!

How do you determine who wins? Most weight lost, stuck to plan the most?

neat idea! I would like to do this at my work too.

The person who loses the most weight by the end of the month wins. I dont plan on this being a competitive thing but more of a motivational thing. I am really excited about this and everyone that I have talked to is just as excited.

Are the leaders on low carb? I'll bet they are, yes? This sounds like fun since it's all in good spirits. Plus, the reward isn't cookies. Good luck with your challenge!

9 of the 15 are on Atkins. 8 of us lost 17.5 and 1 person gained 2 lbs. The other 6 lost 10. The leader with 5 is just eating 1/2 what she ate before and exercising. 6 of the next 7 people are on Atkins.
