Happy Weigh-In Wednesday everyone!!  How are all of our lovely teams doing? Can you believe how quickly time flies?  Week #1 is over and done.  So, how did you do?  You know we want to know!

Are you having fun with your teams?  Are you getting to know each other?  I hope so!!  This is why we are doing this Biggest Loser style.  We want you to get to know your brothers and sisters and help and support each other along the way in this challenge!!

Now. Go visit your hateful bestest friend in the whole wide world, Mr. Scales.  If he’s mean to you, smack him.  (But I know he won’t be!) After you weigh-in, go blog about your weigh-in, then come back here and leave us a comment with a permalink to your post!  If you don’t blog, no problem, just leave a comment with you results and thoughts! Also, and this is very important:  remember to email your team captains with your weigh-in results for the week.

TEAM CAPTAINS:  Please make sure to email Christy at christy@shrinkingjeans.net with your team’s results no later than first thing Thursday morning!  The Leaderboard will be up on Thursday, and you want to see how your team did, don’t you?!  Sure you do!

Did you see the prizes for this week?  We have two of them…go check them out here!  All you have to do to enter to win is step on your friend, Mr. Scales and leaves us your comment as mentioned above before 11:59 p.m. Pacific time tomorrow.  Winners will be randomly chosen and announced tomorrow!  Good luck!

Oh, and before I forget, did you see??  We’re jumping rope!!  Go check it out! Can you jump rope for 10 minutes without stopping?  How about 20?  Come on, give it a try!  I dare you!!

Are you subscribed to us?

And while you’re at it be sure to follow us on Twitter!

Now, go on, weigh-in, let us and your team captain know, support your other sisters and your brothers, chat it up with your teams, jump rope, and have a great Wednesday!!

About april: I'm a brand new cyclist! In just a few short months, the sport has reminded me that it's all about the journey, and I need to enjoy the ride. I live with my two dogs and two birds, and love to spoil my nephew. Oh yeah, and I'm 32. View author profile.

  • http://lifewiththerostens.blogspot.com/ Megan

    I am only down .2 this week:( I totally suck. I think I would have had a nice loss, but then we went out of town for the weekend. The eating out just kills me. I enter a restaraunt & I lose all willpower & I order the worst crap on the menu. Seriously, if I am having wings do I really NEED onion rings too? Ugh.

    I am having a crazy day so I don't know if I will get around to blogging today.

    Awesome job, Stesha!! Purple Power is BRINGIN' IT!!!! Keep up the great work!

  • TChapm99

    Ok…I am down a total of 8 pounds this week BUT I had gallbladder surgery last Thursday and have not been able to keep anything other than broth or jello down since then. Technically I lost the weight but it isn't exactly a diet I would recommend to anyone. I am also not totally clear as to what team I am on because there is another Tara with another last initial but the Tara C. (which I think is me) was spelled Tera C. so I don't know and I have been too out of the loop lately to get online much. GO WHATEVER TEAM I AM ON!

  • JenniferM

    I still don’t know if I’m on a team or not. but I’m trying anyways! Been working out almost everyday for close to 2 weeks and haven’t lost a thing. I’ll keep plugging away and hopefully something will move in a positive direction

  • spbray

    Not sure if I'm on a team or not. Still plugging away though. Been working out steadily for almost 2 weeks and no change in weight. Resolved to keep pushing through and hope the scale moves soon!

  • http://cristinasfitnessblog.blogspot.com/ Cristina

    I was up 3.4lbs. I'm at 182. I'm not surprised though…I've been out of town since last Friday, just got back home tonight. I had a wedding over the weekend in Austin, TX and then we headed to Sea World, so, I did a lot of snacking on stuff I don't usually have. Back on track now that I'm home and next week will be awesome!
