The Hot Pink Diamondz are on FIRE!

(edited by RobinM)

Ain't no roster or rules gonna save you now!

I'm sorry..I so couldn't help it. I have to pick on you guys to get my game face on. Don't hate me because you know I'm gonna win.

We shall see my pretty!!
nb

Oh brother! You guys are a riot!

I am ready to go.....Can't "weight" to lose more I have been in a stall for a few weeks now...maybe I ought to have a few more carbs this weekend? Maybe that will get me losing again? do you think? I am not good at graphics but have been trying to work on a couple....Cathi

Hey you guys see all that smoke....

Thats what us Aces leave behind for you! Eat my smoke!

MUA HA HA HA HA!!!

It looks like there are at least 3 people interested in starting another team. I think they have a good chance of getting one together before Monday!

Cathi, I love those pink diamondz!

so there are 3 groups of biggest losers now?
Just want to make sure I understand
sandi

Hi Sandi, yes there are currently 3 teams and possibly a 4th team in progress. We will compete against the other teams to see which team is the BIGGEST LOSER.

Of course, we already know who that will be and who it won't be! The HOT PINK DIAMONDZ will win the BIGGEST LOSER CHALLENGE.

TEAL TAZMANIAN DEVILS & SMOKIN' ACES will not be the Biggest Loser . . . . altho they will be losers!

Pink Diamondz Rule..............Teal Tazmanian Devils & Smokin' Aces drool!

Oh it's on like donkey kong, aces!!!

Look at yall sitting over here with your little pink shiny diamonds...yall are gonna be looking at our shiny hinies when we leave yall behind!

Good Morning Hot Pink Diamondz,

Let me know if you have any last minute questions between now and Monday morning!

Also we have 3 cheerleaders for our team so far! janiebug, PatTee, and luvdogs!

There are 6 people signed up for Team # 4 so it looks like there will be 4 teams competing. No worries tho because we know which team is going to be The Biggest Loser, don't we ladies? The HOT PINK DIAMONDZ! Let those other teams boast and brag now ; cause later on they'll be brushing themselves off as we leave them behind in our dust!

Robin, are we supposed to send the information to you as a private message/email or are we posting that information on this site or where?? I may be a little lost, but not sure if this is the official location for just info and we post other info at another link...
Please advise...
nb

Hi nb,

This is the official location for everything! You can post it here, or send an email or PM. I will set up a spreadsheet to track everything and then we can go from there.

P.S. I noticed a little while ago that Glittergal was the newest member at Livin' La Vida Low Carb! I sent her an email.

Talk to you soon,
Robin

Are we going to have an exercise program involved? like walking or whatever so many times per week? or just each doing individually what we want?

Hi Cathi,

I think that as a team we should decide what we want to do. Do we want to pledge XX minutes each week for exercising? Do we just want to post exercise minutes daily/weekly? Or ???

I would like to pledge exercise minutes because that will help keep me accountable. Well that and wanting to win this challenge! (I LOVE to compete! As long as I can have fun doing it!)

Note to Everyone: Of course we want to win . . . . but not at any expense. I would like our team to post the following each day (at their discretion):

Calories (Fat, Protein, & Carbs also if you want)
Exercise Minutes

I would not advise anyone to go below 1200 (at the very minimum) to try to lose weight as it is not healthy and not worth the effects it could have on one's health.

Please let me know if there is anything else you would like to see posted each day or if you prefer not to post calories and exercise minutes each day let me know that also.

Robin

I think I need to be held accountable in order for me to stay exercising as well. I think 30 minutes every other day is what I will plan on doing. I know I will get more if the weather is nice because I am always outside doing something but need to start preparing myself for the winter months.
speaking of calories...I probably should go eat something now...I have spaced it off today...I have a routine during the week to remind me to eat but on weekends I sometimes forget to take the time. I think a calorie posting will probably be benifical to me as well..I am up for whatever everyone wants to do.

Just checking in! I am excited about your challenge. I know the Pink Diamondz are going to ROCK THE HOUSE!

GO HOT PINK DIAMONDZ!

Janie,

Thank you for stopping by! I love your PINK bear cheerleader! We are really excited that you are going to be our cheerleader!

Yes we are going to ROCK THE HOUSE! And as soon as those other teams figure that out things will be good!

Hey Hot Pink Diamondz! Just checking to see that you are all still on board and committed to the 8 week challenge?? Please let me know asap if anything has changed. We want to make sure we have 10 members participating . . . . you know how those Smokin' Aces are. If we don't have 10 they make try to get us disqualified because they know that is the only way they would have a chance of winning this challenge!!!!!

I am going to commit to exercise and water . . . . how much I will decide by Monday. I am also going to decide on a weight loss goal for this challenge (this is entirely optional - if you don't want to you don't have to). I want to lose another 23 lbs by 12/15 (11 weeks) - so I will probably set my weight loss goal as 16 lbs.

I am looking forward to Monday!

Robin

Just had to check in and show you are wonderful new team logo that Coleen made. She works in graphics and is also working on the weekly challenge avitars that teams will be able to add to their signature bars. Good luck and remember to bundle up because the Teal Tazamanian Devils are going to blow the pink diamonds and smokin aces right out of this challenge.

Good Morning Team!

Ok If you haven't seen Patti's sticky of the 8 week challenge check it out here:
Biggest Loser Challenge Info

If you want to PM me the info Patti is asking for I will post a master list for the whole team with our stats on that thread? It would probably be easier and save thread space.
