when is the latest I could commit to joining and sending in my money? I really want to join but I'm not 100% sure my summer job will kick in and I won't know until the middle of next week.
Jessicah! I need a commitment and money by June 5th. I have never put a cap on the comps before though.. so as SOON as you know you want to do it let me know so I can put you on the list. In the past the comps have got way too big so this time 25 is it! The nice thing is.. with 25 people.. that gives us $1250 in prize money for a 4 month comp! :)
I am in. Need to be in better shape for the wedding. I will send you some paypal money. Super stoked.
Blah... I need another comp. I'm in.
OH YEAH!!! IM PUMPED!!! This time I KNOW I won't get pregnant! haha. So I know it said something about detox shakes but are we allowed protein shakes?
Protein shakes are okay... as long as you are not using them to REPLACE MEALS! This means you could have a protein shake with an apple or something as a SNACK.. but not multiple meals being replaced by protein shakes. So if you are eating 5 meals a day.. one could be a shake! Does that make sense?
yes complete sense! i have them as a snack with fruit in it. more of an after workout snack.
ok, i'm so in!!
Ok if I can come up with the cash, Im in!
I'm 99% sure I'm in. I could use the motivation. I have a trip to Japan scheduled in October, and I want to be thin for it.
HOLY SHIT I"M IN!!!!!!!! YAY!!!! Although I have to admit i'm going to cry a little when I have to send my current weight in. But, OH WELL... Let's DO THIS THING! LOL
oh... FYI: This is Mindy! Did'nt realize i was logged in under Jack.
thinking.......................um okay I'm in. I've lost motivation and gained back alot, most of what I lost last year. SO I've been not wanting to join due to humiliation. But It worked before and I'll give it a go again. I'll send the money Monday-ish, aka as soon as the paycheck hits the bank.
YAY BRANDY!! Bonnie and Neena are doing it too! :) PS.. I've gained 20 lbs since I moved back to Utah. Life happens.. lets kick some butt! :)
I wanna play too! I'm in! will send an email so I can get the details of how to send my money :)
Funny thing I haven't looked at any of this blog stuff for a whole year, and then I saw this. Is there still any room for another to join? Thinking about it.....
