Changes (by Angie for Jim)

Ok, Jim just called me and asked me to post this for him (I'll try to remember what all he told me)...

He's had 3 or more people who've decided to play our version of The Biggest Loser. Now to make it to where everyone can play, we'll have to postpone the posting till after everyone weighs in this coming Sunday. "If" this poses a problem with anyone,please email me or Jim and we'll make this just a fair as possible. He was afraid that someone (this week) would have a good initial weight loss and wouldn't get credit for it. My thoughts are that if that's the case, this Sunday post the weight from this past Sunday and then next, next Sunday you'll really throw a whammy up there...clear as mud :)??!!

Anyway...as for addressing my embarrassment (and a few others) of posting names with weights, Jim proposed that we all get assigned a # and only Jim (Me) and you know that number. He will let you know what your number is before the weigh in on Sunday. I know this is a LOT of blah-blah-blah about something REALLY simple, but Jim's trying to take everyone's feelings and issues into consideration (I know...WHO?? Jim??).

As for the side bet that some people are doing ($50 each and the highest % lost of those in the pot wins it all), that is purely optional. I'm not doing it, but Jim is. So just let Jim know if you're in the pot or not and also send him (or me) your weight on Sunday and let the game begin.

Sheww...I think that's all....

Anybody else

Let me know what you think about this. I have decided to keep the women's weight a secret, just post the percentage of weight that they have lost instead. I think everyone will be honest, and a few have expressed that their weights made public would make them uncomfortable. That's not what I want to do, so just be honest, because there is no prise, and I have no problem with that. Does this pose a problem for anyone else? Weights can be e-mailed to me at jim-berryman@excite.com, or to Angie, and you all have her e-mail. Let's Just all try to get them in on Sunday, or early Monday. I don't guess I mentioned it, but we will be going by percentage of your total weight that is lost, it is the only way that is fair for both men and women.

Let me know,

Jim

P.S. I have Me, Angie, Beth, Kim, Bobby, Chanda, and am waiting on Billy and Barbara, anyone else in? I will post as soon as I have everyone.
