Week 8 is outta’ here! Make sure you weigh in using the form below - remember, you have until Wednesday to weigh in, and participation counts.

Weigh-In Form

Tracker


Quick reminder how this show works:

  • Every Friday morning (US eastern) we will post a weigh-in thread here in r/loseit. You will have until the following Wednesday to submit your weight via the form.

  • Follow the instructions on the form. It’s pretty easy. Pretty simple. Follow the instructions.

  • Your response is automatically logged on the tracker sheet. You can check it if you want, especially to make sure you typed it in correctly. The tracker doesn’t change your response. Whatever you type in the form is recorded on the tracker. If you notice that you typed something incorrectly, message a challenge admin and we can fix it.

Easy, right! Right. A few other things:

  • This challenge we are trying to run the First Official Inter-Team Challenges.

  • Since this is the first full inter-team challenge, there will be bugs. Please bear with us. If you notice massive errors, point them out so that we can fix them. If you have suggestions, let us know so that we can incorporate them. It’s probably going to be rough for this challenge while we fine-tune everything.

  • We are also running a section on mental health & how it relates to weight loss. u/EosEnthusiast will have a piece each week here for us to discuss.

ERRORS

A number of you have messaged us about some pretty obvious weigh-in errors made by other people. Rest assured that before we tally up the final FINAL numbers, we’ll be triple-checking everything to make sure everything looks kosher. A lot of the “offenders” have messaged us as well to correct their errors. Thank you all.


The final two weeks are upon us and we’re still running at 50% participation. Not the best, but typically we’re down around 30% by now so I’ll take it!

Today’s topic of discussion is about change. What changes have you noticed in your weight loss journey that caught you by surprise? What change are you the most excited for? Did you have any not-so-fun surprises that you feel others might want to prepare themselves for?
