Portly Angler Challenge 2010 - Official Thread
Here are the rules for the challenge, slightly modified from 2010.
1. Entry fee is 1 Wooden Plug
2. Competition will be based on percentage of weight lost (Weight Lost / Weight at Start = Percentage Lost) not on actual pounds.
3. To get in just post in this thread "I'm In" by 12 midnight on January 2nd (Relax and enjoy New Years Day). You can post your starting weight. A Pic is Optional......its just for reference. If anyone would like to take the "Lady Angler" option just Say "I'm In with the Lady Angler Option" when they enter, then they can just PM me their starting weight and their updates and I will just post your Percentages only at the update intervals.
4. On the 1st and 15th of every month post how much you've lost and we'll figure out what your percentage is.
5. The contest ends May 1st 2010....just in time to hit the Suds. Post your Final Weight and we will see who the Winners are.
6 The Second place winner will receive 3 plugs and the 1st Place winner will receive the rest. Of course the 1st Place guy gets to pick 1st.

I have a very special BigFish plug I'll send to the winner as a bonus, assuming the loss is 35 pounds +

this is true... I drink about a case of beer a year.
Soda is my poison... Working across the street from one of the best dinners in the state doesn't help either....

One big fat happy family!
Glad to see John let BrianS in - the more the merrier I say!!! One big fat happy family - Can we keep a total weight for the group? That would be cool to see total poundage. Anyone on the MA South Shore that want to meet up to walk Nantasket or any other suggested area on Saturdays or Sundays  |

Joining in late isn't a problem. The later you join the more of a challenge it gets but whenever you join it'll be good for you - that's what counts.
As for the plugs, I'll probably have people bring them to the shows and drop off - no need to mail individually.

I am not looking for sympathy here, but I have stayed the same. Hurt my back which took about four weeks before I could hop back on the treadmill. Second day on the treadmill the control board shorted out. Se la vie! Waiting for new board, should be here Monday, via Brown. The I'll get skinny.  |

John as we spoke I'm going to lower my starting weight from 220 to 212. My scale was off a bit and I don't want to cheat anyone. So I'm going with 212 as a starting weight. So 212 for me.
