This has been brought up every month since I started the challenge. It seems no one takes into consideration there are between 50-100 people each month. Do you realize the amount of time it would take to keep track of that? This is NOT a paying job. We have had it lbs lost for a year, it has worked, no one feels cheated. We are more in it for the support, encouragement and friendship, the FQ's are an added bonus. There has been winner who lost as little as 7 lb and others losing as much as 20. However if anyone would like to start a thread with % lost not lbs feel free to do so. I know there are the regulars who are happy with it this way. We have become family.
Ouch.....
Hope this is not a family only site, I have been on several threads over the years that the "family" looks over the newcommers......
