The rules are.............On Aug 1st weigh yourself and write it down. For the month of Aug you will come here for incouragement, tips, recipes and most important {{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}. On Aug31 you will weigh yourself again and PM me with your loss. This is on the honor system. The person who lost the most amount will win a prize. The prize is a FQ from the people who lost less. The loser of the challenge will contact the BIGGEST loser for the contact info as to where to send their FQ. A person can not win 2 months in a row but they can play along and win everyother month if they are the BIGGEST LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This months THEME.........................Food, apples or oranges, cakes or pies. I would really like to stick to the theme but do not want to turn anyone away so as always if you don't have a FQ with the theme and can not go out and buy one use a FQ from your stash.

PLEASE IF YOU SIGN UP SEND THE FQ TO THE WINNER PEOPLE HAVE NOT DONE SO IN THE PAST AND IT IS REALLY NOT FAIR.

I will do it! I got on the scale last week and saw the biggest number yet!

Gwyn 07-29-2010 11:07 PM

OH, I hope I win. I have been wanting to make a canning jar quilt, but I need fabrics with food as the design. Canned greenbeans, tomatoes, cherries, etc. I shall ratchet up the work out. And skinny down the food. Okay...let's do break dancing... good exercise. Jane Fonda? Richard Simmons? Here I come... I'm dancing to the oldies tonight!

Psychomomquilter 07-30-2010 03:09 AM

You don't create a quilt the the person who lost the most amount of weight gets a FQ from the people who lost less. This month the FQ has to have food on it. Easy peasy

mardilee 07-30-2010 06:22 AM

Count me in! :D

trupeach1 07-30-2010 06:25 AM

So far 28 are in................ that means some luck person will not only lose weight and be on their way to being healthy they will win 27 FQ's or a total of about 7 yds of WONDERFUL fabric. Now that is an insentive to lose weight if I ever saw on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
