Ok so as most of you know i am a FLUFFY guy ok ok very very fluffy guy. So i have been talking about losing weight for sometime now. I dont know what my issue is with not stepping up to the plate and just doing it. So i was thinking maybe there some more of me's out there that need to shed a few pounds. Or like me damn near a person, toddler whatever the case maybe. Perhaps its laziness that gets the best of me or the lack of there being more than just me feeling better. I know if i get moving on it and start losing it i will feel so much better. And truly my son is getting more active and i would like to be able to keep up with him in the next couple of years if you all know what i am saying. So after being long winded and wasting the skinny people such as Tim and Rescue Rob's time. Here is what i am thinking, perhaps there are more people like me that are ready and looking for a reason that will get them motivated. Since not everyone has the same potential to lose the same amount of weight. So we will have to do like a percentage of weight and inches lost to figure out who could be the BIGGEST LOSER.. since i know i am most awesome and will lose the most of all i will do this for me as bragging rights. Here what we will do. I will get a plague made for the person who loses the most (not to be given to me if i did lose the most). Labeled something like Columbiana County Firefighters Biggest Loser. Some sort of county design and what not. Maybe a few ideas if you all have any. I think we are all honest enough here to not have to have someone baby sit this right??? (if you think we will need a person to say yes this was what the person lost we will figure it out right??).
.
so here is the deal. Open for suggestions as well if anyone has any. But heres what i was thinking.
1.we will run the contest for ten (10) weeks.
2.We will do weight and inches. (inches being waist, chest, upper arms, upper thighs.) if anyone is embraced to put it on the web send me a message and i will keep it quiet and only use it to break down the percentages. I will send you my weight and inches and trust me i dont want to brag about it but i will put it on so you all can go what a fat pos lol. We will put only the amount of weight lost and inches lost and what the average was for that person.
3.You have to have a goal or need to lose at least fifteen (15) pounds.(lets face it if you only need to lose five (5) pounds you could kill those of us fat people in the stats i believe.
4.We will start it Tuesday May 26th 2009 at midnight. That way everyone can get the last holiday rush. (lets face it we put everything together last minute do we not???). You have up until Wednesday May 27th at Midnight to say yes i want in.
5.dont do anything that will cause you bodily harm to lose weight. This is to make us healthier not get someone hurt or killed ok???
6.if there is anyone in your station that is not on FireFighterNation and would want in let us know. And we will add them to the list. I dont want to post my number on the web or my regular email but i will give it to anyone here in email. I know its short notice. Maybe we should take in people little longer. What do you all think??
7.Tuesday August 4th 2009 at midnight is the cut off.

So there it is. Lets take a look and see what changes we would like to make to this and see what we can do to make it happen. If everyone thinks this is a not so hot idea let me know and ill delete the thread. But there it is. Anyone up for it???

sorry i know i got long winded again.. seems i do that alot dont i lol..
