BTW, if you have a better idea I'm all up for it! I just don't know any other way to do it (can you tell this is my first time organizing a challenge???) Hm, you could just count pounds lost. Say "Janie" has a goal of losing 8 lbs.... The first week, she loses 2 lbs. So she's at 25% of her goal.... By the last week, she's lost all 8 lbs, giving her 100% of her goal. (I'm bored. I'm lurking. ) Edited by D001 2008-05-30 7:58 PM |

Two options: a) You set a limit of achieving 100% of goal. b) Or you allow more than 100%. Or, you can just make everyone report their starting weight, which is what you had in mind in the first place. |

Yeah, post your weight to your team thread tomorrow. I'll just give a report each week - no fancy spreadsheets (although I will be spreadsheetin' behind the scenes!). |
