Quick question on the percentage of weight loss?? how does that work?? I'm just wondering for someone tall like me 5'11" and lets say I weigh 160 lbs which is good for my height but say someone 5'5" is the same weight. It will obviously be much easier for her to lose weight than me because she is more overweight. Just wondering since we didn't do BMI's or tell our heights how this works??

Hopefully all heals well and I will participate in the next one. Keep up the great work, everyone is going to look GREAT on their wedding day!!!
Aww I am so sorry! I hope you heal quickly and feel better soon. I broke my foot once too, it was the worst so I feel your pain. I have exercises to do on a broken foot if you want. It made my other leg so strong and I got great arm workouts from the crutches. PM me if you want some exercises.

I believe we are doing it just like the biggest loser show which they did not factor in height or BMI or anything. Thats why most of the guys were at an advantage because they had more to lose and all. Am I correct Ann or Christine, or anyone?

This is why we do percentages so its fair. For example someone like Erica (cessyboston) doesn't need to lose 50 pounds. So it wouldn't be fair. But someone like me does. LOL. So Ann calculates the percentage just like the do on the Biggest Loser so that it doesn't go by pounds lost it goes by the percentage of body fat you shed off your body.
