*Official chat thread for BIGGEST LOSER 3* (UPDATED WITH WINNER!!)

[KLC77]

I've really gotta kick it into high gear these next three weeks. I only lost a pound and a half this week. I really want to lose 8 more pounds before this is over. If I do that I will be in debt to all of you forever for motivating me. This is something I've wanted to stick with for such a long time. I never figured this site would help with this aspect of wedding planning. lol So, a big THANK YOU to everyone! (this is my sappy moment for the day

Awww that was sweet!

totally forgot about this! i do have about 5 people that have missed at least 2 weeks. should i list them? send them a PM? just count them out? what do you all think?

If they haven't even contacted you then I wouldn't even bother, they probably quit. I don't think it's fair for you to have to go out of your way to track people down. KWIM?

Congratulations Becksy. That's awesome.

 

I did go back and find the original rules and that was what we decided at the time. IMO the people who have missed should be left out. I don't want to make waves but we all knew the rules and we have stuck to them, making sure we got up early to weigh in and upload the photo, etc. But I'll go along with whatever everyone else thinks.

Hey ladies,

I just wanted to find out when the next biggest loser starts? I was on the second one but thought it would be too hard to do two in a row. Now I need to get back on my health kick to get in gear for my wedding in January! This was a huge inspiration to push just a little harder to drop the weight!

I guess they can't really say they didn't know! We'll see what happens, but you're probably right. I probably don't need to do anything.

Not sure it's been discussed, but this season ends in a few weeks, and then we usually start them the next week. But it's up to all of you!

[DanielleNDerek]

I'm up for season 4 right after season 3 ends! my wedding is only 2 1/2 months away so i'm running out of time.
