TOPIC: Post GC Pre GHC Weight Loss Challenge 2023

Ok, I am restarting a weight loss challenge. If I ever succeed, someone else may have to take up the mantle.

Starting weigh in will be any date from 8/14/23-8/28/23

Final weigh in date will be 10/16/23-10/18/23

Entry will be $20.

If we get 10 participants, I will donate a golden fleece as a 2nd place prize.

If we get 20 participants, I will also donate a bead of bounty as a 2nd place prize, and the golden fleece will move to a random prize.

I am eligible to win any prizes, if I actually do so.

If you would like to participate under a pseudonym, please PM me.

Contest is % of initial bodyweight lost.

I'll post my values publicly.
