    Some have expressed interest in a reward/incentive plan for losing the most weight in a month's time and the winner will receive a fq from each one participating. This will be based on the honor system and each person will be truthful about their total weight loss for the month. The choice will be solely up to you to join in, but here is the way it will work.

    All participants are voluntarily joining to lose weight and will be competing to be the top loser for the month of April. This time there will be a 1st place and 2nd place winner. The winners will receive a fat quarter from the other participants. If there is a tie the fat quarters will be divided up equally. After everyone has sent a pm with the total pounds they have lost, for the time period, a winner will be determined and posted on the same thread. You may pm Lneal with your weekly loss if you feel it would benefit you, however this is optional.

    YOU MUST DO The FOLLOWING:

    Sign in here to verify your intention to join this.

    Please pm Lneal with your beginning weight on April 1. On April 30 each participant will pm Lneal with their ending weight. Every one's weight is strictly confidential. On May 1, the winners will be posted. It will then be the responsibility of the losers to contact the winners with details on how to send the fat quarter.

    Those who wish to participate will be the ones who post to this new thread. The original thread "Weigh In" will continue as it always has for everyone, so that we can get the encouragement and support we need from each other. You may post how much you have lost weekly, but please no running totals.

    Any questions please pm Lneal.

    Thanks for your participation

    Linda

    Any questions about the theme for the month of April may be asked to trupeach.

    I'm in! Maybe this can motivate me. Fabric is good. I love fabric. Do I love fabric more than eating extra pieces of bread???? Hmmm, the answer revealed April 30.

    I missed the part where we wait for the winner to be announced and then send them. So sorry for the mix up.

    I thought more people would have signed up by now there is still a few more days to go. The weigh in thread has been pretty quiet I wonder where everyone is.
