Jen

Huzzah! Nice work, Jennie! Will you also create a Twitter list we can all subscribe to, too?

agirlandaboy

Love it, love it, love it. I'll be cheering you all on and, hopefully, getting fitter right beside you.

Kerri Anne

You are amazing. Thanks! again for all the hard work you've put into this, babe.

Vos...just for a little while longer

So awesome! When the vending machine calls to me to eat chocolate donuts and a real coke I click the hashtag and realize why I shouldn't do this because I have so many people to be accountable to. I hope to see the enthusiasm and support throughout the ENTIRE 12 weeks..why because we are all awesome!

Nanette

Great job, Jennie! So excited to be a part of this!

I actually just went through and added the rest of the Tweeps who weren't already on my Biggest Blogging Loser list. You can find it here: http://twitter.com/#!/list/Nanette/bbl-16

Ginger

No matter where I end up at the end, thank you so much for putting this together! It's finally given me the motivation to start!

Court

WOW---look what YOU inspired!!! GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL :-D

april

Wow! That's insane ... in a great way! I'm printing out the screenshot to put on my fridge ... and my fridge at work, and my cubical and maybe the mirror in my bathroom. It makes me not want to eat for the next three months and that's saying something! It also makes me wish I did twitter but I'm already addicted to social media - I can't do that too!

Is anyone interested in a FB group too?

Caitlin

Jennie, you are seriously amazing for doing this. I can't imagine the extra amount of work it is (actually...I can, which I how I know you are awesome). Thank you so much for doing all this -- it has truly ben a gift, and the best $20 I ever spent!

Caitlin

uh..been. It has BEEN a gift. Who's Ben?! ;)

Lori

Good work Jennie! I am so glad that you organized this because I really needed some motivation to recommit to my weightlose/health.

jenny

jennie - thank you so much for starting this! you rock!

michelle sauer

Wow, that's amazing! Good for everyone. I wish I would have known, I totally would have joined! Good luck to you all. That's an awesome prize to win!

ali v

Thanks so much for all your work on this Jennie! I cannot believe the size of the pot.

Also, I'm a little late to the game here, but after reading your post about everyone's twitter messages, I realized it would be more fun to join and hear about everyone's progress first hand, so I'm making a twitter attempt - @rambocandy.

Kristin C.

Yeah!!!! So exciting! This is going to be great, thank you for dreaming it and executing it!

A.

This is amazing. Congrats Jennie on a great project! I'll be following along, for sure. :)

Jenn

Awesome!! Thanks for putting all of this together!! Now I need to start a twitter account.

Kristabella

AWESOME! I didn't realize that many people would sign up! Thanks again for organizing and putting in all this work!

Good luck everyone!

glamgranola

Thanks so much for doing this! If it weren't for you. I'd still be slowly packing on the poundage. I thank you and so does my ass!

Mary (Mimiallme)

Fantastic! I am so excited about eating right and getting active in these next three months and beyond. Maybe I have been holding onto all of my extra fat for an opportunity like this! =)

Jenn

Okay, I have a twitter account now. My name is on the list as Jennifer, and my twitter is @jigglefreejenn

Mama Bub

So awesome Jennie! Thanks for all of your hard work! So nice to be accountable to such a big group when the cupcake craving hits.

Angela

This is amazing! I am super excited to be a part of it. :-)

Nichole

Yay! Let's go team!

Gav

Less than a week in and I already feel great. Feeling like a stuffed holiday sausage is NOT fun. Thanks Jennie!

Kellylou

There are so many of us!! It makes me feel stronger. LOVE it. :)

Amy --- Just A Titch

I'm so excited about this---thank you so much for organizing. You're one inspiring lady!

Kendall

Thanks for doing that :) I wish they didn't have blogs blocked at work.

Who knew my employer would actually want me to be productive.

Boo!

Brandi

Fantastic, Jennie! Thank you so much for all the work you've done to organize this!

Amy @ Journey Mum

I'm not really in to twitter so I'm not following along there, although I am in the challenge. It's nice to have a little extra motivation. I've been going to the gym on my lunchbreak every day this week!

Rachel

I can say with complete certainty that had it not been for this challenge (even though Mike and I aren't technicaly in it - I am looking at you stupid broken scale) we would have continued being complacent in our weight loss goals. But because of YOU, we are doing this. I will be the hardest thing I have ever done, for food as become so much more to me than just fuel, but I am on this bus, no matter how bumpy the ride gets or how badly I want to get off. I am seeing it through, thanks to you

Elsha

I can't believe so many people joined! And let me tell you, seeing that final jackpot sure made my motivation go through the roof!

Rachel

Holy crap! That is awesome. Even if I don't win, this will be a huge motivator and a great way to spend 20 dollars. I'm totally gonna win though! Thanks for doing this.

Diane

Awesome! Thanks so much for setting this up!

Go Team!

Tara

This is such a fantastic list! I've loved the enthusiasm/support this week. Thank you, Jennie, for putting this all together :)

alimartell

This is awesome!

I really just wish that getting my wisdom teeth removed this week helped me..like, at all. SIGH.

jesser

I would love to do this ... I assume it's too late?? If so ... would you consider doing another?? :)

gohealthyat40

ohhhh... I wish I could've joined this contest to boost my morale to loose haliday fats.
have fun and be healthy!

Post Of The Day

  • Secrets
    You’re only as unique as the secrets you keep. Go do something good. Go do something evil. In solitude and love, it’s beyond good and evil. Go do these things and tell no one. Let them quicken the throb of your heart and the pace of your blood and, as you become your own poem, watch who you become. People will see it in your eyes—not the content of your secrets—but the fact that you have secrets, that you know and have seen secret things. They will love you and hate you, want to possess and destroy you.
