12-Week Weight Loss Challenge

This 12-week weight loss competition begins on May 5th 2025 and ends July 27th 2025. Each participant pays a $25 entry fee and the three people who lose the most weight (measured as a percentage of their starting weight) split the pot. (50%/30%/20%)

You weigh in by texting your weight to an automated system, and other participants will see your progress as percentage lost. When the competition starts, you'll receive a text message from the system, and every week you'll get reminders to weigh in. Simply text your weight in pounds (decimals allowed) to that number and the system will do the rest. You must weigh in within the first week, and at least once every other week thereafter. Failure to weigh in during the first week, or for two entire consecutive calendar weeks will result in expulsion from the contest and forfeiture of your entry fee. It's important to participate for your own motivation as well as that of the other contestants.

Entries must be received no later than May 11th 2025. To enter, send $25 to $TheMightyZeus. If you're paying for multiple entries, send $25 per person. In the note include the name and cell phone number of each entry. This phone number will be used for your weigh-ins and reminders, standard carrier rates apply for text messages. Final weigh-ins must be entered by 11:59 PM CST on July 27th 2025. Photographic evidence of your first and last weigh-ins are required to claim a prize, and may be sent to either of the contest administrators; Jamie Henderson or Zeus Brown.

The more people who enter, the bigger the prize, so tell your friends!
