1. The challenge will run from Tuesday May 1st through Wednesday July 4th


2. You may join the challenge at any time beginning May 1st, and late-comers are most welcome. You can even join the challenge in June. To join the challenge, post your height, starting weight and goal weight.
   
   You may choose any goal you like. But if your goal is to lose more than 18 pounds during the challenge period -- more than two pounds a week -- please explain why you think your goal is realistic.
   
   This website is dedicate to healthy, common sense, lasting weight loss, and does not support crash diets which do not have realistic expectations of producing long-term results.
   
   For more information, please see the Tutorial ( http://www.thelegacywebsite.com/tutorial.php ) and the forum topic The Most Likely Reason Your Diet Will Fail ( forum46/5491.html ).
   
   Your height will be used to display your BMI. Disclosing your height is optional but as incentive to share your height with us, unless told your height I'll just assume you are 5' (1.52m).


3. Pick a day for your weekly weigh-in, and stick to it a closely as you can. Then post your current weight each week -- or as often as you would like!

4. Those who are not losing weight, and those who are gaining, will receive praise for continuing to participate. It's so easy to run and hide! We've all been there ourselves.
   
   We also know that by participating, they are very likely doing better than they otherwise would be.


5. The results will be updated every Wednesday (or more often) and posted right here just below these instructions, so they will always be easy to find.
   
   We want the challenge stats to be realistic and reflect active challenge members, so anyone not posting for two consecutive weeks will be dropped from the list. But they will be put right back on the next week should they post again.
   
   If you need to withdraw from the challenge, please have the courtesy to post a farewell note or send me a Private Message (PM). Your name will be removed.


6. You are encouraged to share how you are doing during the challenge, and especially to give each other support. However, to make it easier for me to find your weekly weight, please try make sure your weight stands out (if your browser lets you do this).
