I'm in also.  I need to lose a lot more than 10 pounds but it would be a good start.

Sounds like a great contest. I will contribute an Ipod shuffle ($50) so that you can keep moving and grooving the pounds off. Working out to music is really effective.

I wasn't going to do this as I was going along quite well with not gaining weight… but then I ate more over Christmas than I was intending, and New years looks to be just as bad.  So… I thought I'd bring this thread to the top for anyone else who, like me, is feeling a little bloated.  :)

I wouldn't mind getting in.  I need to only lose 10 lbs but I need to learn to keep it off.  I can contribute a custom header.  I am in the process of designing another Yakezie header now.Laugh

I already emailed you, but I'll make it public as well – I put back on 10 pounds over the last 3 months and I am still 20 pounds from my intended target, so I will be participating too.  Laugh
