We have had a situation come up and I need everyone's opinion on the following: team tiffany and laureen is no longer. Tiff had to drop out because she did not understand the rules from the beginning and she said it is physically impossible for her to lose her 1% every week and she does not want to bring Laureen down. How does everyone feel about Laureen being her own team? Please respond ASAP so we can figure out what to do. Thanks so much!

It would be nice for her if she had a partner. Isn't there someone that could take Tiff's place that wants to do this?

i do think she needs a partner. That is what the game is all about. (being accountable to another person)It's too bad her partner had to drop on her. The game is not only about the 1% weight loss, it is about making good changes, being a support to your partner and working as a whole entire team. I hate to see Tiff give it all up. Would Jillian let that happen? I don't think this is fair to Laureen and I wish that Tiff would figure out a way to continue. There are other people in this game that are struggling for their first pound of weight loss in 2 weeks. Does this seem fair if those people also drop out in the middle of the game? Not all of us knew our partners before the game started or what their strengths or weaknesses were (just as those that get put together on the biggest loser). What other weight loss program out there only cost $3.00 a week to stay motivated and to MAKE you be accountable? Do we want to make this a game of just winning or to help change and motivate 19 people? I'm sure there are more than just Tiff that would like to give up because we realize that this does require a lot of work and determination. Finish what you start and try not to let a big FART!!!

Have any of you read The Game On diet book? It clearly states in the book if you have reached your goal weight or are not interested in losing weight, you state a fitness goal.

we have been told about the rule but we have changed a few things to fit our game and one of them was that you could only choose a fitness goal if you are at your ideal body weight. If you have quite a bit of weight to lose then we want it to be the 1%. Thanks though whoever you are.
