**RULE ONLY APPLIES TO THOSE THAT LOST 30 POUNDS OR MORE IN 2009 TEAM LEAN**
Returning participants that lost 30 pounds or more in 2009 competition please note:
You may be subject to penalty if you have gained back more than half of your weight lost in 2009 competition. For example if you lost 30 pounds, you would be penalized if you gain back more than 15 of those pounds. If you lost 40 pounds, you would be penalized if you gain back more than 20 of those pounds.
What is the penalty?
Those affected by this rule would not be credited for new weight loss until their weight drops below their 2009 "halfway" number. The halfway number is based on half of your total pounds lost during the 2009 competition. For example if you lost 30 pounds, your halfway number is 15. If you lost 40 pounds, your halfway number is 20.
