Should have cut me some slack.
Were correct about the rules

Recently we had, in the office a slimming contest.
As we were in the office all week, Monday to Friday.
I made an error, as due to a bank holiday Monday, I thought the weigh in would be Friday that week!
I forgot Id been sent an email to say that it would actually be the following Tuesday. That would be the last day of the contest!
That email came with an acceptance button and I’d clicked “YES” on it.
So, on Friday I weighed myself and posted my weight. I hadn't lost anything that week but was still 2 1/2 lbs in the lead and figured no one would catch me up, as we were all weighing ourselves that Friday...right?
You should have seen my face when they said the final weigh in was at 12 pm on the Tuesday
I was like "guys...you can't make me weigh in, I did it on Friday" & "come on guys I'd had a lot of pizza, beer, chips over the bank holiday weekend, this isn't fair"
Of course, the Saturday, Sunday and the Monday...I'd erm...pigged out I guess. I mean we each paid £2 per week for 4 months, with half the money going to charity. I had the envelope with the money I thought I’d one in my hand. One of the guys took that from me saying “I’ll look after that for now” and I was like “come on guys, I weighed in on Friday, you know I did, I can’t get weighed today, I had a lot to eat at the weekend”. Yeah you can tell they practically dragged me to the scales “Weigh in time”. Again I was “come on guys, I had beer, pizza, pringles, fries the whole long weekend…you…you can’t ask me to weigh myself again, give me a break right?”
Those 2 ½ lbs I was in the lead by, I’d put that weight back on, so anyone that lost weight that week would win. One guy weighed in and he lept into the lead by 1lb.
