We are thrilled to release the winners of Summer 2017 Sleekgeek 8-Week Challenge! This was our 19th Sleekgeek challenge to date (we do 3 per year).

Once again, each of our challengers worked incredibly hard to achieve impressive results throughout their 8-week challenge period and our judges really had their work cut out for them to come up with our top winners.
Here are some quick stats:
- We had 431 Sleekgeek Challengers submit their final results, losing a total of 2,211.8kgs (up from 1,286.6kgs the previous challenge).
- They lost an average of 5.1kgs per person (same at the previous challenge – this seems to be a pretty constant number every single challenge which is actually really cool!).
- The top 50 Sleekgeek Challengers lost a total of 699.6kgs (up from 640kgs the previous challenge).
- The top 50 Sleekgeek Challengers lost an average of 13.9kgs per person (up from 12.6kgs the previous challenge).
Great job Sleeks! You guys and girls knocked it out of the park!
You can see a full Top 50 Weight Loss Chart towards the bottom of this results page.
All of those who submitted final results are that much closer to their goals – isn’t it time that you gave it a go?
So, a huge round of applause to our top 20 challengers who walk away with awesome prizes (pictured below) as well as bragging rights in our Winter Challenge of 2017! And, of course, a massive thanks to our awesome prize sponsors!
There are 5 winners in each of the 4 categories:
Judging process
A quick reminder that we have 4 categories to ensure fair competition: Men’s transformation, women’s transformation, men’s weight loss, and women’s weight loss.
Transformation is judged by our independent panel of judges via an audited voting process. The Transformation category is determined by who the judges believed had to do the most work to get from ‘Before’ to ‘After.’
Weight loss is judged purely by kilograms lost based on before and after measurements submitted and confirmed by before and after photos (which include a photo of their measurement on the scale).
Sleekgeek and its staff are not involved in the final decision-making and we accept the judges’ decisions as final.
