Welcome to
2015 LOSE TO WIN TEAM EDITION!

We are so excited to begin a new year doing this challenge together.

Below please find some general information and rules. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Team accountability is a major key to weightloss success!

The group is broken down according to the health plan you want to follow.

Most of the teams are calorie counting, but also focus on another method of eating.

Here are the group teams:

Clean Eating
Leaders: coopscoopc, trimminit

MFP Calorie Counting
Leaders: Astraea05, julia_v1, jcolglazier

Calorie Counting & Intense Fitness
Leader: SweeteeBri

Calorie Counting & Smart Carb (Low to moderate carb intake)/LCHF
Christine_1085, Carlsoda


The challenge consists of teams that compete against one another to lose the highest percentage of weight over a two-month period.

Competition will last from January 1 to February 28, 2015.

Members will weigh in each week and report their team weights on the spreadsheet. If you cannot access the spreadsheet, please send your weigh-in numbers to your leader for every weigh-in. Members who do not log their starting weights or who do not weigh in for two weeks in a row will be deleted. Teams with the highest percentage of weightloss are awarded first, second and third place at the conclusion of the challenge.


Welcome to the challenge! We are glad you're here!

    150ish, aNewMiniMe, BuddhaMom74, JulesWatkins, I'm glad you've joined! (And BuddhaMom74, congrats on your success in the last challenge!) I've added your usernames to the spreadsheet. When you get a moment, please verify that I entered everything correctly. :) On January 1, and every ten days thereafter, you will enter your weight. If you have any trouble with the spreadsheet, or have any questions, let your leaders know. They are here to help! And so am I.

    @trimminit - I went in this morning to see if I could add my name and it still reads "view only" Have you opened it up to all? I have tried from my lap top and my iPad Google spreadsheets app.

    I'm waiting to hear back from Christine (the owner), but I'll post in the group and let everyone know. Ideally, you should be able to get in there. I will post an answer as soon as possible! :)

    Welcome Looking, Starting and cjborkowski!!


    Our signup spreadsheet is now working. You can find this under announcements. Simply put your username under the team you'd like to join, and then add your starting weight on January 1st!

    As we are still waiting on some leaders to join, please feel free to go ahead and add your names to the weightloss spreadsheet, as well as the Week One fitness challenge spreadsheet, if you desire.
    I have requested all leaders to sign on and create team threads, answer questions and help get you ready for this challenge. Since it is the holidays, however, we may have some leaders who won't log on until the 1st...though hopefully everyone will be here before then. :)
    Thank you to those who have started a team thread. It is good for your team to be able to jump in, get to know one another, learn more and get excited to Lose to Win!
