hey everyone. I know a lot of you have said you're looking for support. I was thinking we could have a monthly challenge (with groups if there are a lot of us). We would have spreadsheets and report each day or once a week(reporting for all days). I think possible categories, like water, work out, calorie goal and maybe a weekly specific challenge for the entire group. Anyone interested or have any ideas?

I am new to the group, however think this sounds like a great idea. In past challenges to keep everyone motivated we had a start date and an end date. There was a weekly challenge in itself. We posted everyday with a general report and at the end of the week we would post our weekly total loss, and our goal. At the end of the entire challenge awards were sent out!0

Exactly what I had in mind
I was seeing how many people were interested before nailing down specifics. Anyone else 0 -

Hey guys so how do you want to do this I am more than willing to make a spreadsheet of goals? Do you want to check in daily? I am really unmotivated today. I hurt my ankle running so I am taking the day off and my brain is fried from studying so I am just trying to stay in my calorie goal and not eat something horrible 0

I'm in! And I can relate to the stress. Grad school is the worst.0

I'm good with checking in daily. I think a spreed sheet is a good idea. Maybe we can do like a strength training challenge (squats, lunges, etc.) or a walking/running a certain distance/time. We can also do something like cutting out a certain food or drink for a week like sweets, coffee, soda.0

Thanks guys, and I'm so excited. So tomorrow is Monday. I think it would be a great day to start and make this weekly challenges. I'll make a spread sheet, so tomorrow everyone check in with their weight(if you scale a different day we can put that in too), weight loss goal overall, and for the week,(we should do a month one starting next week I think ) let's have weekly and daily goals and try to check in every day either at night or the next morning if we can. So what do we say, we do simple challenges this week and then increase from there.
So this week starting jan 26th: let's say, daily goal to drink water(I think the adequate amount is supposed to be half your weight in oz. so I am 170, I should drink 85 oz or about 11 cups of water). This helps with fatigue, hunger and muscle recovery I believe so it's a good place to start. Weekly: let's try to work out 3/4 times this week for at least 20 min.
How does that sound ladies 0 -

Yay! Way to go ladies! Yesterday I sucked at drinking water so today I have my camelbak out! And as soon as I'm done with Landry I'm heading to run.
A shared Google doc is a great idea! I am not on my computer but eveyone can go in and add themselves and we can keep it updated great idea amary06

I got in a good workout today finally I have decided to start doing yoga. I really need better posture and all I ever hear is yoga is the best thing for you, mentally and physically. I found a beginner video and it is defiantly a lot harder then you think lol but felt amazing ! I also did a cardio mix video I found in YouTube from fitness blender. It was low impact so it's not hard on your body if you are not use to doing a workout routine. I finally looked at how much water I need to drink and its a gallon a day so far I have had 10 8oz glasses. 0

I'm very interested in being involved in this!0
