    Another good idea would be either to limit the group to a certain number or have a number of teams within the group competing against each other. That way it is easier to manage the whole group - teams would be more motivating and something for folks to work hard towards.

    Would you like to be a leader on this group, you seem to know the ropes. If not that's okay too. How many do you think we should limit it to? I'm new to this and still learning my way around this part of the site.

    It depends on the number of people that are in the group.
    Things we could use for motivation: do an extra 100 jumping jacks per day for one week along with your normal exercise
    Try a new food, for example: chick peas - full of protein and fiber
    Get a free water app and install on your phone - keeps track of your water and acts as reminder
    Share recipes and baking tips

    Summer is coming and folks want to look good, me included - we need to keep up the motivation.
