    making the chart...

    I agree on a posting each friday.

    What should our name be for the challenge?
    Not a lot to lose or something spicier?

    What do we want the challenge to be for the first week?

    When I get a name/challenge I will repost TODAY to start the challenge with the chart... it will be under motivation message boards

    LOL shagybear we are two of the same mind! I was thinking something on the lines of "littlest losers", but I really like yours too.

    Thanks annaelise for nominating yourself to be the leader. I don't know what a challenge could be that is feasible for everyone. My personal challege this week was no fast food. I have done pretty well. It takes a lot of planning. I realize, I head out when I have forgotten to grocery shop or am very busy.

    Since we have a small amount to lose, could next weeks challenge be to get 2-3 strength training sessions in addition to our cardio? I like Jillian Michaels' "No More Trouble Zones" for my toning days. We have to keep it tight ladies!

    2) the 1st challenge for the week

    For a challenge, the first week how about drinking at least 8 glasses of water? Obviously, like someone else said if people want to tweak the goal to be more or less water, that's fine. For example, I try to get in 10 glasses a day.

    Also, I'm sure the chart is huge, but as I've learned with other groups, they tend to thin out, so it will probably be less overwhelming (in terms of the quantity of participants) as time goes on.

    I like the "Little Losers" group name! Cute! And I'm in for 8 glasses of water per day. I usually shoot for 10-12, but I think everyone should try to meet their water goal, whatever it is. 8 minimum. Thought?

    Water challenge sounds great. I'm usually really good during the week, but weekends kill me for my water intake!!

    And I like the "Little Losers" name too!!! Awesome job!!! :D
