Accountability challenge

Hi! I'm looking for people to join my accountability challenge that goes to the end of the year. Every Friday we weigh in and the goal is to lose at least 2# a week. This way we will start 2017 with new healthy habits and at least 16# lighter!
I've used MFP off and on but I'm new to the community. If you have any pointers feel free to let me know. Also I'm in SC so would love to hear from locals.
Let's do this!

    I think losing anything each week is a success. Also more than 2 pounds loss per week is not healthy or achievable except for those who are quite large or have a lot of weight to lose. I'm short and only have 10 to 15 pounds to lose so I'm set for about 0.3 pounds per week (though I sometimes lose up to just over a pound due to extra exercise).

    Great idea though, just the 2+ pounds goal might be a bit too aggressive for some users.

    I'd be happy to join you. Are you planning on using this thread or are you going to start a group? Or are you going to start a thread in the Challenge section? Just let me know and I'll jump on board.
