    I could definitely friend anyone who is interested (or vice versa)...or we could just post our progress on this thread (or start a new one). thoughts?

    If we friend one another we could track each others progress as well as provide moral support.

    how about we start a separate thread for it. each day (or however often), we can post if we stayed within our calorie limit/exercise needed for our weight loss goal. We can also post weight loss. The time period would be today through september 30.

    This way, people don't have to add people as friends...but certainly can if they want.

    consensus?

    What is the challenge? Just weight loss, rather than something like a squat challenge or # miles per day, etc.?

    You might consider creating a group (just click 'Groups' in the menu bar above) to track progress.

    I would be willing to take the challenge as well.

    Upon reading the policies--it appears a Group is the appropriate place for such challenges. I have created the Group entitled: Weight Loss Challenge-Mid-August. Hopefully, this works.

    I found it. I had to turn safe search off and it was there. Took me a minute :) I'm new to all of this. I joined! Thank you for the challenge!

    hmmm...i wonder why you had to turn safe search off...not sure what that is actually. it might be because i checked the box for adult content (with the intent that those participating would be adults). i will have to check that out.

    ~~~~~~~~~~
    I just unchecked that box....maybe that was the issue.
