F2F-WLC CHALLENGES:
- - WEEKLY GROUP CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by teams for the entire group)
- - MODERATOR'S CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by the moderators of the group)
- - INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGES (Challenges within teams themselves)
Team Weekly challenges will be announced in later communications
(Note:The team order for challenges follows the team order in the group standing sheet on the spreadsheets)
HOW OUR CHALLENGES WORK:
We have 4 total possible challenges and NONE are mandatory. Our challengers can do none or all it's up to them. So we have...
The F2F Weekly TEAM Challenge - posted each week on Sunday in the announcements by the team who is assigned that particular week (see above for your week). This is for the F2F Group as a whole.
F2F Moderators Challenge/Topic of the week - This challenge is provided each week in the announcements area. One of the moderators will either provide a challenge that will involve anything fitness, health, and nutrition.
Individual Team challenges - these are challenge done within your own team. You can chose daily, weekly, or monthly challenges (weekly seems to work best). You can make this whatever you wish as long as it's health and fitness related.
Note: If for some reason your team is unable to provide the weekly challenge please let me know ahead of time so another team can take your place or so I can provide the challenge.
Good Luck Teams: Please let us know if there is anything wrong or if you notice something that needs to be fixed or modified. Everything seems ready to go for JUNE. Registrations are almost done and we have quite a few new challengers. Make sure you are going into your new team threads to welcome anyone who has started posting. Let’s make our newbies feel welcome and show them some F2F love!!
THANKS, YOUR MODS

Saturday Check-in

Other fun stuff - I saw this and thought it had some great info and ideas. It had some ideas on eating mindfully, which I think was part of a recent challenge from @broncobuddee . Anyway, I have been working to pay more attention to that.

Welcome to our new members - and welcome back to returning members!!
I am Mark (@broncobuddee), a Slimpossible captain along with captain Jen (@Kres567). Team leadership also includes our awesome motivators Terri (@tess5036) and Austin (@AustinRuadhain) as @UTMom81 takes a summer break.
But we are really just the behind-the-scenes support to an great team with substantial participation by the team members.
Here are some pointers to get our new team members started:
1) Weigh-ins
Moderators have already posted instructions on the weigh-ins but as a reminder on your weigh-in day please post your weight in the following format:
Username: (Your MFP username)
Weigh in week: (The week you are entering your weight for ex. Week 4)
Weigh in day: (The day you weigh in each week. Sat-Fri)
Previous Weight: (The last weight you entered)
Todays Weight: (Your weight on your chosen weigh in day)
2) Check-ins
Along with our weekly weigh ins, many team members also participate in daily check-ins. We recommend them as a way to stay accountable and provide the following information each day:
Calories: over/under?
Water: over/under?
Exercise:
Goal or Improvement for tomorrow:
3) Challenges
Various team, group and moderator challenges may pop up throughout the month. Some will be announced on the main group page and some will appear in our team thread so keep your eyes open for them. Many are based on the week, some run the entire month. All are completely optional.
Finally, Your participation is key!! Have a success today? Share it! A challenge? Share it! A question? Please ask! Some else is likely to benefit from your participation.
Let's help welcome our new members with some introductions. Please share your name, where you live, how long you have been on MFP, and anything you want to share about your weight loss journey so far - successes, challenges, goals for the month.3 -
Everyone please check the group spreadsheet at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VQmJU-PP_euAafrfd1eBSlDt6K7sTnl2-LxUJ1CUUWo/edit#gid=2032789470 and make sure we've recorded your starting weight correctly. For returning members, this would also be your weigh-in from May, week four. Let us know of any corrections. Thanks!2

To all our new and existing members with a Fitbit
Did you know we have a very active Fitbit stepping group with lots of regular challenges. If you are not already a member and would like to join, just add me as a friend on Fitbit and I'll hook you up with everyone else 😁
If you are in the group, and a challenge gets filled, let me know, I'll set up another

Sunday Check-in:
Calories: Under
Water: Over
Exercise: Other than dancing with the kids in children's church, I did nothing. My body is still tired from yesterday.
I had a good day. Fasted for 20 hours and have had no sugar. I've made my dinner menu for next week all planned out. I'm going low carb other than the one day where I will eat leftover homemade lasagna. I can't let that goodness go to waste!!
Hello to all the new members of Slimpossibles!! This is a great group and you will receive lots of support and encouragement. 4 -

Your week one team challenge is brought to you by @AustinRuadhain and @Kres567 (I'm just posting on behalf of Jen). Without further ado...
Week 1 Team Challenge - Pick your Strategy
Thanks @AustinRuadhain for sharing your articles recently. The one you posted today about overeating junk food is so great. I thought I would use it to form a team challenge for us as we kick off June.
After reading the information included in the infographic, choose 1 or 2 strategies that you would like to start working on to battle the sugar cravings and overeating. I've read before that habits take at least 66 days to form and stick so the strategy(ies) you choose could be something you have been wanting to start incorporate into your healthy habits. Please share with the team what strategy you have selected!

Uhhhh... the [still sleep-deprived] beagle could have taken the first step and introduced himself...
I'm Mark, single, 50, 6', Michigan, higher ed information technology. Weight was 400+ for nearly two decades, down to around 220 in 2017, back up a little, need to come down. Low carb is my plan when being well-behaved. Plan for the month is to re-tighten the carb count.
