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

Team Weight No More's Week One Challenge
I don't have time. I sit all day at the office. Excuses. That is all they are. If you want something bad enough you will figure out how to make it happen. I have learned that as long as I am moving, I am burning calories. It doesn't have to be a full 30 minutes. Even if you do just 5 minutes at a time it is better than 0 minutes. 5 minutes at a time thru out the day can add up to a really good workout. And likely the hardest part is just getting started. So come on.... Get up off that chair. Trust me, no one will care and you will definately not regret it.
I have includes some posters of office friendly exercises. Anyone can do them. So come on... Lets do one poster a day. Then, go to your team thread and tell them how you did. There is something for everyone. No excuses. Everyone has 5 minutes. Lets start making being active a habit, even if we have an sedentary job. And captains, hold your team accountable. Ask them everyday, what they are doing to be more active. Lets change our lifestyle one day, one pose at a time.

Hi everyone I’m so happy to be part of the team. Pumped and ready to crush this!2
-
I'm going to try for 2lb a week this challenge, so 10lb by my final weigh in on Aug 1, taking me down to 175.8 (I dont have any idea of the last time I was under 180 so to be half way out of them by Aug 1 would be rather wonderful!)
Having had a ridiculously crazy week at work last week which leads me to snack on the wrong foods and a big night out on Friday, I'm not sure my first week will be pretty..... but, from there on in I am focused!!!
Spending my Sunday afternoon planning food and exercise for next week, determined to make July my best month yet!2 -
Hi all! If you see an insightful selected on your post by myself or @boehle, it is just an indication we have noted your weigh in or steps.1

Hi my name is Linda and I live in London, Ontario. I am 55 and the mother of three grown children. I have 2 beautiful granddaughters and a third on the way.
I started this challenge at the beginning of February. I have lost 45 pounds so far. I count calories and usually faithfully log my food. I was on vacation for 4 weeks and I loosely logged. For the past week I didn’t log at all. So this month my goal is to get back to properly logging food as it is the key to my success.
My goals for July:
Log food properly
Walk and swim more
Lose 10 pounds
CW 217.8
GW 207.8
UGW 160.0 (May change this once I get there)1 -
We will be having a step challenge once again in July. If you would like to participate, please let me know. You will need to report your steps of the previous day daily.

Hi, July is my sixth month on the challenge, I'm Australian, mum to a 13 yr old.
I eat low-carb, moderate protein, moderate healthy fats, avoid processed and refined foods, and I do intermittent fasting. I have insulin resistance and am on Metformin, and a sluggish thyroid (no meds for thyroid, only supplements, so far).
Since joining this challenge I've lost 29kgs / 64 lbs, my sleep has improved (am no longer an epic snorer, for which my husband is grateful), I wake refreshed in the morning and have much better energy levels during the day. Stress can be an issue for me - my daughter has health issues and I am primary carer - however, I have stopped stress eating and am pretty good at sticking to my way of eating.
My stats:
169cm / 5'7'
40 years
Highest Weight: 263.5lbs/119.5kg (Sunday 27th January 2019)
July Challenge Start Weight: 200.8 lbs /91.1kg (24th June)
July Challenge Goal Weight: 189.8 lbs /86.1kg ( 29th July)
Additional July goals: keep up regular walking, strength training twice per week, incorporate 5 mins mindfulness daily.3 -

Hi everyone!
PW: 245
CW: 244
1 pound lost this week. A bit disappointing as I have been on the 1 1/2 to 2 pound per week track. Slow and steady, I keep reminding myself.
Hoped to get back on the exercise bike, but tried out 10 minutes on Friday and my knee was really sore the next day. So I shall wait a couple more weeks. So, overall am very happy with my progress for June, especially since it was a zero exercise month.

its better than a gain though.2 -
@boehle
Yes, you are so right. And I was up for most of the week, so I shall take 1 pound with gladness! I struggle with patience. The resolution for that is time and dedication. "Trust the process".0 -
Green challenge - I am going to accept this challenge with a goal of 239, a loss of 5 pounds for the month of July. I am shooting for under 240!1
