HOW TO REGISTER FOR THE BIGGEST LOSER CHALLENGE IN THREE EASY STEPS!

1. Learn what the Biggest Loser Challenge is all about and meet the teams
Here's How:

• Navigate your way to the BLC Orientation page using the following link: https://blcteam.weebly.com/meet-our-teams.html. As you go through the orientation you may want to write down your three team choices to list later.

2. Register for the BLC Challenge
Here's How:

• Head on over to the registration page using the link at the end of the orientation or by following this link: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/140750-the-blc-biggest-loser-challenge-registration-team
• Join the registration group by clicking on the “Join” button, (you will not be able to post to the page until you join the group).
• Scroll down to the “Discussions” area and click on the link that reads, 🔺REGISTRATION FOR BLC55 - SPRING/SUMMER ROUND JOIN THE REGISTRATION TEAM FIRST!🔻
• Read the first post on the thread and follow the directions there. You will be asked to list the teams you chose in step one.

3. Join the BLC Team
Here's How:

• AFTER REGISTERING BY FOLLOWING STEPS 1-2, go to the BLC Team Page using this link: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/140802-blc-54-winter-round
• Join the team by clicking the join button.
• Enter "BLC55" under reason for joining.

IMPORTANT: Add Grace GRACIE6 and Alice aalley5 as friends! In doing so, they can message you with any pertinent information. They are two of the coordinators of BLC and can help you with any snafoos you come across. ;-)

Here is how to friend someone if you are not sure:

• Click on the "Find Members" tab in the menu bar on this page.
• Type in the user name GRACIE6 and click on the green search button and it will take you to her profile page.
• Click on the green "Add As Friend" button.
• On the next page, click on the green "Add As Friend" button again. You do not need to write a message.

That's it! Onces Grace accepts your request you can message each other with any questions or concerns. Don't forget to request to be Alice's friend too.

The Next Steps
Once the BLC Admin accepts your request to join the BLC Group, you will find the BLC Group link in the MFP Community Section under “My Groups”. It may take a couple of days before it shows up.
You can follow all the BLC news on the BLC Group Page including team placements which will be posted the week before the round begins.
The BLC Round 55 challenge runs from May 1st - July 24th. but you don't have to wait! Once you are registered you are welcome to join in on the Break Challenge that is going on now. Just look for the link on the main BLC Group Page.

If you are running into trouble registering then reread the above directions making sure you did not miss a step. If you continue to have problems then contact Grace by first friending her on MFP and then sending a MFP message to @GRACIEC6 (messages do not go through on MFP if you do not friend the person first).

We can't wait for you to become part of the BLC family!

Please join us for the next round of the Biggest Loser Challenge. If you are looking for something to help you keep accountable or motivated and have some fun at the same time - look no further. I joined the challenge in the beginning of 2023, and have lost almost 75 since I started. I liked it so much I became a captain of Determined Desert Tortoises. Our team, and many of the other great teams at BLC, is looking for new members and we would love for you to join us. The Determined Desert Tortoises are a wonderful group; sharing great ideas, support, motivation, and accountability in such a nonjudgmental way.

There are 13 teams to choose from - each has a different style but we're all trying to reach our goals!

How do you add Grace GRACIE6 and Alice aalley5? I can't see the find member link.

iLive2Walk

@daydreamangel - Adding friends is cumbersome on MFP now that they took the find member link off. Took me a while to figure out - they took the find member link off

1. Click on Community
2. Put Member Name in Search Box and hit enter
3. Then you will see the Members button
4. Click on Member's username
5. View Profile
6. Click on MyFitnessPal Profile
7. Add as Friend

Alternative
If they are in the discussion thread (as @Graciec6 is in this post) you can just hit the username next to their comment and it will bring you to step 5 above.

Hope that helps!
