    I say a new thread each week would probably be the best way to go. If they are linked together, there shouldn't be any problems. :smile:

    I'm probably going to go over one day on the scale challenge, but that's not too bad.
  • A new thread each week should be easier to find.

    I've just remembered I'm away at the weekend with no access to scales, so my WI will be delayed probably till the Wednesday.

    I don't have any problem finding the thread and going to the last page and working backwards, since I bookmarked it. Although I love FB, I'd rather we stay here on MVP exclusively, but I'll go along with the majority.

    Are we going to start a new thread each week this one is getting pretty long already?
    Laurie

    That is a good question Laurie...I say we should put it to a vote:

    Yes - We should have a new thread for each weigh-in week. (New Thread)
    No - We should stick to the same thread until it gets locked and are forced to make a new one. (Same Thread)

    Lets keep in mind that we have A LOT of members in this group.


    Of course there are always pros and cons. So I'll just name the top two that immediately pop into my head:

    New Thread - people might not find the new thread and could have problems staying connected
    Same Thread - you have to go through so many pages and you might miss important information and it could be overwhelming.


    I am open to whatever the group decides. I have done challenges both ways before. PLEASE VOTE RIGHT AWAY...THE MOST POPULAR VOTE WINS. :)

    I vote New Thread= Yes and Facebook= No.. :)

    Hope you guys did better than me :) Good luck on your weigh-ins! :)

    Sorry I didn't update this last week, hope I can still be in. I had a good loss, but not sure if it is due to the hard work and dancing at many concerts last week, or the fact that I have been sick with bronchitis. Either way I will take it and hope for continuing success next week.

    Looks like everyone is doing great, keep up the hard work!!
