    conniptionfits - You are instantly added to the group when you post or e-mail me you want to join...as is, you are in the group already, you just need to post your starting weight, goal weight for this challenge and final goal. Hope that helps :flowerforyou:

    Obliged - nope, it's not to late, it never will be as we will accept members daily.

    To those who have sent me a message you are all on the list, I'm just waiting on starting weight, so I can add your total to "your team" .

    Hi all team members,

    I am soo excited about joining the Purple Team and the chance to be an online participant to share the weightloss journey with others from mostly across the other side of the planet!

    I have only just watched my first season of Biggest Loser in Australia and was a huge fan. One of the best aspects of the show for me was the revelation of the characters including their hopes and aspirations for the future. Hence I have a question for the group.

    As a way of sharing and becoming connected, strong and united as teams and participants I thought for any interested I would pose a few general questions that would reveal general information about any who wish to share. For instance the below questions, others may wish to suggest some different ones.

    1. If you could do anything with your life what would you do/
    2. If you coudl invite 3 guests from anytime in history to dinner who would your 3 dinner guests be/
    3. What do you plan to do once you reach your goal weight/
    4. Tell us the thing you are most proud of in your life
    5. What's the hardest thing you have ever done?
    6. What's your best piece of advice for others for their weight loss journey?

    Now being new to this site, in fact new to any online forum I'm not sure the above is allowed, and if not oops and sorry.

    I'd be interested to hear others thoughts.

    warm thoughts to all

    5. Meet my birth mother.
    6. Just check in here and try to have fun and talk to whoever you need for the support that you need.

    Just want to make sure I got this correctly

    We weigh in every week but we post measurements every 2 weeks. We dont post our weight on the board we only send to our team leader? I dont want to be doing it wrong.

    RachvR6 - I love the flag! :love:

    Connieq288 - Yes, you weight in every week, and send it to your team leader, but don't post it here.
    You will measure every 2 weeks, (the dates are on the 2nd page of this topic, if needed) and then post those here on the forum. Your Team Leader will need to keep an eye out, so she can track your success.

    1. If you could do anything with your life what would you do?
    Have a Baby.

    2. If you could invite 3 guests from anytime in history to dinner who would your 3 dinner guests be?
    Jesus, Joseph, and The Apostle John

    3. What do you plan to do once you reach your goal weight?
    Buy New Clothes :bigsmile:

    4. Tell us the thing you are most proud of in your life?
    So Far getting my H.S. Diploma (my family thought I was going to drop-out)

    5. What's the hardest thing you have ever done?
    Excersise .... :bigsmile:

    6. What's your best piece of advice for others for their weight loss journey?
    Decide and commit to loose weight, and you will succeed.

    Kirsti - to get them accurately, It's best if your husband or a friend does them for you with a measuring tape. :flowerforyou:

    Everyone - Make sure you are drinking your water! :flowerforyou:
