Sooo.....random question:
If your are in for doing another challenge when we finish this one, what time frame do you want? Also, do you think our little group should have a snazzy name like so many of the other groups do. (Suggestions greatly appreciated!) :bigsmile:0 -

Vic, I'd like to change my goal to 205 for the end of this challenge. I planned to continue the challenge after the group challenge was over on my own till the end of June as that's when our schools get out here, and knew I could reach Onederland by then. But now that we are talking about the possiblity of another challenge I will be able to finish this one with everybody else, and then get started on our new one.
And I am delighted that we are thinking of doing another one together! I was this thinking how I am enjoying the friends I have "met" in our challenge and I want to continue on with our group. And I've been wondering how a challenge could be done without our wonderful Vic who does our great chart which to me looks like a huge amount of work! (Thank you, thank you!!!)0 -

I think another challenge would be great.
I think 12 weeks would take us from the end of this challenge to the beginning of Sept. I don't know if that may be too long for some, but I am up for another, as I have now regrouped and got my head screwed on straight again.LOL0 -

A full summer-time challenge would be great! For me personally, it would help me keep focused on my weight loss journey , and while there will be more barbecus and summer entertaining to contend with, I'll remember that healthy eating and exercise does not take a holiday.
For a name for the challenge.... hmmm... Summer Sizzle? Or is that already taken? (maybe I got the idea of MFP, I'm not sure lol)0 -
@Bella
Thanks for your kind words Bella...you are so sweet!
@everyone
All of you keep me going and I would love to do another challenge with all of you. Every time I update the chart I am always so excited for your losses. I'm always excited to see missing members return. We have formed such a great group here and I'm so glad to be part of it.0 -

I would definitely be interested in another group after this. Although the scale hasn't moved much I have been a lot more accountable when it comes to meeting the exercise quota of my goal. Like I said losing inches faster than weight.0 -
