    Okay this is the ONLY week I am contacting people who have signed up and have not posted their weight. The only reason I have decided to do this is to make sure they know that I do have them down for participating in this challenge. Right now we have 176 members signed up. Of those 48 have not given me their starting and week 1's weight. I have another 44 people who still have not posted their week 1's weight. With me only being able to contact 5 new users every 10 min. You can figure how long it will take me to contact each and everyone of these people. That is a total of 92 people I need something from which will take me about 19 different sessions for about a total of a little over 3 hours non stop.

    I think you ROCK for managing this challenge. You are a generous and kind soul to handle so many people. And you're motivating ALL of us. :flowerforyou:

    I agree. you are amazing to do this. But like you said - make this the " only " time and that's it. You shouldn't be baby sitting anyone - serious p eople- comitted people- will remember where they signed up and will report on time. I'm so happy you are doing this , it gives me a motivation and a short term focus .. i have a " big picture goal " but this is helping me to break it down a little more .. appreciate all you are doing - but please don't stay at the comp that long- you need to get your exercise and your work done FOR YOURSELF .. nobody has " extra " t ime .. i just don't want you to miss out on your workouts and food preperation because you are contacting that many people and staying at the comp that long. (just my opinion and maybe because i don't want you to get exhausted and tired from managing this and than maybe stop it , it would be a big loss for us that are comittet to this topic )

    Hope it's ok for me to join - I was on a different July Challenge thread, but no one seems to be keeping up with that one. Anyway, I just joined MFP on July 1 so I know my start weight.

    July 1: 170
    July 8: 168

    Okay I have contacted everyone I can today. I forgot the rule about only 25 new people in one day:( Please when I post the database again check your log in name to make sure I have it correctly. I have tried to contact a few others but they told me that the user idea was not correct.

    I'm really excited to see how much weight the group lost as a whole. I saw the posts coming in and was just amazed at how much everyone was down after only a week.

    We. Are. Awesome. Keep it up, group!

    It is amazing to see. In June we had a total of just 28 people who finished the challenged out of over 100. (By finishing I mean weight in every week). Week 1 we lost 79; week2 - 47' week 3 - 13, week 4 - 51 for a grand total of 192. I think we did really good for such a small group.

    Not as great as I would like but I'll take it since the 4th of July was diasterous to my diet and exercise!

    I messed this up my starting weight was 210 not 200. I must have typed it in wrong...opps
