    So, is each team captain responsible for the challenge of the week. Or will there be one general challenge for everyone?

    I think one general challenge would be best.....should we change it every week?

    I'm not sure if there is an official team yellow or not but if there is I'd love to be on it. Thanks!

    I'm a SAHM to 2 kids 3/12 and 9 months. I'm trying to lose weight and keep my milk supply up which is hard for me. I'm a turbo junkie!

    I was just thinking..... How do you ladies feel about taking a before and after pic... Since tomorrow is our first weigh in I thought we could take a pic of us now and then at the 30 day mark take another and the at 60 take a final pic. What do you ladies think?

    Pics would be cool , Kinda make us more accountable for what we have worked so hard for. :)

    The thought of posting a pic makes me very nervous! Are we talking shorts and t-shirt, or swim wear?? Okay, if everyone else can do it so can I.....ugh!

    Hi ladies,
    So I was gone all day and got home a noticed a big intrest in a new team "yellow" sounds good to me!

    Go team yellow!

    I need to know who the team captain is?
    I will look throught the posts and see who signed up first for it, give me a few minutes...

    Who is this miss.faith??????lol, whatever that was it was weird.

    So you all have read the challenge for this week, I hope.

    The way this will work is there will be a team captain for each team who will report there teams points for the week, this will need to be reported by tuesday night. So team captains get your teams pumped up so you can get all your points!
    On wednesday we will weigh in and the highest weightloss for the week will earn that beloved extra point.

    Team captains I really need your help with originizing all this I didn't realize I would get such a turn out, to think I was only going to form 3 teams to start with. Team captains please report your points on tuesday and then you groups total weight loss wednesday night. I will post the final results on Thursday.

    A pic before and after is a fantastic idea! Scary but a great one!

    The challenges are for all the teams, and yes they will change every week.

    Hey ladies, my hubby is a graphic designer & he is going to work up some little "team blue" "team pink" etc little things to put in our signature...thought it would help us see who's who easier! I will post them here whenever he's done them

    That is a great idea, Thank you!!!

    Okay Ladies since we have our teams we will start with our "Weigh in Wednesdays"

    Our post will read:
    Starting MFP Weight
    Starting SAHMU Weight
    Week 1 Weight
    Goal Weight

    * If you have already lost weight on your journey here at MFP you are welcome to post it here.

    Week 1
    Exercise Challenge(7/20-7/27):
    Cardio: Get out those strollers Ladies!! (if your kids are to big for a stroller, have them come along if they can keep up).
    Walk 2.5- 3.0mph 4 times this week for 45 min. ( I notice alot of you are doing workout videos and if you would rather do those that is okay, just make sure it is 4 times this week to count your point)
    Strength: 25 Squats a day 5 days this week

    Food Challenge(7/20-7/27):
    Kitchens closes at 9:30pm!

    Emotional Challenge(7/20-7/27):
    Post 1 reason you believe you have carried this extra weight around. (try to limit it to just one reason, something that you may need to just get out, it helps to release our emotional baggage along with our weight)

    *Each Team member will receive one point for each challenge they meet this week and your team will earn a bonus point if everyone completes there challenges.
    *A Point will also be awarded to the team with the highest weightloss for the week.

    Post your victories daily and please remember to add up your points for next wednesday.

    Just wanted to pop this up again for all the team captains! Good luck to all!

    Team Orange will need 3 more people to be able to join us and a team captain.

    That is the last team, so I am sorry if you can't make it on this team.

I am very excited that you all have joined me on this challenge, please make sure you are ready to commite to yourself and your team, if you feel you won't be able to do this just let me know before we start tomorrow, please don't leave your team without a member. Remember this is for 60 days.
