    Ya I had no idea it would take off like this, a few nights ago I was new here looking for a challenge to join, I didn't see one that was for me so I decided to start my own and who new it would become this great group of amazing ladies.

    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!

    Tigertown wants in for Team Orange..........here are the challenges once again, ladies!

    I am going to have the team captains start a thread for each team but the final results will be posted here.

    Team captains please start a thread for your team so we can keep up with our teams a little easier, and of course ladies we should post on the other team threads and give support to eachother.

    Hi tigertown11 welcome to team Orange, would you like to be the captain?

    i'm not sure if I want to be captain, I'm kinda not knowing what I am doing!
    I got the challenge, but is there a head master challenge person I would report my weekly team progress too?
    I guess I could do it, i would be held more accountable to do it.
    sure.. I guess I will be captain!

    *Team Captains*

    I think with so many teams we will have to have seperate team threads, this is a bummer because I want to read all about everyones sucess but there is a limit to 500 posts per thread and we will surpass that to fast.

    We will just have to remember to be supportive to the other teams as well as our own.

    Make sure you post (closed) on your topic or you may get alot of other mfp's wanting to join your thread. I wish we could but I think we have plenty of mommies at this point.

    Please remember to repost the weeks challenge on your thread.

    Good Luck everyone!

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

    Just for clarification - Is the Week 1 Weight the same at our Starting SAHMU Weight? Also the goal weight is after the challenges or our overall goal weight?

    Some of the people here have been on MFP for awhile so I want them to be proud of what they have lost already but if you are new here then yes it would be the same.

    Goal weight is your final goal weight
