Who wants to be a hot mom-Group 9 (closed group)

Please let me know if anything is wrong. Side Note...I have been doing this new lifestyle for 50 days and only lost 6 lbs. Is that right? This is a lot of work for a little tiny pay off. Somebody help me! What am I doing wrong.

Don't get discouraged. Since you have little to lose, the pounds will probably drop slowly. 1/2 - 1 lb a week is a healthy loss. Your six pound loss is nothing to scoff at. You should be proud. You're getting healthy and fit! Keep it up.

Thanks! I needed that! I am still hanging in there. You are doing fabulous by the way! Great job!

Hi everyone!!

Just wondering if anyone had any ideas on a name for our group? I would like to do a spirit week soon to keep up our spirits. You all have been doing wonderful. It's sad that I will never meet any of you so that we can celebrate when this is over. Keep up the good work!

Hey Joimichele... I thought of a name for our group. How about "Moms on the Move"? We all seem to be pretty active and I thought the name describes us appropriately. I won't be offended if you don't go for the name. Just thought I'd throw it out there.

Also, I work as a graphic designer and can design a logo/banner for us to put in our signatures. I've seen other MFP signatures that include the group that they're in. I could make one up for us as soon as the name is decided.

I hope you all had a great weekend!

I think it is a great idea! Thanks for all of your help! I think we may have lost the rest of our group. I only have your weigh in weight this week. I am concerned. I know Leigh is on vacation. Can't wait to see the logo!

Joimichele, do you want to open the group to recruit more moms? I will send you the logo soon :-)

Hi! Can you please wait until Tuesday night or Wednesday morning to post overall stats. I am unable to get to my computer until Tuesday night. Thanks.

No problem! I'll post the charts tomorrow.

I've noticed you're worried about the members you've lost. We recently combined groups 5 & 7. Group 5's captain was never active, and they only had 3 members who regularly checked in. Group 7 started losing members (one pregnant, one in surgery), and the remaining members had really low weigh-ins. Combining the two groups seems to have really helped motivate them. Would you be interested in joining another group? Let me know, and I'll see if any captains would be willing to let you join.

Is that an option? Do you think I have to ask Chari? Should we combine the group? I have grown close to all of you. I don't know is I want to share :grumble: lol.

I think since we still have at least 5 active members, our group is still alive. If we get down to 3 or less members, maybe we should think about combining. what do you think?

WHO WANTS TO BE A HOT MOM? - GROUP RESULTS, Week 6 (8/29)

Hello, Hot Moms!! Check out the weekly stats below.



We have lost over 200 pounds!!

Here's a quick summary of the past 6 weeks. I re-did the numbers to account for all the late check-ins.



Way to knock it out of the park!! As a group, we lost more pounds this week than the previous 4 weigh-ins! This is going to make a HUGE difference in reaching our goal weights by New Year’s.

Is anyone wondering what happened to Group 5? Their captain hasn’t checked in since August 1, and they only had a couple of members who checked in regularly. Their posts were fewer and coming days apart, and I was afraid we’d lose them. Group 7 “adopted” the active Group 5 members – :flowerforyou: many THANKS to Group 5's captain, wanna_be_fit!!:flowerforyou: And look what happened when the groups joined together!



As a combined group, these ladies are losing more together than they were apart! And they are more active on their group postings as well. Having a larger active group can make a big difference. If you want to see how the other groups are doing, then check out their threads below.

Have a great week, Hot Moms!!

Hey Joimichele. What do you think about the new logo? See my siggy below...

joimichele

I love it! Great job! Thanks so much!

Hi everyone! Here is this weeks weigh in. Also, another piece of business: dc_amaryllis we now have a logo and a group name. If possible we can all apply the logo to our signature. After this weeks results from koeniginhla, we will start on a new thread labeled Mom on the Move (Group 9 closed group). Please take some time to send some encouragement from members that we have not had any updates from in a while. Lastly, the week of September 12, will begin our spirit week. Please email me ideas or post ideas on the new thread. I will post a calender on Friday, September 9. Thanks so much.

Thanks Joimichele. I'm looking forward to our Spirit week.
For those who want to add the logo to your signature, please message me and I will email you the link.

WHO WANTS TO BE A HOT MOM? - GROUP RESULTS, Week 7 (9/5)

Hello, Hot Moms!! Check out the weekly stats below.



Here's a quick summary of the past 7 weeks.



After 7 weeks, we have a solid number of moms checking in.

Did any of you realize that we crossed the quarter mark on August 29th? We are more than 25% through this challenge!! The time is flying fast! In order to reach our goal weights, we need to remember that EVERY DAY counts. Right now, there are 115 days left in this challenge. Let’s keep moving and losing!

Next week, on our 8-week mark, I’ll run another individual assessment to see how many members are on track to reach their December 31st goal weights.

Have a great week, Hot Moms!!
