    I did the july challenge and came up at tad short so HECK YES I wanna do the Aug challenge. This gives me something to work towards and seems like I need these type of challenges. Hold me accountable. LOL

    Hi, I'm in! Friend request sent. Red team, if I'm reading the instructions right.

    I'm going on vacation for part of August (visiting family) and need some incentive to stay physically active and make decent choices while I'm away from my own kitchen. I definitely don't want to lose ground, and I want to continue to make progress!

    This is an open group -- you can enter whenever you find us. We roll with 3 team captains.

    Tiffypooh2u -- A-H -- Team Blue
    Jrdoty8986 -- I-P -- Team Red
    SommerJo -- Q-Z -- Team Purple

    They way it works --- Based on your Username -- send a friend request to the Team Captain who's got your letter. Make sure you include your starting weight. The Team Captain will add you to the chart. On Fridays (8/5,8/12,8/19,8/26) send your current weight to your Captain by message. Our Final Weigh in will be 8/31 - I know it's a Wednesday -- but that'll give us a few extra days to work towards the goal.


    I'm reposting the team information and directions :) I have a couple people that friend requested me -- I just want to make sure they get to the right team :) I will try to get a message to you each tomorrow as well :)

    I have been browsing this website for months and I am just now realizing that I wont stay on point unless I reach out for others with a common goal. I would love to take this challenge in August. My current weight is 286, I just want to be healthy!!

    I have sent in my request to Team Red! Im in it to win it! :happy: :happy:

    You're all on the red team, and I think I have most of you already, but if you haven't done so, send me a message with your starting weight!

    When you "bump" a post, it puts it in your "My Topics" tab so you can easily find it later.

    I'm 57 and need to lose 50lbs. I'm currently weighing 220lbs. I'm 5 feet 8 in. so I'm trying to get to 170lbs I am joining this and according to my name I'm teamed up with Tiffypooh2u on the blue team. I'm not sure how this works so if someone could give me a little information I'd really appreciate some advice. Betty

    Hey Betty. I'm Rosie. We're both in team Blue. You need to send Tiffypooh2u a friend request and let her know what your starting weight is then you don't need to mail her again untill next week with your current weight for that date. That way she'll be able to post how much we've all lost! Good luck for this week and feel free to add me as friend :-)
