    facebook was just an idea...since there are only 10 of us using this...should be easy to keep using this :)

    Not sure I'm a fan of the facebook idea... I try to keep facebook as private as possible. I'm one of those people who is really paranoid on facebook -- also, my employer is really strict about what we can/can't put on there. I'd rather stick to MFP for MFP stuff.

    No idea for the team name. I'm cool with whatever. I'll try to come up with some ideas today.

    I think we can stick with this. Maybe we could just create a new thread each week.

    i hate to do this to you guys but i am going to back out of the team challenge....there were a few others from my labor day challenge that expressed interest in being on this new team challenge....

    i am sad to do it but i am overwhelmed right now with work and the kids and home and my workouts and all the other stuff going on....i am still committed to my health and fitness, i just do not want to commit to helping a team when i can not guarantee i can give it my all...that is the kinda person i am fortunately or unfortunately...all or nothing, i try not to do things half way...

    so lauren or beck please look at the thread labor day challenge and see if you can pick up one more member....i'll still send you the link to my spreadsheet you can make your own...good luck to you guys and i'll see you around MFP still.....

    Hi all - thanks so much for letting me join your team! My name is Megan (Meg) and I'm in grad school so my schedule . I'm so excited about this challenge because I feel like it will really help with motivation and such an amazing team like you lovely ladies! I'm fine with any team name. I actually like Amazons, but I understand the "large" connotation. I really liked Flab Kickers Unite (FKU) as well although maybe people will get the wrong idea...I'm pretty easy going so whatever you guys want!

    Can't wait to get to know you all better!!

    i can't wait to get this started! my weight is fluctuating so bad right now i just need to get it in check. blah. BUT i have decided officially that i am NOT going over calories until my birthday (sept 17th), so that's 24 days. i've never gone that long without going over. i enlisted the help of my bf and he said he's more than happy to help me stay on track (especially at parties and stuff where all i want to do is eat/drink). do any of you have someone who supports you day-in day-out (other than people on MFP)? i've never asked anyone for help (i always feel like i can do things alone, which obviously hasn't been working), so i'm kind of nervous...

    Great goal! And sweet of your bf to help you out. I don't really have any support besides my MFP friends...but that seems to work for me. My cousin is on here though and she does keep an eye on me. :) I can't wait to get this challenge started either!

    I'm not too picky about a name...however I think I've already seen Weapons of Mass Reduction floating around on the message boards so that might not be a good choice...other than that, anything is fine with me. You guys have come up with some awesome suggestions.

    I am going to compile all the suggested team names tomorrow morning so please post any additional names by the end of today. I will post all the suggested names tomorrow around 10 (when i get into work), then we can vote on what names we like. I will tally the votes and will post friday which name we will use. :)

    Super excited to be on a team with all of you!

    I looked and found these. They go more with the tribal idea. We could add Warriors... Tribe to any?

    ANJU : Indian female name means Blessings; Inconquerable Anju

    NISHI : Indian female name meaning Getting stronger Nishi

    ZAAFIRA : Indian female name meaning Victorious; Successful Zaafira

    I like Nishi or Zaafira Warriors. It's more in keeping with the Tribal theme and I like the meanings behind the name.
