How can join a challenge team to help me out?

I keep seeing groups ( some of which are closed) of challenge / support . I feel as if I would do so much better if I was checking in directly with the same group (smaller than general posting). For me it is a different type of support level and a different set of expectations.
Thanks for any advice and direction.

    Agreed, which is why I joined the 700s. Why not start your own group?

    Feel free to add me! I also have a support group and we do biweekly challenges. We're starting up a new set of challenges this upcoming Tuesday. Group is primarily women, but there are some guys as well.

    Send a message to the team leaders. Let them know what you just posted. If someone drops out of their group they should let you know. It's kind of like being on a waiting list. Good luck.

    It helps me because I feel badly if I let my team members down... it is extra accountability for me.

    I love the challenges - they keep me focused and motivated. And if I have a bad week, the other members are there for moral support.

    Do a forum search for a topic that interests you and see what comes up. There might be a challenge whose members have that same interest. Email the leader or someone else in the group and see if you can join!

    Good luck to you!

    I have been looking for a small group, too. I joined a Christmas Challenge, but it is very big. Exercise challenges are my favorite. I just finished a 30DS challenge, and I had huge results. I felt like I HAD to do it....like I was going to get in trouble if I didn't. Lol! If you start a new thread, I will join.
