Ok, had a great idea from another post from a mom who was looking for other mom friends....
AND, I used the search tool here and there isn't already a "Sexy Mama" group....
So.... If you're a mom (not discriminating here, just want to create a support group for those in the same place in life <disclaimer for the MFP overly sensitive community>) and you are looking for a support group with weekly weigh-ins, challenges, support, motivation, fun, humor, etc.... Then this will be an awesome group!!!!
I would LOVE to start this group... I started a group on MFP a LONG while ago and it was very successful and went for 2 years strong... Just recently it died :sad: I would LOVE to have another MFP group baby!!! :bigsmile: So, who's with me?

YAY!!! You guys are FAST! I LOVE it!!!!!!
Just to set up some "rules" to make it easy on us....
We can do introductions here on this thread and get to know each other a bit... Then, Monday, we can start our "Official Thread"... We can start the thread by titling it "SEXY MAMAS (and the date)" Then it will be easy for us to find...
We can put our start weight (SW) our last weigh-in weight (LW) and our current weight (CW) to help us easily see our losses!!
I have lost over 25lbs, but Monday, I will use THAT weigh-in weight as my START WEIGHT for SEXY MAMAS... So, we can all start out at 0 so to speak... I think this will be fun!!! That way, we are all starting at the "same point" ....
We can do either weekly challenges or monthly challenges...whatever you ladies would like to do.... From my experiences, monthly works better!! It is easier to stay on top of the thread... A new thread every week can start to get hard to keep up with, but if we do the same thread for a month, it is a little bit easier...
What are some challenges that you guys would like to see? What is it that you seem to need more accountability/motivation with?
Also, I would LOVE for us to do before and after pics because that is sooooo freakin' encouraging and motivational... So, let's all take a before pic for Monday.... we don't HAVE to share it until we are ready to add our after or "in process" pic, but lets take one so we will have one to post for comparison
So, what do you guys think?0 -
Sounds great!0

Just keep up with the posts and make sure you check in with the group as regularly as possible

Awesome!!!
Workout challenges - Diet (what you are eating and drinking) challenges... We may even do mini group challenges, if those of you would like to do that (dividing up into mini groups for certain challenges).... What kind of challenges would you like to see?I'm in!

So, what do you guys think? I think monthly challenges would be good. I found it hard to keep up with weekly challenges that I've been in. We could do a (x ounces of water per week) challenge, an (x amount of calories burned per week), or even exercise specific ones (crunches, pushups, etc).
As for my intro...My name is Nicole. I'm 29 years old and from Texas. I'm married and I have two kids, a son that is almost 4 and a daughter that is almost 2. My main goal is to stay motivated and stay on track with workouts.0 -
Count me in for this! Mother & grandmother! Gonna be sexy before spring!0

Me too!0

let's do it!0

One BIG thing is make sure you MAKE THIS GROUP YOUR GROUP!!!! Own it!!! Take part!!! Participate and let us know where you are on your journey... It makes for a more successful journey when you take advantage of the motivation and accountability here at MFP... There are so many people that really want to see you succeed... but we can't motivate and encourage you if you don't let us know what is going on... So, even when you don't feel like checking in... do it.. and let us know what is going on with you that week.... That has been the thing that helped me the most...
I lost over 40lbs with my June Starters group here on MFP... then I had an injury and ended up gaining so much of that back, but it was when I was taking advantage of the love/support/motivation here on MFP that I was doing my best!!!! This is something I have learned by trial and error!!! So, please... believe me on this one!!
It's not MY group because I 'started' it... It's OUR group!!! so, don't ever feel like you can't make suggestions and such... Another thing I learned from the June Starters group...
I will need at least one other person to help me "MODERATE" the group... We will post the challenge for the week or month, but you guys will be the ones telling us what you want to do... WE can do this by email votes and what-not... It can be a handful to co-moderate a group... so, let me know if you have the time and/or energy to do this... if you are interested, please friend me and shoot me an email... Having moderators just keep things flowing better and keeps it organized.... It doesn't mean anything other than that!
So, shoot me some ideas ladies!! I can't wait for the first post Monday!!!!
It's also a good idea to add others from the group to your friends' list here on MFP... helps with motivation and support to be able to shoot them an email or comment on their wall from time to time....
Feel free to add me... please put "SExy Mama Group" in the comment section so I will know you are in the group! 0 -
Oh.. and I like this little glittery sexy mama icon I found... I think I'll put it in my signature to identify me as a SEXY MAMA!! Feel free to do the same!! Group Pride!! :laugh: <- be sure to change the 0

So Down to be a sexy mama!0
