Anyone up for setting up a challenge for 2012? We could post our SW and GW. Pick a day of the week that everyone has to weigh-in and report their results. Any takers? And by challenge I don't mean competition I mean challenge ourselves to reach our goals.

    I'm thinking set a goal for the amount you want to lose. Weigh in weekly, post results here until you reach your goal. Should you reach it before the end of 2012 you can set another if you'd like. I think it'd be a good way to keep each other encouraged. I'm thinking of setting up another group so that we don't inundate this one with our weekly weigh-ins (thinking out loud). Everyone ok with joining another group?

    You know what? I have issues. I just posted in my status this morning that I'm going to stop obsessing over the scale (rather going by how I look and feel for a while) and this would totally go against my decision (as I suggested we weigh weekly). I'm hiding my scale for a few weeks. Maybe monthly weigh-ins reports would work? Or if you all still want to do weekly that's cool too. I know I sound like I'm a little off but I'm really not. This is just a decision I made this morning (after weighing-in) and I think for my sanity I should stick to it lol.

    I promise you I'm not coocoo for cocoa puffs lol.

    Maybe a calories burned challenge? I don't really weigh myself anymore!

    Happy New Year! I've created a group called MFP DMV 2012 Calories Burned Challenge. Feel free to join it. We will post our goals for calories burned each Monday. Although it's Tuesday we can still post today and then start again on Monday, January 9.

    The group's not coming up in my search. Anyone else having that problem?

    It would probably have helped if I'd made it public. It should be available now. LOL
