    For the Blue team-We've dwindled down to a core group of "friends" we all have the same goals - we all want to be healthy. We share our successes and failures with each other. We encourage each other. We weigh in once a week - once in a while we've thrown out some challenges to each other - it's a group to be accountable to and get support from.

    :blushing: :bigsmile: Now I'm feeling all smurfy and blue inside - :heart: :laugh:

    I have friends!?!?!?!

    I think I used to be a blue team....not sure if this is the same one or not.
    Anyway I fell off the diet and fitness wagon and quickly gained back all the weight that I lost using MFP.
    I'm officially climbing back on the wagon and would like to be back on the blue team.

    Thanks,
    Tammi

    I'm new here, can you explain what this is for? Sorry.

    It's just a group of us that call ourselves a 'team'. We check in with each other once a week and pretty much everyday discuss things from health and fitness, to how well we're doing with our goals, all the way to issues with relationships and motivation. Just a good group of people trying to help eachother succeed. :flowerforyou:

    Count me in! I need the accountability. My starting weight is 142. Can't weight for this group to start.

    If anyone is interested in excerising with me, I'm starting the body for life challenge next week. People can join up at anytime. Nice to have fitness pals not just weight loss!

    Is there a way to "tag" a thread, kind of make it come up when you log in, so you don't have to spend forever looking for it?

    Mind if I join too? I need some extra motivation!! The sweets have been calling me again :grumble: My current weight is 178 my goal is 145. I guess I just need more accountability than myself. I am not always a good taskmaster when it comes to me anyway. :wink:

    When you click on Community in the tabs up top, and then 'My Topics' in the section right under it, it will be there. It should always be in there towards the top. Once we start up there will be a new thread each week, and as you in you post in the thread it will be put in 'My Topics'. The thread stays pretty active every day so it shouldn't fall off your list until the week is over. Hope all that made sense. I always post the link to the next thread at the end of the week, so everyone can find it. :flowerforyou:

    may I join too? :smile:

    I'm really going to need this. The day it starts is the day I leave for our vacation to Florida. They have internet in at least one of the campgrounds we're going to stay in....so that's good!

    My current weight is 140.2lbs. My goal is to be between 125 and 128lbs.

    Thanks for the heads up. I guess that's one of a million things I have figured out about this site. I look forward to being on this team. Y'all seem very motivated and dedicated. I guess the next thing I need help with is figuring out how you take someone else's comment and respond directly to it.
