    Just wanted to let everyone know that we will have a July challenge. I am just trying to decide if I want one more month of closed group or if I am ready to tackle the craziness of opening it back up....thoughts?

    I am all for a July challenge. I think you should keep it closed again. You are a new mother and I know it's a LOT so don't feel bad at all. There are tons of other challenges on these forums. So there are other opportunities for people to get/stay motivated.

    Oh and I think it's much easier to navigate through the pages and responses with less people. I got "lost" last month lol :)

    I am in it for July too, I think you should keep it closed because of your new family addition you don't want to eat from a platter but more from a plate in all areas of your life. Don't overdo it, try to enjoy your new addition.

    Count me in for July! Maybe keep it closed for one more month and you can evaluate in July to see if opening it in August is doable for you.

    I want to join in July as well! Give yourself an extra month off. You have gone beyond the call of duty doing this right after your baby as it is.

    I would say open the group for new challengers. You may want to limit the number of new challengers so it won't be overwhelming. I like how you state that you would "drop" a participant for not updating their weight for the week. Ultimately, it is up to how much you can handle as your family is growing. I admire that you have found the "extra" time to post the excel spreadsheet with all those names. Keep up the great work!!!!

    I think it's better I post today because weekends I sometimes don't get a chance to get on my computer. I met my goal and am happy I went a little past it. I'm ready for July! And hope to be down 10 more pounds. Good job to everyone for whatever losses they achieved in June! Have a great weekend everyone. :)

    I would like in for July as well. This challenge is the only thing that kept me going this month.
    I think you should keep it closed and enjoy your baby. It's a ton of work for you to do.
