Hi! My name is Kristen and I host the "Thin In My Skin!" challenge. I have been the host for three long term challenges, here on MFP, and now it's time to get ready for the next one! This next challenge is "Ready to Rock it!" and goes for 12 weeks. It is from July 2nd to October 1st. Our weigh ins will be on Mondays and need to be in by noon PST. If your weigh in is not posted by that time, it will not be on that week's chart. If Friday, Saturday, or Sunday is better for you to weigh in... no problem. Just make sure to use the same day every week. We will have at least one mini challenge every week. After the first week, it will be given by one of our biggest losers. If you don't want to do the challenges, no problem. Here is the format that we'll use for the weigh ins.

Name/ real name:

Current Weight:
Challenge Goal Weight:

07/02:
07/09:
07/16:
07/23:
08/06: <<<mini goal weight>>>
08/13:
08/20:
08/27:
09/03: <<<mini goal weight>>>
09/10:
09/17:
09/24:
10/01: <<<challenge goal weight>>>

You will post this format, with your new weigh in, every week (on the thread). Please always use the format, to make it easier for me to find you on my chart. :-) If you don't want to set mini goals, that's up to you. I'm a really informal host. The thread will be pretty easy going, with a great group of people posting and supporting each other along our weight loss journey. We won't have pressure here. One negative... If you miss 3 weigh ins in a row, you will be dropped from the chart that third week. If you'd like to join, welcome! For now, please state how much weight you'd like to lose over our 12 week period so that I know what group to put you in. :-) You do not need to use the above format until our first official weigh in on July 2nd.

If you'd like to get an idea of how my challenges are, please do some reading here:

Again... Welcome!

Kristen

P.S. Here is a sample of how our weekly chart will look.

One last thing... This challenge will be closed once we reach 130 people.

    I am going to give this a go! I've not seen the scale move in about 2.5 weeks (although I'm losing inches) and I like the idea of becoming more involved with MFP, aside from logging and blogging!

    Please feel free to hold my hand like a small child & walk me through this if I've done/do things incorrectly.

    Happy to meet you all!

    I'm in since I didn't do so hot at the previous challenge... time to get my head back in the game! I'll try for 15 lbs. KC, you ROCK! I don't think you hear it enough, especially from me. You are such a motivation and I apologize for being so absent for these past few weeks. Let's rock it! :drinker:
