Introduction to the Challenge

lem_orc29

I would love to TRY both. Now notice I am saying TRY because I am not sure what I am getting myself into! lol!!

^This. I say bonus points for those that complete both is a good idea...I may not be able to do it, but if someone can, surely they've earned a couple extra points!

OK, I am ready!!! Just got back from an appt. for Cool Sculpting...I will not spend $5,000 to loose 20% to 30% of my belly when I lost 35 lbs this year with diet and exercise!! So I have another 40 to go and I already know I can. So thank you for the UWFC I am ready!:happy:

Hi! I would like to lose 20lbs....I used to do alot of racing, got diagnosed with hypothyroidism, celiac disease, and last week I went to urgent care for tendinitis of my hip. Needless to say, I want to lose the weight to get back to my healthy self; the person I recognize again.

I love the idea of short term goals to work on. I am definately in the "light exerciser" group. Totally interested in getting strong!

Momwasix

hi I'm momwasix and glad i found this group. I needed something that is going to make me accountable as well as supportive. I've been seeing that most group on here either not as active which in return causes for lack of support. So I'm looking forward to doing these challenges and if any ideas needed i have plenty.

Hernandowoman

New to group stuff but this sounds exciting! My new approach is to shape up what I have. I have been at the same weight I set a goal for nearly 5 years ago! Talk about trying to get the last 5 off! It's not always about the numbers but how we feel. Yay!! Can't wait for Sunday instructions!

rpillen

thanks for starting this. I have lost 38 lbs and have been at a plateau since the beginning of september just bouncing around with a few lbs back and forth. I am trying to change up my exercise but having a hard time deciding what to do. I look forward to the challenge and hope it's what i need to get the last few lbs off!

carlsoda

Thanks for starting this group - it sounds fun and full of activity from members! I don't have a lot to lose, less than 10 lbs but need help getting there! I love to exercise, so the challenges should be great. I have issues with sugar and of course this time of the year doesn't help..it's dark and cold and treats EVERYWHERE already

Morning. I wouldn't mind joing this fab sounding group! :happy:

I'm nearly at goal but now comes the hard part...maintenance! I love my exercise but challenges are a great way to keep me interested as I find I can get bored of the same things all the time.

I love that it this runs through Christmas as well because I am determined to enjoy myself but not go overboard and exercise will help that.

I am happy with however you want to set it up considering I know the time and effort it takes to run these sort of challenges...what with spreadsheets etc!

I need the motivation and short term goals like a weekly challenge may be the key for me. I tend to be more yoga zen than cardio queen so I need to push out of my comfort zones.

whallon

Hi! My name is Sara, and I think the idea of the weekly challenge is great!

I have a lot of weight to loose. I have started my MFP journey the beginning of September, so I am fairly new, but I have been having success with both food changes and exercising, but bringing interest and variety to my exercise would be great! lol

Dory_42

I just joined as I need something to boost my motivation again to get back into a routine, especially while my fencing club is on a 7 week summer holiday. Luckily summer means ocean swims and beach walks!
