Should we form a group?
I know some have suggested it in the past and I have resisted - I like the infomalness of just a regular posting and people can come and go every month as they want.
But there are times the posting can get lost in all of the other post on the message baord
So I was looking for thoughts on if we should be a group. Should it be a new group of every month or just one that we sign up for and is permanent?
I'm fine either way. I have noticed though, in groups that I've been in, that there are many members, and only a handful posting. Few, if any, new people join in and start posting. Also, the group threads never show up in that box of "recent posts" on the right side of the home page. That box is how I found this challenge.
I'd rather leave it as a thread.....it's easy for me to find among my topics (I only post on four different threads). I agree with what clover said.....I've been in groups with over 100 members and only 5 people posting.0 -

9 - 5,618 Busy with work; body struggling with the 4.5 hour time difference between here and Oregon.
10 - 3,613 Busy with work
11 - 3,502 Feeling lousy
12 - 20,186 Trying to snap out of funk by hitting the gym; hoping it doesn't hit me back…
13 - 3,272 Still not feeling great
14 - 15,166 Feeling much better; go to gym.
15 - 8,000 Went for a long walk and run with dog, then realized I had forgotten to take my Fitbit (pedometer). Grrr!

New goals:
400,000 steps for August.

You have lots of days well over 10,000. And vacations are often tougher for tracking steps and or even getting many steps in. Driving 16 hours it amazing you got as many steps in as you did!0 -
