edited January 5 in Motivation and Support
I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this but I'll give it a shot. I am so close to my goal. However I haven't been working out lately and I thought that if there was a challenge I would get back on the wagon and work out. Is anybody interested in doing a challenge? I was thinking about a 16 week challenge. I'm not sure when it would start. I guess it would depend on if there were actual interest in the challenge. Let me know if anybody is interested.

    I'd like to know a little more on how the challenge would work, but I'm definitely in need for some new motivation!

    I would ask that people contribute a $10 gift card so at the end there would be a prize for the person that lost the most amount of weight. I will track everybody's weight.

    I would love a challenge, but not till Jan. Having surgery next week and taking a few weeks off exercise.

    Ok, I have the first person's information. I know one person wants to start in January. Are there any others that would like to start then, or would the consensus be to start now?

    Kerrioto, in the beginning I will collect a $10 from everybody. It will go for 16 weeks and at the end of the challenge the person with the highest percentage of weight loss will win all the gift cards. I will also require a picture of everybody in the beginning as well as a picture of the scale. Every 4 weeks I will require a picture of the scale, just to keep everybody honest. If you are interested, please email me to j_lizie_g@me.com
