    I think there should be more exercise challenges like burn 300 calories a day or lift weights each day also on the food side I think eating low sodium of 1500/day for the week is one to consider.

    Also with a group this big I think it would be cool to have several challenges up and we choose which one we are gonna do for the week since theses are meant to help us along our weight loss journey and we aren't
    T competing for prizes or points and such.

    They could be listed like the 300 calorie burn for week 1 challenge the low sodium eating for week one challenge the miles moved for week one challenge the 10000 step a day for week 2 challenge the 30minute /day cardio challenge for week 2

    Just some ideas to roll around

    I agree with having exercise challenges. Now we need somone to post weekly challenges.

    I'm in! Who is going to make up the challenges?? I once saw where they would do a daily challenge with exercises...squats, situps, pushups...etc. Either way I think this will be fun!!:)

    I'm in but I have to admit I'd have trouble with no flour and clean eating! I like the water, exercise, try new food, etc though!

    I'm in too. I actually love the idea of clean eating, no flour. I'm actually trying really hard to omit 'WHITE" from my diet, such as sugar, flour, salt and rice..

    I'm in, I would lose at a no sugar challenge. But game for everything else. If anyone is making a list we could a challenge where workout twice in one day at least twice during the week. Or try something new--- for those of us who use videos there is fitness blender and YouTube befit. Also anyone looking for challenges there is a wbsite called skinnyyo that is setup for fitness challenges. I'm competing in a group team USA east slim possible lots of members from this site are on there. It's much easier to track group challenges. But that's it, the site is only for fitness challenges

    Okay, how about if we just go with the OP's first suggestion and do: Week 1- No sweets/sugars ( so any candy, cakes, sodas, jiuces etc are out) Happy to run with it if we'd get moving on it!

    Back with an update: here's our first challenge guys: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/840012-challenge-1-no-sweets-sugars
