Take a one week challenge?!

Hi All,

I'm trying something new. I've just created a group called "one week". I'm looking for people who are interested in being seriously accountable just for 5 simple days. I know this is a long term journey but sometimes I find it helpful to have short, super focused, bursts.

The idea is that from Monday - Friday (March 18 - 22) you commit to logging in every day, eating under your calorie totals and to doing some exercise every single day. The point of the group is not just random back slapping. If you join please be prepared to be honest and to administer verbal butt kickings if people (especially me) don't live up to their commitment.

Interested? Go join up!

Like I said I've never tried this before but I figured it can't hurt.

    Great. You need to actually go to "Groups" and find the group and join it.

    My plan (although I'm not quite sure how it works) is to close the group once there's about 10 people in it. Anymore than that and it becomes too hard to keep track of everyone.

    So go join up!

    Thanks everyone. The group got to 10 members so I've made it private now.

    Sorry to anyone else who wanted to join but I want to try and keep in manageable so i can actually interact with all the members.

    Anyone else who thinks this sounds good feel free to copy my idea and start your own group. It only took me about 10 minutes to get 10 members so I think there's a lot of people out there who'd be interested in this kind of thing.

    Good luck to all.

    Thank you Xiaolongbao's for starting this. I have kind reached a diet blah period and hopefully this will keep me on track. I have went and made my diary open to friends now - not sure if that will include groups I have joined but I am putting myself out there on MFP.
