    The challenge is to see which team can lose the most calories. You can lose them anyway you choose.

    It depends on how many people are interested. The more, the better.

    Great! There's about 9 of us so far. We need atleast 15 people in order to start so that will give us 3 groups of 5. The more people we have the better it will be though so if you have any friends that may want to participate send them this way :)

    There is plenty of room for everyone! The amount of people allowed is unlimited, we all need the motivation. :) Once I know who all wants to participate I will send invites out to the group.

    I'm in!! How will you/we determine the teams? Maybe we could try to divy up the number of people who have sedentary --> active daily lifestyles (desk jobs, vs. bike messengers) between the groups so each team has a pretty good shot. :)

    Edit: And, I'm assuming we'll do it based on calories burned, not "unused" calories? That'll encourage us to work hard, rather than eat less! (Personally I already struggle with reaching my daily goals, and have about 300-600 unused cals by the end of each day! Which I know is a big no-no, but I don't want to have to splurge on unhealthy things just to reach my target! Long story short, if we did it based on "unused" cals, I'd be a pretty good teammate but not that healthy!) ;)
