Does anybody want to do a fitness buddy system on here? Someone to stay in contact with and stay motivated? If so, reply on here and I can pair everyone up! Or if you already have one or one in mind just post :)

    I like this idea. I was in a fitness group before, but it was more stressful than motivating. We had about 5 or 6 members and a team captain. No one was actually responsive to each others posts though. This idea has potential if people participate :)

    Thanks for the feedback.. I agree.. I was on a group and it worked the same way.. I felt it was just too many people to keep up with :/ Hopefully this will be a good way to keep up with just one! :)

    I like the idea of a buddy system, please include me!!

    also if anyone is looking for a great challenge, check out Sheri869. She is starting a new challenge very soon and her last ones have been super motivating! There are diet and exercise goals each week. It is a team and individual challenge, so that helps hold you accountable!! Everyone is very encouraging!
