Pound for Pound Challenge

For every pound you pledge to lose through May 31, 2011, the Pound For Pound Challenge will donate 11¢ to Feeding America® — enough to secure one pound of groceries on behalf of local food banks.

I've created a team on the Pound for Pound Challenge website, and would LOVE for you to join me in fighting hunger!

My team's name is Motivation. We are just THREE members away from 100. Would LOVE to see our team grow and grow and grow -- the more team members, the more effective we can be at fighting hunger. Will you join us??

Click on the "Pledge" tab, and it will give you the two options of "Join a Team" or "Pledge Pounds".

Click on "Join A Team".

You should then be able to click on "Join Team" next to Motivation and it will open another window that will give you the option of "Change Teams" or "Continue Pledging".

Follow the directions under "Continue Pledging" to register and pledge.

Also, join team Motivation's Facebook group for support, encouragement, check-in and... well, Motivation, of course!

Thank you!!!

    Helen, thank you for joining and welcome to the team!!

    When you're on any one of the MFP 'Community' pages (forum posts, etc.), just a little less than halfway down the page, you'll see these links: 'Home', 'Recent Posts', 'My Topics', 'Signature' and 'Search'. Click on 'Signature' and it will take you to a page where you can edit the message (signature) that appears at the end of each forum post you start or reply to. Hope this helps! :)
