    I'm also game for a facebook group. I know that cuts down on some privacy, but I believe we are all here to support each other, and I'll take it however I can get it! =)

    So far I'm seeing a lot more votes for a New Thread. When I post the updated chart tonight don't be surprised if it is on a new thread with a very similar name. ;)

    Of course i'll still keep track of the votes until it is time to post charts. Keep up the great work everybody!

    THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: Do not step on the scale more than twice this week.

    Hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen...this is going to be a tough one. :devil:


    We all know that our weight fluctuates throughout the day and even over the week. Sometimes we get so caught up on weighing-in that we forget about that. Some of us might feel complelled to weigh ourselves all day every day and might get discouraged by what the scale says if it wasn't as good as it was the day before. Felicia mentioned earlier that she does weigh-ins for MFP on one day and weigh-ins for this challenge on another day. I do the same thing. :)

    My challenge to you is to only weigh-in twice this week. I'll be weighing-in on Mondays (for MFP and another challenge I'm doing) and on Thursdays (for my Hot Mama's meetings and this challenge).

    Also, I highly suggest weighing in at the same time under the same conditions.
    Ex: First thing in the morning after using the bathroom.

    BEST WISHES TO YOU ALL. Hope our first official challenge goes well. :tongue:

    Just saw this...Already got on the scale this morning so I guess that's 1 for me. My 2nd weigh in for the week will be Friday (my "official" weigh in day)

    I think a new thread is a good idea, although it would be nice if you could link the new threads to the previous ones.
    So I am guessing the new thread will be 11 Weeks Till Summer Challenge...LOL that would make it easier to follow, kind of like a count down to the goal weight we all have set :bigsmile:
