    Thanks for doing this, Lorena. WHOO HOO, GO ORANGE!

    Congrats to everyone for an outstanding job.

    Do we have any takers on continuing to move this forward? I'm sure at elast some of us still have weight to lose.

    I'm going to throw this out there in case anyone is interested. I would like to see someone take this over because frankly, I think we all do better when we have motivation from others. I am NOT wanting to take over but If no one else is willing to take this over, I would be willing to do it, but there are conditions.

    1. People would like to commit to this for some defined period of time. (The last weigh in for this round would be June 20). I'm headed out of town shortly thereafter and my life gets really crazy after that.
    2. Weights are gotten to me by Midnight Monday nights. If I don't receive it by midnight, it doesn't get added to the list. For you east coasters, that gives you til 3 AM!
    3. Two weeks of non - receipt of numbers, you are dropped from the list.
    4. If we are still doing this by teams, I need to know the team name, each person's starting weight, current weigh in amount for the week and amt of weight loss.

    My committment:

    1. I will compile the data
    2. Results are posted by Midnight Tuesday night

    My intention isn't to make anyone mad. This is supposed to be fun and motivational, and while I love to be on this site, like all of you, I too have a life, so rather than waiting and waiting and waiting for numbers, if we have a defined cut off and stick to it, we can all know where we stand and get back to the business of supporting each other.

    Please don't respond if its just to be critical. If you're interested, then let's do this.

    If we don't get a whole lot of participation, we may not have teams, just a few of us, but I need to know soon cuz Monday is right around the corner.

    Thought about that, just thought that might get other people outside of this group, since we didn't have a specific title for this group, but I'll try to coral people.

    For those of you who are interested, I have started a new topic pertaining to the continuation of our weight loss challenge. So far, I have heard from 6 other people that are interested in continuing (plus me). On Monday I will post everyone's starting weight. Be thinking about some realistic goal weight that you would like to be at on June 20 and I will post that as well, if you would like.

    That thread can be found here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/228987-continuation-of-149lore-s-weight-loss-challenge
