edited November 2024 in Motivation and Support
Ok I want to get serious and motivated to meed my fitness goals.

It is around six weeks until Christmas and I want to feel amazing in my party dresses. To keep me motivated I want to invite anyone who needs a bit of accountability and support to join me in getting serious.

So I am proposing six weeks of clean eating and focused exericise. For the first time I am going to make all of my diary open and also give regular updates on my measurements.

Let me know if you want to be part of a supportive group in the run up to Christmas give me an add!

Best wishes,
Marmarsgirl

    Hey! I just re-joined MFP after being really successful with it two years ago, and I'm totally on board with your game plan of six weeks to success! I would love to join your cause and help motivate you (and myself, too!) Let's do this! :smile:

    hi there!

    what kind of accountability works best with you? the kind, hand-holding, forgive you for everything kind? or the tough love kick in the butt kind?
  • I could definitely do with this too! Count me in!

    Careful yoovie, Didn't you just get out of hot-water for talking like this? :D
  • If you're starting a group on here I'd love to join! People could post their weights or measurements weekly. Our ups and downs and great tips. =)

    This sounds great! I am pretty new to the MFP community so not sure how to make a group but I love the idea!

    this is why i check first now! i cant just pep talk to people the way me and my friends like it! some people prefer something different!

  • OK, I just set up a group called 'Six weeks until Christmas Challenge'.... catchy I know!!

    If you can think of a better title, give me a shout.

    In the meantime, add yourself. I have made it semi-private to hopefully avoid any purposefully negative comments etc!!

    You can totally do it. I am looking to drop 10 too. That is 1.5lbs a week. Totally achievable. Feel free to add me and join the group.

    Thanks @Marmarsgirl - I couldn't find a search function under groups, so have been manually scrolling through pages... there are 1000+ pages to look through, so haven't yet found it! :)
