Challenge/Support Group Looking for New Members

Options
I have been a member of a challenge/ support group for awhile now. Unfortunately, we have lost quite a few members due to life circumstances. We are currently looking to add new members to motivate and re-energize our group.

A little bit about the group:

We have weekly weigh ins and weekly challenges.
We chat a lot throughout the week about weight loss things and life in general.
The group is called H.E.L.D. Together because it revolves around 4 categories necessary for weight loss: Hydration, Exercise, Lifestyle, and Diet.
The group is private which encourages openness and honesty.


Who we are looking for:

Women only
Needing to lose at least 25 pounds
Between the ages of 25-50 (most of us are working mothers)
Preferably in North America, so we are in similar time zones and use similar units of measurement
We are looking to add 10-12 new members


If you are interested or would like to know more about the group, please send me a PM. I will say upfront that we are going to be selective in finding members that we think will mesh well with the couple of people we still have left from our old group. If your profile is not open and public, please tell me something about yourself. I will send an invite to new members and I will post here when the group is closed.

Good luck to everyone in their weight loss journey

    Hi addiec1 this group sound awesome I would love to have support of a group to continue on the right track. I am 26 years old just had my little girl 8 mths ago and am trying to loose the baby weight plus a little more. I started this app about a week ago at 180 and have lost 3 pounds since. This is the heaviest I've ever been my goal is to get back to 150 where i originally was...I have a full time job and come home to my husband and four year old son who love to snack. I am consistently on this app monitoring my calories and encouraging others.. I would to have a support group who's on here daily.

    Sounds great! But I've only got 8-10lbs left so I guess that rules me out :(
