Hi guys, I had an idea for a fitness challenge. I would be from July 1 to Dec 31 (6 months) where the challenge is to lose 10% of our body weight by Dec 31. We would use a combination of My FitnessPal to track our daily eating diaries and a Facebook group to post our monthly weigh-in photos of ourselves on a scale. We can keep each other motivated and accountable. Losing 10% of your body weight is super attainable and we can support each other along the way.

If interested, add me as a friend on MFP and send me a direct msg with your name on Facebook so I can add you to that group as well.

    Why 10% and why 6 months? These numbers wouldn't make sense for many people.

    I saw a challenge on dietbet that had those figures so I wanted to recreate a challenge that does not involve money. So I am looking for people who think this will work for them to motivate them to kickstart their weight loss journey or finish it!

    Then maybe this challenge isn't for you?
