in Motivation and Support
If you're familiar with the Diamonds in the Rough challenge, this is a part of it. Because of the interest in the challenge, the name has been changed to the Diamond Challenge, with one group being Diamonds in the Rough, and the other group being Diamond Dolls. This is to allow more people to join up for the challenge!

This is only the sign up for Diamond Dolls, so if you're looking to join the other team for Round 3, keep an eye out next week for the sign ups for Diamonds in the Rough.

Here are the expectations of this 7-week challenge!

Diamond Challenge Expectations (as graciously explained by miss_jamaica):
1. Send your partner a message daily, writing as much as possible.
2. Write on the DITR forum daily.
3. Visit the DITR profile page regularly for updates.
4. Contribute a Question of the Day on your assigned days.
5. Submit your weekly weigh-in using the link in your inbox.
6. SUPPORT, SUPPORT, SUPPORT! Add each other as friends! Invite each other over for tea or healthy lunch! We’re only as strong as our support for one another!


There are more details, but the main ones are to weigh in every week, and to participate!
If you're interested, please provide the following in a reply to this thread, I am only accepting 30 ladies:

1. Name/Username/Nickname
2. Your End of the Round (7 week) Weight Loss Goal
3. Why you'd like to join the DiamondDolls Team in the Diamond Challenge.


We should be starting the challenge in two weeks from this sign up, but I'll have a date for members relatively soon! Expect an Friend Add from me when accepted.

    3. I have hit a plateau and could use an extra buddy to push me over the edge. I lost my first 19lbs easy, but had a stressful week and am having trouble getting back in the groove. However, even while stressing & not exercising myself, I supported all my fitness pals on their journeys. I am now BACK & better than ever. This challenge starts as my first year of MBA work wraps-up and my summer job begins. A challenge & a team to support will certainly help motivate me - and it starts at the perfect time! Hope I can be a part and lose my next 20lbs. Thanks!

    1. My name is Hilary- hilhall822
    2. Your End of the Round (7 week) Weight Loss Goal: 10 lbs (hoping for 15)
    3. Why you'd like to join the DiamondDolls Team in the Diamond Challenge. I LOVE CHALLENGES! I love to have a goal, check-ins, accountability and support. I feel like I am a good source of support and motivation, and have plenty of time to spare to be committed to the requirements for the group.

    THANKS!

    3. I'm really struggling to know what to eat and when, what's good, what's bad, moderation etc. I really need the support of other people doing the same to help me.

    This is not the sign ups for DITR, it is Diamond Dolls sign up. That will not be for a couple of weeks. I will not be taking members for Jamaica's team.

    Hey ladies, this is my personal profile, I'll be running this team. Feel free to add my profile, since I'm able to answer questions here more frequently as it's linked to my phone.

    Call me Chase, and here's my official sign up:
    1. Chase- ChaseKilgannon
    2. Depending on what I weigh at the start, I'm hoping for high to mid 180's, which will mean 6-10 lbs if I meet my goal in Round 2.
    3. I'm the competitive type, this challenge has managed to help motivate me in ways I may not have had in my home life. I pulled out two weeks on top so far in Round 2, and I've got a wedding to go to in July, so of course I'm sticking around such a positive group.

    Don't forget to add me, and shoot me a message if you want, I'm a chatty person. :)

    2. 7 pounds
    3. I was on a "diet" (hate that word!!!) for 2 weeks before I joined MFP and I hadn't lost any weight at all and I was searching for something to help me because let's be honest our friends and families aren't the best support system....so I found MFP and today I weight-in for the first time (my week 3, but first week on the site) and I've lost a POUND! Which is a small little number, but it is progress and I am proud of my progress! Butttt I want my progress it sky rocket and when I saw that there was a new group (I've been jealous of all the huge groups that have already started) starting I got butterflies in my stomach because I was think this right here could be my ticket to success and maybe even two pounds a week!!! So I really hope I can be apart of this!

    Add me and let me know you are on the Diamond Dolls in the message :)

    Sounds awesome Ygrad, just remember, this is not Jamaica's team, and she'll be signing people up in a separate thread later. This team will be competing AGAINST Diamonds in the Rough.

    Just read the above post and answer the three things to sign up and I'll add you.
