    Hi! I am currently looking for about 20 more participants for a challenge group that will start next Monday, November 2 and run 8 weeks until December 27. It is a team's based challenge (more info below). This will be the 21st running of this challenge. Participation requires regular checking in with the group! Please let me know if you have any questions or are interested in one of the spots available!

    Welcome to our Biggest Loser competition - MFP style! We had a successful Season 1 back in 2012 and have kept it going ever since. We are getting ready to start season 21(!!!) and are currently planning to continue running this challenge into 2016. So if you‘re looking for an awesome support group, fun challenges, and a little bit of friendly competition, you’re definitely in the right place!!!

    Our Biggest Loser competition will be held for 8 weeks, beginning on Monday, November 2, 2015. This season we offer spots for people looking to lose weight AND for people looking to maintain their current weight. Winners will be announced for the following categories at the end of the season: Highest percentage of weight loss and highest number of challenge points earned.

    This season is TEAMS competition! Teams will be fighting to get their name in the coveted top spot every week! Since no competition is any fun without a little extra teamwork, teams will be competing to claim the highest average challenge points as well as the highest team percentage of weight loss each week.

    Each Sunday or Monday (your choice), every individual will weigh in and compute their own challenge points. They will submit the numbers to their team board. Later in the week winners will be announced based on the following:

    1) Team with the highest percentage of weight loss
    2) Team with the highest average of challenge points earned by its participants
    3) Individual recognition for the week's top 20 weight loss
    4) Individual recognition for the week's top 20 challenge points earned

    For this season we will be offering points for minutes of exercise completed as well as for optional mini-challenges that you will be encouraged to join. You may join as many or as few as you'd like, but we suggest that you join at least one. Five bonus points will be awarded for each additional challenge you actively participated in each week. Details will be lined out in each mini-challenge’s description. There is no limit to how many mini challenges you can participate in, so feel free to challenge yourself!!!

    Can you perhaps make one more team so rest of us can join too. Having more teams/people won't hurt right.

    I will see what I can do about finding spots. I'm reluctant to make another team, as I already have 6 and over 100 participants! I am certain there will be no shows and drops in the first week though. So anyone who is interested in a spot and committed to participating the entire 8 weeks - send me a PM and I will give any openings I come up with to you!
