This board is where you get to know each other. But I also request certain info that helps me build teams and create effective challenges. If you don't feel comfortable providing it on the board, then feel free to message me the info. Teams usually are by time zone.
  1. Name
  2. State or Country
  3. Time Zone
  4. Age
  5. How many pounds want to lose during the show
  6. Would you be willing to be a team leader? *


*Team leaders keep an eye on the members in their group. Help make sure they participate and weigh-in each week. Help answer questions and filter to myself if needed. It doesn't take too much time. But it is a huge help to me, as I can't possibly help 100 some people all by myself. Thanks!

    Hey, I'm Tara

    - Ireland
    - GMT
    - 40
    - Ummm, not sure. I'd be happy to keep losing at 1 to 1.5 lbs per week, so say 15 pounds which will bring me just past my overall goal weight of 135. As I'm getting closer, it's getting harder so I will need all the help I can get.
    - I'd love to be a team leader but doubt I'd be able to give it the attention it deserves.

    Good luck all!

    Hi all -- I'm Christina

    Age = 39
    How many pounds want to lose during the show = 15-20
    Would you be willing to be a team leader? I would but I don't have internet access at home so I'm limited on the amount of time I can go on with phone. I mainly access internet on breaks at work.

    Hello: My name is Rhonda and I just turned the BIG 50.....I have been on a weight loss journey (getting healthy) for just over 5 years and this last year I fell off the wagon and gained back a bit of weight but more importantly I feel UGH.....so Today I am BACK with a cleanse and then moving on to healthy eating and exercise. (Before this last year I had lost a total of 120 lbs) My time zone is Eastern. I want to lose 20 lbs during the show and I am joining this group because I want the extra support and it sounds like fun! I would rather not be a team leader this time (cause its my first group) but I am willing to support anyway I can.
