    I believe everyone can join even if you can't win a prize due to legal rules, you just have to use the app to join. The challenge is only available through the apps and not through the websit.

    LOL.. maybe we should just start our own here... perhaps along the lines of a "Home Alone" challenge for the forlorn left behind from our friends??

    HAAAAAAAAAAA..... just kidding.. :)o:) i know.. i'm the only one who thinks i'm funny... prolly shouldn't have had that 2nd glass of wine with dinner?? :'(o:)



    Rankin - thanks for letting us know the parameters of the challenge; and thanks to everyone else who offered info and suggestions... and to the mod usmc... still can't get join thru my iPhone app but it's ok LOL.. :)

    wishing everyone on MFP all the best in health and happiness and success in whatever health/fitness goals you are working toward!

    still chuckling....

    Hello,

    I see a lot of my fitness pals have joined a 2016 wellness challenge but I seem unable to do that. Perhaps because I am Canadian?

    Could someone tell me what the challenge is about so my Canadian friends and I can play along?

    Looking forward to a successful 2016

    Thanks!

    I'm in Ontario an I was able to join the wellness challenge.
    Good luck in figuring it out.

    Im in Ontario too but couldn't join. Interesting.

    Thanks for the tips! It was so annoying not being able to see what it was all about.

    Yeah, I have tried joining a few times and couldn't. That's when I finally saw a post that it's for US only (I am Canadian) The weird thing is, a friend of mine who lives 15 mins from me was able to.

    The biggest loser challenge is open to all countries all over the world :) they've been running them for a long time now and have great success. Anyone who can't join the wellness one should check it out.

    It says in the rules the contest is only open to US citizens.

    I'm a US Citizen! :-). . . Living in Greece. Oh well.

    Honestly, I was just curious what it was and why nothing happened when I clicked it, don't really want to participate anyway.

    Well then! Really annoys me as I opted for MFP Premium when it came out. I've got well over 1000 days logged in with meals tracked. So the challenge would not have been much of a challenge. I think I'll send the folks at MFP an email and ask that they run challenges across the board or not at all. They certainly seem to have members all over the world!

    Thanks for the explanation. I thought it was a bug in the app that it wouldn't launch for me. I'm in the UK. Cheers.
