I would like to start a challenge that go like a game/competition between members. A way for us to get fit and healthy and have a little fun while we're at it.

Here's the link to the group:

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/115284-12-week-jump-start-challenge

It's private so just ask to join and get everyone set up. I would like to get at least 30-45 members so we can have 10-15 people on each team. There will be three teams by the way, I haven't chosen cool names for them yet but ya'll can help with that later. I was initial going to start the challenge Aug. 8th, but if enough people sign up in time, I'll start it on the 1st :).

Hope to see ya'll there.

    Unfortunately I get enough people to sign up in time, so the challenge will not officially start until Aug. 8th. There's still plenty of room for people to join :smiley:

    I waited to long to edit my above post, but I wanted to correct it to say that not enough people signed up for the challenge so it won't be starting today. The Jump Start Challenge will officially start Aug. 8th, so there's still plenty of time and room for more people to join.

    I hope to see you there :smiley:.

    I it have set up so we participate as if we're sort of playing a game. Everyone will be divided into three teams, there will be weekly weigh ins, bonus challenges each week, and you'll earn points each week for completing challenges and exercising. At the end of each week individual and team winners will be announced for most points earned, most lost, and highest percentage lost. Just trying make it fun but still focused around everyone's general goals to be healthier.

    I'd like to join! Trying to get to the gym or walk in the mornings before work, but I'm not a morning person at all so maybe this will help keep me on track!
