Need some friends? Well I do. Most of the groups seem to be pretty "full". (Not that anyone is excluding because they aren't) I've just been noticing alot of newbies, myself included, that introduce themselves and never get "connected" so the chances of people falling off the wagon increases. So I propose that we stay on the wagon, who's with me? Anyone not connected yet with a group or some friends? Just sitting there watching everyone else post their triumphs and wishing you had someone to say good job? Well I think you're my new friend, wanna join my group?

    I would love to do that. I just started on this website yesterday and I am addicted to it. It would be great to have a couple good accountability partners to keep me in check!

    im definitely down i just started monday and like most of you i am addicted as well. this lil website is a lifesaver. i am not goin to carry around a food journal because nine times out of ten i guesstimate(normally on my own caloric scale) how much of this and that was in what i ate throughout the day. this makes the dreaded word and all the work of a diet so easy.

    So how does a Tuesday weigh in work for everybody? Still need a name. What are your thoughts on doing some challenges? It can either be a self-challenge or group or switch between both. Any other thoughts?

    a group challege would be cool. We can have our own form of biggest loser going on here! Tuesdays work fine for me!

    I am afraid if I were to come up with a name then it would be pretty off the wall..... I better leave that part of it to the professionals.....Oh by the way.....Thats's what I'm going to call my baby, Punkinhead! Thats a great nickname for a kid!

    Here comes the corney names....
    I was going to suggest something like Sisterhood of.... but since we have a charter member that's not of the feminine persuasion I'll skip that one...
    Finally Fit to have Fun
    Former Fatties
    Online Calorie Choppers (OCC haha)

    Good luck to you all! I know there seem like a lot of teams. I am on the purple team and we are doing this team (red, black, blue, purple, and green) thing thru the Biggest Loser show. I also joined the Fitness Buddy team. There are some really great people on here and I hope you didn't feel left out of anything. If I am on and a new person posts that they just joined I try to welcome them here. I wish you all the best of luck and I will check in and see how your team does. You all will do great!! I love the motivation!!

    I didn't feel left out, just didn't plug myself in right away and so I thought there might be others who were doing the same and needed "plugging". I also did it for myself to "plug in". Nothing like a group to motivate you! Thanks for your support!

    This feels too much like work and home, I'm always outnumbered! I am kind of partial to the OCC.
