So I wanna start a challenge with kids my own age :)
I want somewhere between 15 and 20 people before I close it.
I'll message you guys every Monday with a new topic to weigh in at and we'll use it for the week to post challenges, give advice and just talk and get to know each other :)

It doesn't matter how much weight you need to lose, just come join me!
I still have a ways to go for my loss so I say we should from August 1st to January 1st!
Even if you hit your goal, you can still stick with us to maintain and stay on track.

Who's with me? (:

    Sounds good to me. I'm near the end of my weight loss, but I do need someone to keep me accountable for my workouts, I have problems with that.

    Goal weight:145lbs

    Yay! More people!

    Hmm.. we need a catchy group title!

    What would y'all think about stopping at 18 then splitting up into groups of 3 and making it competitive?
    Like whoever burns the most calories during the week wins or something?

    Lol of course! I don't hate on Canadians. Actually, the only people I usually watch on YouTube are Canadian (Chris Archie & Epic MealTime).

    Awesome! I'm thinking since we were all kids in the 90's, the groups could be like different Legends of the Hidden Temple teams!
    I wanna be on the purple team though! lol (:

    Good. Everyone should watch EpicMealTime after a cheat day. Just think, "Well, at least I didn't eat that."

    Oh, sounds interesting! HOWEVER... could I still possibly join if I don't know my weight? I don't own a scale right now and am going off of measurements in my bust, waist, and hips. I'm saving up for one but I prefer it this way for now because knowing my past history, I tend to get a little obsessive with the scale.
    Sooo, will you please let me in? I promise to be good, contribute, and what not. lol. :o)

    If there's still room I'm in! I'm going to focus on maintaining my weight next semester, I just spent the last 7 months trying to lose 14 pounds, I dont want to gain it all back. Staying active, eating right, but still focusing on my studies

    I'm 5'5", 133lbs, GW 125 lbs, and in my 4th year at a university studying Mechanical Engineering

    Welcome new people! :)
    If I counted right, we only have THREE more spots to fill!
    After that, we're gonna close this up and I'll send everyone a message with our thread for the week!
    Start thinking about what team color you want to be on!
    Google Legends of the Hidden Temple if you need to (:
    Team colors go to who calls it first in the new thread so read everyone's posts before picking! I don't like saying no lol
    There's going to be three people to a team and except the Purple Parrots will have two of y'all plus me :)
