Ok everyone. I wanted to join the Christmas group but it was already close so I thought we can start a small "holiday" group with goals for the remaining holidays for the year. For example:

Weigh in day-
Starting Weight-
Goal for Labor Day (9/6/11)-
Goal for Halloween (10/31/11)-
Goal for Thanksgiving (11/24/11)-
Goal for Christmas (12/25/11)-
Final Challenge Goal for New Years (1/1/12)-

We can start today 8/9/11. This is open for 20 people. We can keep it small for more motivation and help!

We will weigh in weekly and chat about it and make sure we are working towards our goals. We will use this board to post any NSV, SV, challenges, new recipes, daily chat, etc.

  • :happy: Got you Laura!!!
  • Oh, this sounds like a great idea!! May I join?

    I just got a scale, so I'm pretty much starting from scratch. Even though I'm scrapping about a week and a half :P.
    I'm Debs, 26, and trying to live a healthier life and be fit. My friend and I want to do a marathon next year and I thought that I can't break a promise for being a fatty and I thought I would do myself good by taking care of myself and letting my weight deter me from living! :P lol.

    I wish us luck on our journeys to a healthier life!

    I would like to join. I am not going to post my goals just yet because I need to think about them. I do have goals, but I think they might be a bit unrealistic, so I think I need to re-evaluate for this challenge. Make them something achievable.

    Can I join too? I've never been part of a group! I'll post my goals after I've given them some more thought.
