    Everyone up to this post is added... To keep the group small so we can get to know everyone I'm going to close the group at this point which brings us to a total of 23.... WOW! I never expected so many of you to want to join and soo quickly! This is awesome! SInce September Shred is the only suggestion and a pretty good one at that! I'm working on a banner for my signature - working on the size of it. Once it looks right, feel free to copy it if you want :happy:

    Group name suggestion: September Svelte :)
    Had a bowling team where all of us had the gastric surgery and we called it Slim Chance :) .......we were getting skinny and all had a second chance at life...not to mention i had a slim chance of hitting the pins becuase I had been out of practice on bowling for so long :)

    So we have a second suggestion for a team name September Svelte - I like this one too but we do have a guy on our team, a firefighter, and I'm not sure if svelte which means slender and elegant fits... let me know what you all think!
    Here's the code for the banner I created. Just change the img to lowercase and it should work. If we decide to change the name I'll just change the picture but not the code so we won't have to change it again.

    Ok I need to get on the ball today. Time to workout, get some papers graded, and lesson plans written. I'll check back in later!!

    I'm excited too! I am from Denver, CO. I have a 2 year old daughter who keeps me so busy all day long! My workout of choice is jazzercise- and my goal is to go 3-4 x/week and walk the rest of the days of the week. I have pretty much always struggled with my weight, and my weightloss so far has been slow as I have periods of doing really really well and then periods of doing really really bad! Trying to find that balance.

    I'd like to sign up as well, if I'm not too late! My job is 60% percent travel, and over the last 4 years I've gained 35 pounds. Its time to end this madness! 10 lbs would be great :-)

    Hi!

    I'm excited, ths will be my 2nd challenge after I complete my first one!

    Me? I'm 26 y/o from TN in a relationship with Daniel for two years. We've got two "kids" a dog and cat. Well, and his 10 year old daughter Grace but she's the best behaved of the three. LOL!!

    I work at home for Convergy's ATT answering questions about accounts - billing ,sales, technical, the whole shebang.

    I'm trying real hard to lower my sodium intake but so many foods that I love have it.. ::sad::

    Anywoo, feel free to add!

    I've found MFP addicting and I'm constantly checking here.

    Just a quick check in as I'm off to bed for the night.... I'm not sure if I said it in my original post but I'm from Jacksonville, Florida.

    As for the group name we are working with an unofficial name of September Shred but we have another idea on the table of September Svelte. Even though I am organizing us I'm not a dictator :wink: so everyone's input woud be great:happy:

    I like September Shred. I wouldn't want to make the male in the group uncomfortable with the term svelte in our name. I'm ready to get this show on the road already!!! Come on September 1st!! We're starting this challenge on my little ones first birthday! :bigsmile:

    Hi, my name is Joanne. I am the mother of a 4, 6 and 8 year olds. I am currently training for a half marathon and doing turbofire. I might do a second round of P90X or start insanity again. I have been in maintenance mode the whole summer and am ready to kick start my weight loss again.
