Anyone want to start a new group?

I posted a thread in Motivation and Support under the title "Six Week Challenge?" and haven't had ONE SINGLE RESPONSE! I can't believe that there isn't one person on MFP who wants to commit to six weeks of diet change and improved fitness, so I thought I'd post about it here to see if anyone new to the site wants to join me.

If you're interested, go to the main message board page and enter "six week challenge" into the search field. You should see my post there. Click on it, read the intro, post your stats, and let's get started!

    It's called "new me"

    It took me at least 3 tries to get a cycling group going at the beginning of the summer. I finally did though and we'll be starting our 11th week. :happy: Also I got a 30 Day Shred group going that just started up. Please feel free to join in. Here's the link...

    But if you'd rather get a new challenge group going, just keep trying. Eventually, it will take off! Good luck!!! :drinker:

    Thanks! I really want to start up this group because I'm going to Mexico for my birthday in six weeks (self-serving, I know :tongue: ). I also tried starting a swimmer's group in June to no avail. My plan is to just keep bugging people on different boards and to keep talking to myself on the main thread until someone else decides to join in!

    Thanks for the encouragement!

    I will start this group with you with you! :smile: I am already doing a "look great by Christmas" challenge, but since this is a shorter time, I think I can fit it in. I have to warn you though, I have tried to be good about posting to the threads, but sometimes I forget and don't post except for once a week. I will try to be better. Actually, I think it will work well if this group is smaller than my other group because I feel like that group is so big that I can not possibly keep up with what the other people in the group are doing. This is a good time for me to start a new endeavor, as well. A friend of mine is having a baby in about 6 weeks. When she does there will undoubtedly be visits to my home town. I love showing up to my home town looking thinner. Everyone notices because they don't see me every day.

    Awesome! It looks like this group will be pretty small. The main board is over on Motivation and Support under the heading "Six Week Challenge?" You can post your starting stats and goals on that board.

    Welcome!
