July Challenge
Happy July! It is time for our July Challenge! I still have no concept of how to get images on this site - I think there is something wrong with me. So I'm going to see if Alex can help me - or if not - I'm sending the link to Krista and when she's available - she can post it. This month we are working on our bum. 1st days…

Who are you?
It was brought to my attention that some are finding it difficult to know who everyone "really" is on here based on their nicknames. So I thought it would be fun to create a Get to Know Each Other kind of thread. So tell us your real name and then tell us a little bit about you: work, family, goals, hobbies, etc.
ABOUT: NORTH END LOSERS
I thought I would post some info here for new members who might stumble upon our group. North End Losers is a healthy living group located at Ralph Brown Community Centre on the North End of Winnipeg. We meet twice a week to work out together and do weigh-ins while being supportive and encouraging to each other. You don't…

Summer Challenge
K - so we're half a month into the summer challenge - but there is still time to join us and to ROCK the challenge. We have two goals for over the summer - one is to lose weight and one is to move. The personal goal will be however much you want to weigh on August 31st. That's a Sunday when our group does our weigh ins. If…
January 2014 Challenge
Our January goal for NEL has both a group challenge and a personal challenge. The group challenge winner will be the one who has lost the most weight in January. Most everyone had the 5th as their weigh in date but I'll accept anything from the 1st to the 8th. The personal challenge - this is where everyone gets a chance…
Eating Healthy on a Budget
I was browsing MFP and came across this forum post - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/547180-healthy-food-on-a-budget - regarding eating healthy on a budget. This is a HUGE problem for me, too. I want to eat so much healthier, but we simply can't afford it. We are a family of 4 and have a $400/month budget. How do…
Tips, tricks, hints, etc.
I come cross different little tidbits online quite often and will start sharing them here. Feel free to share your own.

Gratitude Challenge
I know this isn't a fitness challenge but think this would help people in all areas. Sometimes we let life get in the way and take things for granted without giving them the accolades they deserve. I was thinking we could use this thread to post at least 3 things we are thankful for every day so we can realize more of our…
North End Goings On
I thought I would start a thread where we could post different things that are going on in the North End, and elsewhere in the city. Feel free to post anything you wish to inform others of as well.
Random Discussions
I thought it might be a little fun to have a post strictly for talking about things in the news, magazines, etc. Even if those things are off-topic. Feel free to post what you would like to talk about here.
Blogs, Websites, etc.
I thought we could have a thread to post websites, blogs, etc that we think others might enjoy.
