This will be an 8-week challenge here on MyFitnessPal. You will be given weekly challenges on your team's board every week. And a choose-your-own adventure story option to vote on.

Don't worry, you don't need any special equipment to do the challenge. You can use household objects for every exercise. :)

Hey Everyone! Again, thank you for all the interest! This is going to be a fun challenge. I will post the official sign up on January 27th so be sure to look out for it then and sign up! I will keep it going for a week or until we fill up each team. The challenge will officially start on February 4th, but I will post the…

IS ANYONE GOOD AT MAKING BANNERS? If I give you a set of images and title, can you come up with an awesome banner to use for this challenge? Send me a private message if you are interested! :) Thanks!

Found all my captains! Thanks everyone!

Anyone else interested in being a captain? Please message me if so! :)

Still looking for 1 more captain! Send me a message or reply here if you are interested! :)

It's won't follow along with Walking Dead's storyline but it will be starting around the same time Walking Dead returns. :) Although this challenge will start a week before it come back. :)

CALLING ALL ZOMBIE HUNTERS! :) I'm looking for 2 more captains for the Zombie Apocalypse Survival Challenge I am putting together for this February! Anyone interested?

This is a weight loss challenge of sorts. But it's not a competition to see who loses the most weight. It's just a fun, interactive game/story that will you give you exercise goals each week. Basically, you will more than likely lose weight as you play! But you will be reporting your weight each week privately to your…

This will all be via mfp!

Thanks everyone for the support and challenge name ideas! Just a little update: I've decided that the challenge will officially start on February 4th! I will send out a message that weekend to officially announce it though so that we can get teams all set up and start that Monday morning. I will keep you updated in case I…

WOW! I'm glad there is so much interest! I will post here in the next few weeks and create a new message with the official announcement when I'm ready to recruit some zombie fighters. So please check back often! In the meantime, what are your ideas for a catchy title? :happy:

From everything I've read, a calorie is metabolized in the same way -- no matter the time of day. So I'd say go ahead and eat a late night snack. Just make sure it's within your calories and maybe a little healthy. ;)

LOL You don' t have to run. You can do anything you want for the cardio. And you only pretend to use sharp objects on the zombie's. No people...or undead...will actually be hurt during the challenge. ;)

Sure you can run if you want. There will be weekly cardiovascular, strength training and agility challenges. Plus a story line to go along with each week.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I am leaning toward the FT4. Would anyone else recommend this model? Are there any features that you love or hate?

http://www.everydayhealth.com/fitness-specialist/dealing-with-weight-loss-plateaus.aspx This is my favorite article on weight loss plateaus. I go through them about once a month it seems. But after two weeks, I usually see the scale drop. I also do measurements so I can see that I am still on track even when the scale…

Thank you. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Well, this one is going to be really fun. A story based challenge that is very interactive. So I don't think that there will be much room for boredom or losing focus. :)

You are an inspiration. Great job! :smile:

I'd like to join the challenge. This will be my first challenge ever! The zombie theme sounds really fun.:happy:

This is happening to me too. I kicked butt this week at the gym and even almost hurt myself. I never thought of muscle inflammation being the cause of weight fluctuations. This gives me hope. Thanks. :)

I am measuring myself every 10 days -- my next measuring day is the 21st. I do feel a difference in my body-- it feels tighter, smaller and stronger -- so I will just try to focus on that instead of the numbers on the scale. Thanks guys. :)
