2016 wellness challenge
Hello, I see a lot of my fitness pals have joined a 2016 wellness challenge but I seem unable to do that. Perhaps because I am Canadian? Could someone tell me what the challenge is about so my Canadian friends and I can play along? Looking forward to a successful 2016 Thanks!

Hi all. Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm female, in my late 40s, 5'6" and trying to get into the 120s. I've been carrying around extra weight all my life.
