southernbelle102~ I'm not sure on the hair loss, but have your tried mixing things up with your workouts? Try something completely new and see if that helps break you through the plateau.

Looks like super heroes are winning...

Remember to vote!!!

I voted for mythological names, but seeing as how the superheroes are in the lead (at least for the moment), is it okay if I make a few suggestions?

If superheroes wins, I'd really like to have one of the following as a team name: Aeon Flux, The Scarlet Witch, Rogue, or Gi from the Captain Planet cartoon. Could any of those end up as possible team names should the superheroes category win?

Ooh I like Rogue and Aeon Flux (I'm not familiar with the others). What about Pheonix from X-Men. Or Poison Ivy (ok, she's a bad guy, but I love her).

Or the classics, Wonder Woman and Catwoman.

I am so glad that you mentioned Poison Ivy! I actually had written her into my post, too, but then edited her out because I was worried that my list was starting to sound a bit dark. I would also love to be on a Poison Ivy team! She kicks butt.

The Scarlet Witch is a Marvel character and was in some of the X-Men stories. In her earlier incarnations, she can manipulate probability, but not perfectly, which I thought was a nice kind of metaphor for weight loss (you can eat on plan and exercise regularly and you still might not see what you want on the scale for a while).

In the event that I'm forced to be on a team named after a female superhero, I'm with Nienna, I opt for the newer superheroes. Psylocke, Jean Grey, Storm; any woman who was actually a stand-alone complex, and not just a womanized version of the male predecessor (Batwoman, Superwoman, all the other BS wannabes). And I'm also in support of any character who's signature outfit didn't consist of a tail, cat ears, or go-go boots.

I like a lot of the suggestions for the Team names. Here is a compilation and some of my suggestions for popular, well-known heroines.

Super Heroines:
Wonder Woman
Bat Girl/Oracle - Batman Universe
Black Canary - Batman Universe
Huntress - Batman Universe
Rogue - X-Men Universe
Storm - X-Men Universe
Jean Grey/ Phoenix - X-Men Universe
Psylocke - X-Men Universe
Black Widow - Iron man Universe
Aeon Flux
Scarlet Witch - X-Men Universe
Shadow Cat - X-Men Universe
Gi - Captain Planet Universe
She-Ra
Chun-Li - Street Fighter
Cammie - Street Fighter
Vampirella
Xena - Xena Warrior Princess


Anti-Heroines (They are just misunderstood):
Catwoman - Batman Universe
Poison Ivy - Batman Universe
Harley Quinn - Batman Universe
Black Cat - Spiderman Universe
Elektra - Daredevil Universe
Mystique - X-men Universe

I think it would be fun if we had a heroine vs. anti-heroine teams.

My favs are Rogue, Catwoman, Chun-Li, and Elektra.
