Vegetarian TEAMS Challenge :-)
 

Hello and welcome everyone old and new! This is our new TEAMS challenge!
We will weigh in every Friday, and hopefully by tomorrow or Saturday we'll have our teams decided upon.

Please still let me know (new challengers and old challengers) if you do want to be on a team! For everyone who does not want to be on a team, you can be in a group on non-teamers :carrot:

I'm really excited to start our new challenge and hope we have some new comers as well as all of our regulars :hug:


Here is a link to our old challenge as well.

So far we have a few people have agreed to doing teams, and as you agree through email or here in chat I will add you to the list! We have Me, Darby1, FatChickBGone, Joyra, Quillie, ZinkeMomx2 and HaleyGirl82.

Me too!

I'm in.

Woops sorry Quillie :) Glad to have you in Zinkemom!

I'm not sure how the teams work? I think I wouldn't be great for a team, I'm so close to goal and losing so slowly. I'm not restricting calories so I'm not going to be pushing to help the team win. I'm more like easing into maintenance.

Well I'm going to divide us all dependant on our weight, so I'm thinking we'll have 2 or 3 teams depending on how many people would like to do it, so I'd put someone like you on one team (with a small amount to lose) and someone else that is around goal on the other team :)

That way you can still be helpful to your team, support and all, but if you'd rather do just regular weighins instead that is fine also! :)

I'm happy to be on a team, I just don't want to pull anyone down! :D

i'd like to give the team thing a try!

Yay! Glad you are both in!

Tomorrow (Friday) will still be weigh in, that will be our starter weights... and hopefully we will have the teams set up soon :)

Weighing in at 213 this morning! I actually gasped when I saw the number. Glad to see many people joining, and of course nobody cares whether you have a lot to lose! It's all for a bit of extra motivation!

UrthWurm-Welcome!

starting weight 286

I FINALLY get to move my ticker down!! 203.2 this morning :)

Fat Chick B Gone-That's great!

:welcome: UrthWorm!! :hug:

Today's weigh in: 164 lbs
(Up .5 lb since last week, I'm assuming because I started working out, since I know I've done well on eating! lol)

Just in case if you are a late comer to our challenge,

I will not have the teams set up until Monday

so feel free to join still,

or you can just weigh in and not be on a team too! Just let me know.

:dust:

244.4
Weigh in this morning was not good. Part of it is ovulation which always bounces the scale up for me. The other part was just LOTS of bad food choices. Once again though I am back on plan.

Hi again everyone! Ive been gone for about a week thanks to a pesky virus pooping up my computer and internet....but Im back! And with a BAD weigh in!
Im up to 212 this week, which is 2lbs up since a few weeks ago. But, Im not ready to move my ticker, because I`ll get rid of those 2lbs asap.
Im deffinately in on the teams thing if its not too late.

Hey Kids,
Bad bad weigh in for me (219). I think that's where I started. But I knew it was coming and now it's going! I have one more social thing (lunch today) but I canceled tomorrows night at the martini bar (we're doing it next month instead).

Good job, everyone!

Welcome Urthworm!

I'm really excited about the teams. I think it will be fun!

Well for those of us who had bad weighs ins this week, a nice thing this is the start day of our new challenge :)

So no worries about the past! We are looking to the future ;)

I'm really excited about teams too.. I can't wait to get them set up, but I want to give everyone until Monday to join! :cheer2:

:dust:

I'm on my last few lbs... today I was 137 and I'm thinking I'd like to be 120 (but I do remember being 125 and pretty happy so we'll see when I get there!) So I know my loss might be slow and I hope I don't disappoint my team!

Thanks Iris.. glad to see you around again! 137! You're doing great :)


Darby.. have you ever been to the museum of nature and science in Denver?

I'm along the same lines as julie, I've lost 0.2 this week, I'm at 119 I don't have much left to lose.

No problem... I will put 1 person with little to lose on each team...


you are still beneficial because if you gain will be the only "set back" to a team... so that may help you stay on track??

So if you *want* to be on a team we'd be glad to have you, or if you want to weigh in on your own each week that is perfectly fine also :)

My starting weight is 158.4.

I'm excited for the motivation of teams! I don't want to be the person to let our team down so I know it will make me try harder.

maybe if there are enough of us one team could be people who don't have a lot left to lose?

I'm pretty excited... I need some motivation because I've been very lazy lately!

Jill-I have been to the museum and it's pretty cool. Are you planning a visit? If you're into art the Denver Art Museum is very nice.

Ok, my husband took me to lunch today. We went to Watercourse in Denver. I ate SO much! It was so good. But now I feel so stuffed and disgusting. Ugh. We were going to walk it off, but it's so windy outside, it wouldn't have been pleasant.

Anyway, I'm ready for Monday!

Hey guys!
I am interested in joining the team thing!!! I hope I'm not late! :o
Currently I weigh 224lbs:dizzy:

When the teams are created how does it go?:?:

Justhave2try :welcome: you are not too late! We haven't choose teams yet, I'm waiting until Monday morning to set up teams to give everyone a chance to join :)

Glad to have you!

Darby... Sorry you ate too much! It's so hard not 2 at Watercourse! :)

Iris... I'm thinking will have enough 'close 2 goalers' to put on each team :) but we will see! I was hoping for enough people to put on 3 teams, but we might start with 2 until our first goal which will be St Pattys day :)

Urthworm.. we're glad to have you here! :) the more people the better to try and keep the weight off together!

Joyra.. that is exactly how I feel with teams as well.. hopefully it wil be a little extra push to stay on the right track!

The way the teams will be set up: (Also it is not too late to sign up for teams, teams will be set up Monday morning)

I'm going to divide us all dependant on our weight, so we'll have someone that is around 200 on each team, around 150 on each team etc.

I'm going to try and get it as fairly as possible! :)

:dust:

Off to the grocery store to get some healthy meals made for the week... then a nice walk in the park. Any fun recipe suggestions? (probably for next week since I'm sure I'll be to the store and back before anyone responds!)

I just joined 3FCs and would love to join a team!

:welcome2: TWISH! :) Please let me know your starting weigh before tomorrow, that is when the teams will be set up! :) We weigh in every Friday!

BTW There will be 2 or 3 teams, with all of us divided, the teams wont just be 2 people each :)

is it too late to join?
