I like having the challenge - this is my first one that I have done and it has helped alot! However, as far as the thread is concerned it wasn't what I thought it would be, or maybe I just had to do alot more wading thru extra stuff to get the weight loss challenge info out of it. I really enjoy sharing with others when they are facing ups and downs on their weight or eating but as far as all the general chit chat I thought there are other areas for that. This is just my honest opinion and you can do whatever you like with it.
I am so sorry this thread is not what you had expected but it is listed as chit chat so if we go off course it is expected. There were over 70 people who signed up for the challenge however if you read over all the pages there are only a handful who participate on the thread. We share weight loss or gains, recipe's and exercise tips. We pull each other up when we are down. Weight problems are psychological so we get excited for each other if there is something exciting going on in a persons life that they share with us. Some people don't have anyone but the people are this thread/board. If it wasn't for the general chit chat there would not be thread at all. Now would there? I would like to know where are the other 60+ people? Why havn't they posted or commented? My question wasn't if the format should be changed to not include general chit chat the question was should the weight loss challenge with a prize continue?
