Yes Nicole, I did take my vitamin today! (But thanks for keeping helping me to remember)

That is sure right and making you stick to what you say you will do!

I am the team cheerleader for the Wildcats as not long after I joined both BS and the Wildcats, I found out I was pregnant! My team is so great, they wouldn't even let me leave the team. Anj and I are accountability partners, so she helps me to remeber things like eating good foods, and getting my water in, and as she said, I help her remember her vitamin each day, as well as kick her butt if she starts slacking on her excercise or doesn't eat enough.

Being on the team has helped me through many personal problems as well as fitness and diet issues! I couldn't recommend being on a team any stronger! It is the best thing I have ever done for myself!

Congrats to all teams for their losses last week! Watch out though the Cats are ready to make a comeback!

I have been on many of the teams. I started BS about a year ago and started as a WILDCAT....I loved being on the team and always winning that trophy. When I cam back after a leave of absence, I joined the Hot Rods, which is now the diamonds. My sis was leading the team, and I loved the way everyone was so close and picked each other up even though the trophy was elusive. They tried their best every week no matter what and were true friends.

I decided that the excitement that I had for weight loss (I am doing it this time) could be contagious so I started a team, the ROCKSTARS, and wouldn;t you know, people actually joined. They wanted to ROCK the scales and challenge themselves to be successful. We have a great group of guys and gals and we are always wanting our center stage.

What you will find about the teams is that they all have a litte bit different personality, so just find the one that fits you and go. Read the threads and the blogs by different team members. Find the active members on the team and ask them questions. This will help in finding a great match for you

Good Luck and ROCK ON

Thans Lara! Can I have your autograph?

When I first joined BS, I was guided towards the teams and Hot Rods had an opening (now the Diamonds). I loved the team challenges, the support and the accountability. I loved being part of a group for the comradery and friendship - when I first came here I was a little shy and quiet and now -well I'm not at all! It wasn't just the social piece, though, but also for the responsibility. I never wanted to let the team down and have my gains effect the greater team. Now, as the pregnant chick on the team, I'm the cheerleader. I also like the competitive playfulness between teams and I like to go play with my buds over on the Wildcats. All the teams really are great!

For anyone reading this...I just want to be the first to say that I think Debbie is full of mud! There is no way possible that she was shy and quiet. LOL

I was, I swear! I learned here that I am a shy extrovert. I always thought I was a chatty introvert!
