We are now accepting participants for our February Challenge! To recap how our challenge works, read on ...

• The original challenge runs all 12 months of 2007. But don't worry if you didn't sign up in January.
• Signing up for a challenge is completely voluntary. You are not obligated to sign up for all 12 monthly challenges. Take it one month at a time. Life happens.
• If you do sign up for a monthly challenge, please honor your commitment. If not for yourself, but for the other challengers that month.
• You will pick your own challenge! We are all different - what works for me, may not work for you. Only you know what struggle you face each day. That being said, this is a challenge, so aim high!
• You will be assigned a cheerleader for the month. Your cheerleader will try to visit you a few times each week to see how you're doing and cheer you on. At the end of the month, your cheerleader will send you a little surprise to congratulate you for your success!
• All challengers will be given authoring rights to this website. Please do not abuse this priviledge and spam us like crazy.
• You are not obligated to post here. Sometimes posting to our own blogs can be a challenge! If you like, post all your challenge updates on your own blog, then come here and post a direct link to your challenge post. When you do post, please label your post with your name. If you need help, just email us.
• This is supposed to be fun, so if it becomes a chore, just let me know. Just HAVE FUN!

And that's it in a nutshell. If you'd like to join us in February, please email the following information to me at 2007challenge at gmail dot com:

• Your name
• Your mailing address (this is so your partner can send you a little prezzie at the end of the challenge)
• Your blog address. MySpace blogs are welcome too!
• A few of your favorite things
• Your reason for participating in our challenge (please make this a non-weight loss specific goal. For example, BL3's Erik Chopin's reason was "to walk my daughters down the aisle.")
• Your February challenge!
• Optional: your birthday for our birthday club

And that's it. I look forward to seeing all of you succeed, and to getting to know our new February challengers!
