Hey guys! Wow, I'm really excited about the amount of people that have joined. This is just a reminder that we are starting on MONDAY. However, if you haven't posted your goals yet, don't worry! You can post them whenever, even past the "official" start date. If you want to join in for the second or third sprint or whenever, that's totally fine! Or you don't even have to post them at all if you'd rather keep them private. (I do just recommend you have something written down somewhere at some point.)
I'm also working on getting some good resources together. One thing I have so far that I'm eager to start using is a weight tracking spreadsheet. So things like that... if you have something, let me know!
Also, I realized I haven't posted the timelines for our sprints. They are:
Sprint 1: May 19th to June 17th
Break 1: June 18th to June 22nd
Sprint 2: June 23rd to July 22nd
Break 2: July 23rd to July 27th
Sprint 3: July 28th to August 26th
As for how this is technically going to work, I will be posting a daily "check-in" kind of post. I know not everyone is going to be able or willing to check in every day but I think it'd be great to shoot for at least once a week. The check-in posts are part organization/reminders/to do lists for yourself, part a sense of accountability because I know I at least need that sometimes to feel motivated to do everything and they are also partly a place to offer others encouragement or advice or whatever. I'm also going to open up posting by members if you want to add anything pertinent. Also please feel free to ask if you have any question or need advice with anything!
So to sum up:
* Don't forget to write your goals down somewhere at some point
* If you have a resource you find helpful, link me here
* Don't forget to check in at least once a week
Thanks!
