Copy/pasted from the leader's blog:
Because I dropped the ball a bit this week, the challenge starts tomorrow (Thursday) and runs through Tuesday!
We are officially half way through the challenge! How is everyone doing?!?!
This week, I am going to ask everyone to renew your motivation and dedication to your weight loss. That’s what we’re all here for, right?
I am asking everyone to read a few articles, but really focus on your goals, your team and the people that make up your team! Let’s bring the energy of the BLC #10 day one back and spread the spark to our teammates this week!!!!!
First, read about the mystery of motivation: www.sparkpeople.com/reso

?id=630
Next, select any motivational story from the long list on spark people! www.sparkpeople.com/reso
urce/motivation_articles_lis

Blog about the story you read/watched and tells us how it motivated you.
Then, read about goal setting: www.sparkpeople.com/reso

Formulate your own goals, including long term, mid-term and short term. Think about where you want to be at the end of the BLC (June 15) and how you plan to get there. *BONUS* continue to make goals for your journey after the BLC ends.
