I might be. For me, the big, big thing is nibbling. Anyone else?

I am not sure. We lost all interest. If you people are interested, please post in this board and I can start doing this again.

Does anyone think this concept will be resurected?
Sounds like fun to me!

I hope we subscribe to the motto "Better Late Than Never!" Being new to the Spark program, I feel like I've got lots to learn. I'm trying to catch up fast. This is what I am looking for, a buddy to keep me motivated. Thanks. I'll look for new buddy assignments a week from today. Is that correct? I'll watch message board for any changes to this thread? Hope I'm on track with this. Thanks, Paula

I'll take the plunge...

I have enough issues being accountable for myself. Unfortunately what little motivation I possess I selfishly keep to myself.

I'm okay with dropping out of the partner thing, but you all carry on!

I didn't pick partners for this week because I want some input on this. It seems like several people aren't responding to their partners during the week and that participation in this is not consistent. What are your thoughts and feeling about this program. Please share them in this thread. Thank you.

Go partners. Just spark mail your partner and let them know your best way to communicate during the week. Then let them know what your goals are for the week and account away!! We can do this ladies...we are strong!!!!

You know...I am not really sure. It was an idea to form communication bonds for a week with a person from the group. You would come up with one goal for the week and then your partner would help motivate you and hold you accountable to it.

Is anyone interested in creating a buddy system that rotates weekly? It would focus on motivation and accountability. Each person would choose one area for the week that they would like to be held accountable for. What do you think?
