I was going to sew on a project and had to measure myself and I've lost about 5 inches on my bust, waist and hips. so yeah it's all good.

I still need your goal weight please!

Happy Sunday all!

Just wanted to let you all know that I went in and deleted a few players who have not updated 3 or more times. If you were one that was deleted and want to play again the next challenge is just around the corner!

Annabreke 84 was our highest % of weight loss at 8.3%!

157.4

159????

Although we're still missing some weights I thought I would update our numbers from last week. If you see any of your numbers in blue that means I'm missing that weight and I've carried over your last weight.

If you get more than 3 blue numbers I'll assume you no longer want to participate and I will delete your name from our spreadsheet. You can update your weight any time during the week, but if I don't get it on Mondays then it may take me longer to update the spreadsheet.

Drum roll please!!! In total we have lost 446.1 lbs since we started on 1/4/16! Great job everyone! Congrats to @annaberke 84 who has the largest % of weight loss at 8.30%!!!

Great job everyone! Have fun this week!!!

Happy Saturday all!

I'm still missing some weigh ins for the 11th and 18th. Please try to get those in asap. Remember, if you miss more than 3 weigh ins your name will be deleted.

Good luck to all for tomorrow's weight in!

That's a great question. I've been having trouble dropping my last 27 lbs. I wonder if this could help? I look forward to hearing everyone's answers!

Today I was finally able to zip my jacket I purchased last February. It's a Merrell size Medium and fit great!

Ok.. I'm just seeing this. Is there another contest coming soon as I am too late for this one? Please Lmk

SW 290. Week 1

Vacation. Week 2

CW 290.2 Week 3

I was visiting my grandkids for a week and didn't change my eating habits. I guess staying basically the same is a good thing, right?

As I was typing in 290.2 and feeling a tiny bit sad I made a typo and put 390.2.

It was a real wake up call. If I hadn't started this weight loss surgery journey, that number would have eventually been mine. Yikes!

I looked at my Fitbit Aria wifi scale log and my weight has been the same since Jan 4 give or take a pound.

Definitely a stall. More Water. More movement. More Protein. My calories are between 450 and 700 daily. I'm going to go back to a Premier Protein drink once a day to make sure my count stays up between 60 and 90 grams. Saturday January 23 is my 65th birthday. I did this so I could be around to see my grandkids(2&5) grow up. What's a little stall in the big picture? My clothes are getting baggy and my face is much thinner.

You did a great thing, putting your health first so you can be here for your family. Take it from me, stalls will visit often. Make the best of your losses! Your doing great!

Good evening all!

I just wanted to take a minute to congratulate everyone on a week well done! As a group we lost 223.5 lbs this first week.That is awesome!!!!

@@teaqueen lost the highest % of weight this week with 4.95%!!!

I'm still missing a few starting weights and a few first week weigh ins, so our numbers may change a bit!

Great job everybody! To those of us that had a stall or gain, we got this!!!! Next weigh in is our week!!!!

You have my number wrong for week 1

It is 204 not 206

Thank you

The starting weight posted was 206, 204 was posted for week 2. You are all up to date. Let me know if you have any other questions! Have a wonderful day! ????

Hi Sarah (and Steph),

Just checking on the status of updating the formulas on the spreadsheet so we can all see our total amount lost, amount to goal, % of weight lost, etc.? We would all greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much!

I'm currently working on it. I'll be done shortly!

Just got back from Cabo gained! Cw 169

For some reason I am put under the name wendy matlock instead of my screen name, but that's ok. Thanks!

I've changed your name! Vacation has that effect on us, fun and play tend to stay with us for a bit afterwards. You will be on the losing side next weight in! ????

Why are some of the numbers red, does it mean I did something wrong?

No you did nothing wrong. The red numbers are just color coding that helps you and I to know that your weight was carried over from the previous week. If you look on the top right hand side of the spreadsheet you will see what the color coding are.
