For those who have participated already....Congratulations on your Easter goal weight loss! And lets keep going! For those who are new, please join us on our new goals for Mother's Day! I am not going to set the pounds, I say, you challenge yourself! Pick an amount you have to work harder for! And let that be your goal! Mother's Day is Sunday, May 9! Let's start this Monday as our first weigh in day, right after Easter. Keep posting every week on your progress. Good Luck to everyone!

hi what day are we using as weigh in day

hi what day are we using as weigh in day

I thought it was Monday.

Burlington County--Cherry Hill area, near Philly. Again, very small world :-)!

Nice! I'm going to Marlton twice a week for the No Boundaries program at the Fleet Feet store. Are you a runner? I'm always looking for other runners/wls people!

Thanks for bumping it up, maybe we could get it on the first post?

How is everyone else going? I think I might have gained this week... but Im going on a serious diet tomorrow so we'll see what happens.

I'm new here so excited to find this site!!!:thumbup:I was banded 3/30/10 first fill is 4/30/10. I have been glued to this site since I found it such a great resource!!!! I'm in for the challenge I joined alittle late but lets try for 12 hope I can do it!!!

Hey guys, I dont think I explained how to use the spread sheet properly, each week you need to enter in how much you have lost, not your weight. If you have lost 2 pounds then type in -2.

this should make the ending weight equal your current weight.

If, like me you have put on weight, you put it just as a positive. I.e i put on .52, therefore its a positive.

If your using Kilos and you need to quickly convert into pounds theres a little section up the top where you can put in how many Kilos you weight, and then translate it to pounds, or how many kilos you lost and it will calculate it into pounds.... NOTE this does not work for the reverse, so please dont put in how many pounds you weight and expect it to calculate the amount of kilos you weight.

Down the bottom its going to calculate how far away we all are from our goal as a group effort.

I will delete people at the end of the challenge who havent updated at all so we can get a good idea of how much we all pledged and how much we have actually lost.

As a group we are pledging to loose 271 pounds! Thats me! Come on people lets loose me!

Ive also put a nice little light blue square down the bottom that shows what percentage of our goal we have done. Seeing how its not even monday and only 2 people have weight in (one being a small gain, hopefully tomorrow the official weigh in day will present a loss) its only .4% but... monday it should increase with everyones brilliant losses!

Im in for 10 that would put me at 217 and make 21 pounds lost since my surgery on march 25th 2010!!!

I'm in as well I will go with 10 pounds.....current weigh is 215 so I'm ready....

I just updated the spreadsheet for my 2 lb loss this week.

Darn, only down a pound, but I get a fill on Wednesday so maybe that will help!

2 lbs loss this week! : ) (however, I think it should be more, but due to my cycle taking its sweet ol' time, hard-tellin what I am retaining, lmao) KEEP PUSHING EVERYONE!

I've stayed the same, but it's TOM for me, so that's a victory in itself! :thumbup:

I lost 3 pounds this week! Getting outside is really helping me.

hey Leftover.... I am going on vacation starting on April 17 and will not be back until may 3. I will have a laptop with me and am hoping to have internet access but just in case, I might not be able to update mine until I return. I hope this will be alright.
