The spreadsheet is locked. I can't get into it.

It doesn't seem to like to load on the first click. I just reloaded the page and it came up fine.

Just added myself and my goal, btw!

40# by Christmas, but I think I might already have some headway as I haven't weighed since being banded 2 weeks ago. :)

I'm definitely in. I can't see the spreadsheet at work because apparently my work blocks it, so I will add myself later.

I like longer challenges. I plan to lose 10 Lbs per month until I reach my goal. So by Christmas I should have lost 57 Lbs. I know I can do it, I lose really good when I put my heart and mind into it.

Good luck to all.

Sounds good to me! Also, I dont mean to pick but, how come it doesn't add, subtract and give us a total at the end? If I knew how I to fix it I would. :thumbup: Sorry. Don't mean to be a pain. I do appreciate you making the spreadsheet, lauragshsu :)

Hi Amy - I put formulas in the total lost column and current weight column so that it will add the the total weight lost and calculate the current weight. You can copy those formulas for your row if you want. I just didn't want to assume everyone would want it.

I'm terrible w/ Excel... Would you be able to do it for me? :thumbup:

I'd really appreciate it! :)

EDIT: Nevermind! I figured it out! Thanks anyway! :car:

And again...one more "pick" hehe sorry! But...if the challenge started on July 1st (am I wrong about that?) how come the first box starts w/ July 1st. Shouldn't it start with the following week because we can't have a loss on the same day we started the challenge, know what I mean? Am I getting it wrong. Sorry to be such an annoyance. :drool:

if you started on July 1, you won't have a loss, but it won't hurt to have the same number recorded twice. (Some of us started a week ago.)

Let's give Laura a break. It's a personal challenge--so we can accept some responsibility for the mechanics for ourselves.

I believe most of us started last sunday or Monday. I weigh in every Friday, so I'm just using that as the weight I record.

Thank you! That's all I wanted to know.

Could you do this for me. Not sure how this is done, not too good with this stuff. I already entered for today.

Thanks Joyce

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
