Hi Lena,

The spreadsheet can only be updated by Vicky. Were you able to view the spreadsheet by clicking on her May Challenge link?

hi again and happy mothers day.......I weighed in today at 247 so i didnt lose much if anything i just signed up on friday.....so i will exercise more this week.....and try harder....have a good week see you lighter.........

Happy Mothers Day to al the Mom's!

Tracy checking in tonight at 248 lbs , -3 lbs this week. Although I am happy with that number, I need to work hard this week because I really didn't behave myself very well with eating and exercising like I should have!

Lady_Dragyn checking in. Down 1.0 to 279 - not as good as I would have liked, but considering I sat on my lazy duff and ate a few bad choices (did I mention this was going to be an emotionally draining month for me?) I'll take it :)
