    @mram3582 not going to lie, that made me laugh. You definitely appeal to my inner nerd, and well outer nerd, oh hell, I guess the secret's out, I'm a nerd.

    @marieamethyst You guys have been cracking me up, it's been a while since I've had a chance to look at my steam games and I was looking at Raft, which I don't have. Is it just me or does Raft really look like Minecraft but on a raft? I was never really a fan of Minecraft....although, my husband lost a few days to that game lol.

    @mram3585 lol, I would actually classify myself as a geek, normal people would say nerd, but there is definitely a difference lol. I built my badass gaming computer, and also my husbands, but he won't let me take credit for it since he stood over me watching me do it, claiming his hands were too big to put it together, and wired my entire house to be awesome. My husband is definitely a nerd, he plays magic the gathering...I can't see the value in that game, and ugh, who wants to touch cards, and move them around, I want the work to be done from a keyboard lol.
    Oh and did I mention that I'm a certified pc tech?!

    Hey, I am just happy that I haven't burned down my house yet! OK, we put the mirror in and laid the monitor down, put in mirror mode...why aren't my micro switches working...tries EVERYTHING...finally, reverses polarity. IT WORKS!! Why does it work?? That shouldn't have anything to do with it?? My house is going to burn down isn't it :(

    @RedStickdad Did you want to use the weight you took today from the new scale? I can update it, that way you won't start with a gain?

    @AB0215 I can help enter weights and do techie stuff for Nov if you still need someone. I'm not very good at the whole cheer leading thing, but techie stuff is no problem.

    @mram3582 I think I will take you up on the offer, I sent you a message.

    @AB0215 I am actually having mfp techie problems right now. I use the website and apparently the tech monkeys are doing maintenance...and by maintenance: I can't receive/send messages, log water, complete my diary, and sometimes I can make comments in my news feed.--if they let me log on at all. This is day 2 of "We're sorry, the site is temporarily closed for maintenance" messages. I do not have a message from you either.

    @mram3522 I get that too, and usually if I just refresh it shoes up. I was going to say that I will need an email address from you (preferably gmail) to give you editor access to the spreadsheet and I also use a spreadsheet to track the daily posts if you wouldn't mind helping me keep track of those too. If you don't want to post that and can't send me a message, you can post it in the captains quarters for me. or go to the november spreadsheet and request access from me and let me know it's you.

    @AB0215 I can do that. When my husband gets home, I will inform him that I am jacking his gmail since it has been so long since I used mine that I can't even remember it :/ I still can't send messages right now...they just won't load at all.

    I usually go way over on calories at least once or twice a month. If I notice that I am eating more than I want to, I usually go brush, floss, and use mouthwash. 1) I'm lazy and don't want to go through the routine again. 2) EVERYTHING tastes nasty after mouthwash. Instant appetite curb o:)

    @mram3582 You can use any email address, you just have to set up as a google account.

    Hey guys, I guess since I'll be hanging out with you guys, I'll go ahead and share a little about myself.

    Currently I'm training for an Olympic style weightlifting meet, which is in less than 2 weeks. (ahh, my brain is in a little bit of a freak out mode right now, 2 weeks isn't long!) Training has me pretty busy right now as it's crunch time. I'm currently training 1-2 hours a day for 4-6 days of the week.
    I'm 32, been trying to get down to a healthier weight for a long time, but I'm finally getting there, I started in 2016 at my all time heaviest weight of almost 241 lbs on a 4'10" frame, not good. I'm down 73 lbs at this point and I still have a way to go, but I'm so much healthier (and happier) now. I can run around with my 4 year old niece now, and there's no way that old me could have done that. I have to credit a lot of my success to being here, and having a great support system in my team.

    I hope you guys all find what you need here, I know it's really helped me dramatically along the way. Let me know if I can help!

    I'd like to get to know you guys a bit better, I'd like to invite everyone to share one thing about themselves!
