    Well of course I'm in, thanks Ms PooPoo for cranking up another challenge. I started last year at this time with a Christmas challenge and had great success. This go, I'm close to my goal but I can't seem to quite get there without the support and friendly competition of the spreadsheet feedback. Fourth challenge in a row, let's go get em!!

    I just woke up, came here, and couldn't believe the response to the challenge.

    Welcome everyone!
    It is good to see familiar faces here and lots of new ones!

    Like others, I lost a bunch on the challenges that started last year with a Christmas challenge, and have gained a few back without the consistency, support, and friendly competition of a challenge.

    I live in Australia so when I am waking up, many of you will be settling in for the evening.

    I'll work on the spreadsheet today. I have to admit while I am not excel challenged, I seem to be google spreadsheet challenged but will have the spreadsheet up soon. I will get everyone's name, starting weight, goal weight, and BMI entered.

    What you need for the spreadsheet is:
    Name (screen name or nickname is fine)
    Start weight
    goal weight
    BMI

    How it works is each week, there will be a spot to enter your weight for the week and the spreadsheet will do the calculations for you. Voila!

    Some popular threads in the past have been Weekend Warriors, Fitness challenges, NSV, Goal reached. So feel feel to start a thread or mini challenge of your own as I know people have different goals of weight loss, maintaining, fitness, etc.

    If anyone wants to co-admin, moderate, let me know.

    Welcome again everyone! Let's have some fun!

    Perfect timing! :flowerforyou:

    I accidently washed my favorite beige work pants with a red shirt and had to go shopping. While most women love to shop, not me, not even when I was thin, now ugh!!!

    After trying on a ton of pants and being forced to look at myself in a bright mirror unclothed....:sad:

    I live in the mountains in WA state, I have been surrounded by fires for last 3 weeks all smokey out so my summer hiking to keep weight down has been out...need help!

    I gained back 10 lbs this year worrying about my older daughter going thru messy divorce...my getting fat is definitely not helping her so here I am!

    Name: Marla
    Weight: 143 1/2
    Goal: 120
    BMI: 28
