Happy 5th weigh-in everyone! (Or Week 6 :bigsmile: )
As much as I love goofy puns, I thought there should be a more scientific approach to looking at our numbers every week.
Our goal is 40 pounds by the first weigh-in of June (6/3) which evens out to 1.8 pounds lost per week.
As everyone has been saying, it's important to celebrate the progress we make, even if we don't reach this full amount. With that in mind, I broke down the weight range we'll lose if we continue on the same path. I think a lot of us are doing better than we though!
The spreadsheet this week (and in the weeks to follow) is broken down like this*** :
Green: On track to lose 50-69 pounds by Friday, 6/3 --ABOVE GOAL
~~Total lost so far = 11.4 - 15.0 lbs~~
~~~Average = 2.5+ pounds/wk~~~

sstewart36 (3- Orange), Guatemellon (3- Orange), Krys_T (3- Blue),
Orange: On track to lose 40-47 pounds by the end -- ON GOAL
~~Total lost so far = 9.0 - 11.3 lbs~~
~~~Average = 2lbs/wk~~~

Here is the link to the Tracking Form where we enter our weight each week:

https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Auxe1cQx0-KYdEx1Z0RnVXRfUEUzWUZjazV3ZXVzWWc&hl=en&authkey=CJum5OMJ#gid=0
(I have to log in to get your weight from the Tracking Form to the sheet, so please don't be concerned if it doesn't show up right away. I'll do it each week ASAP! :happy: )
(***These numbers were reached by dividing the weekly total by 5 (since this is the 5th week) to get the average weight lost each week, then multiplying that number by 22 (because there are 22 weeks in the challenge). All numbers are rounded to the 2nd decimal place, because I didn't think anyone wanted to deal with more exact numbers than that, lol.)
As much as I love goofy puns, I thought there should be a more scientific approach to looking at our numbers every week.

Cool thanks! You're keeping us inspired with these unique posts. :flowerforyou: I'm obsessed with finding new ways to lay out my progress, so I really do love these!0

Whooohooooo!!!!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
Thanks for all the hard work you put into these spreadsheets!!! Not only do you organize them but then you do an awesome job on the analysis also! I just noticed the extra tabs today with the definition of the color charts and one deleted, etc. I have been wondering for weeks what the colors means and just never noticed the other spreadsheets.
Girl you rock!! and a very smart young lady! I hope your profession has something to do with numbers and analysis.......:-) I am a credit analyst myself so I know you are putting a lot of work into these charts and the analysis!!!0 -
Wow! Thanks for taking the time to prepare that! It inspires me since I have been feeling VERY unmotivated! Today is a new day

What a great post to start the week. Very motiviating.0
-
Shelia, you're the one who inspired me to do this with your "a pound a week = 52 a year" comment. It got me thinking about how we should all look at the big picture, not just beat ourselves up for not losing weight like The Biggest Loser contestants! I too was surprised to see that even people who might not think they are doing that well are still on track for big numbers.
Everyone else, thank you so much for your encouragement! Especially Mollie, you inspire me every day. :flowerforyou:0 -
This is totally awesome! I need to step it up though!0

Thanks so much for breaking it down!!! - This really shows me that I am on track and just need to kick it into gear - I love this challenge and the committment and leadership that you gals have shown to the rest of the group!!! - I hope everyone has a fabulous week and see if we can't all push ourselves just a little bit harder to really shine Friday morning!!! - Here's to your good health!! :drinker:0

I can't thank you all of you enough for these groups and challenges. They have definitely helped me stay focused and mindful of my goals. There is a lot of positive peeps in this group and discussions. I will hate to see it end in June.
