      Wow. :-( Pretty obvious I haven't been able to exercise for the past 2 wks. UGH!!!!! Broken toe on right foot. Severely bruise (deep in the muscles) in my left foot. Been over 100 degrees for about a month so can't go walking outside or on the bike. The weather broke a couple of days ago. Now it's just the heat index that makes it close to 100 degrees. But i'm just gonna have to figure out some way to put on a tennis shoe on my right foot so I can do SOMETHING!

      I have started the process of updating the spreadsheet. If you are on page 7 or 8 you are updated. Everyone else will be done sometime today or tomorrow.

      Pre-warning that this might not get updated after this for a couple weeks. I just found out on Monday that my 2 month old has to have surgery so dealing with that and taking care of him comes first. Good luck everyone with reaching your goal this month! We already have a couple people that are almost to their goals.

      show previous quotes

      It's only a closed group because the OP created a spreadsheet for those who signed up to be in the group when it began. I'm sure it would be difficult to keep adding new members throughout the month. If I were you, I would still follow along and keep track of your results! I've also seen other groups like this that might not be "closed", so maybe there is one you could jump in with? Best of luck!

      Thank you for answering this for me :smile:

      Sad to see how many registered but no entries. I wa too late asking to join so quite frustrating - will keep my fingers crossed that you run it again in September (hint, hint.)

      PS - Lost 4lbs already (Yay!)

      Well done to all of you who shed more than you had hoped, strength to those who haven't.
      I am finding my target very hard, no matter how many calories I burn swimming and have over by the end of the week, those scales are not playing fair.:smile:
      I am looking forward to my measuring at the end of the month as I really hope that will give a good indication that the exercise has been worth it.
