    I change the sheet... once again.
    First of all, Lisa, found a problem in code.
    It was calculating weekly percentage loss on our new weight. so at the end we could never meet our goal!
    I changed it so as to have a steadily loss every week, the 1/13 of the total loss.
    Also, if someone loses a lot one week and no/less loss next week, the message "goal achieved" will be displayed.
    But the weekly percentage is for week's loss. calculated.

    Hope to made it better.
    Also I put the formulas in a protected sheet, cause someone messed up with them, and I really can't do it every now and then.

    On the top, I added one row that after new entries it finds the highest loser of the week, except from the last week that is looking up for the loser of the month. (by percentage)

    charm_quark, Good Luck on being in first place this week. I feel the challenge helped me from binging as well. I need to lose 17.6 but I am already almost a third of the way there.

    Good Luck to everyone this week.

    Best Wishes,
    Gina

    How many calories are you guys set at? I have eaten a net of 1600 calories the first week and gained almost 2 pounds, now I dropped to 1400 calories and lost 0.8 pounds but not even back to the weight from 2 weeks ago! Ive worked out hard almost everyday and havent exceeded my weekly goal....

    My food diary is open if you want to look, but i warn you i have just started the 5:2 diet so dont be shocked by a 600cal day lol

    so the plan is..... i eat whatever i want within reason 5 days a week (those days i also try to burn 300+cals) and 600 cal fast days 2 days a week (my fast days are wed and sun). i still try and eat 3 times a day those days but just low cal stuff.

    charm_quark is also trialling this diet but dont think either of us has had any result from it yet, time will tell x

    Hi there - I'm just seeing this thread and would like to join! I might not make the 6% but the additional support/motivation and accountability is what I really need right now!

    I'm eating at my average TDEE, which is 2031. As long as I stay near that then I can gradually lose. Prior to losing my thyroid 16 months ago, I averaged around 2400 daily. Needless to say, things have changed. But drastically cutting or reducing calories has never worked for me in terms of keeping it off. I find the slower I lose, the more apt it is to stay off. And the more I work out, the more I need to eat.

    I need to ask you,
    what about members who logged in their nicknames and starting weight and since then we haven't seen them again.
    I' m thinking that after 3 weeks of not logging we should delete them, so the spreadsheet won't be "too slow" sometimes.
