      Hey guys
      So I've been trying to make the spreadsheet with my phone all day but it's been proving difficult. My laptop is faulty for now. I will appreciate if some1 can make one for the group. If not we can just keep on posting our weigh in.
      Thanks

      Getting back on MFP and joining a few challenge boards to help stay engaged with the website and community! Have been "maintaining" at 30-50 lb overweight for years and have been saying for years that I want to get rid of it and maintain at a more healthy level so this HAS to be the year! There are only 5 months left in the year... It's time to really buckle down.
