Thanks for creating the spreadsheet, @jibeirish ! If nobody wants the neck measurement, would it be possible to use that column for a running total of lbs lost (or gained!) each week?0

@xosummerrainxo are you trying to edit from your phone? If so, it wont let you, you need to edit from a tablet or pc.
If you install the Google sheets app you can edit from your phone. The first time I selected the spreadsheet link my phone prompted me to install the app, maybe yours will too @xosummerrainxo

myfitnesspal starting weight: 161.8
Challenge starting weight: 153.6
Today's weigh in: 149.2
Goal weight: 125.0
4.4 lbs lost this week.
12.6 lbs total loss
What I'm doing:
*Yoga every morning 20-30 minutes followed by 10-20 minute meditation (really helps keep you motivated. HIGHLY recommend)
*At least 8-11 glasses of water every day. (One of the most common reasons for fatigue is dehydration!! If your pee is not clear, you need more water. I drink at least 4 water bottles instead of pouring out glasses of water.)
*drink a bottle of water before I eat a meal
*Eat fruits and veggies instead of junk for snacks
*Trying not to eat many carbs (No bun on burgers, etc)
*Switched to turkey/chicken instead of beef, pork, etc. (No I haven't completely cut it out. Just substitute most of the time)
*Find something active to do every day. (Take kids to the park, go for a walk, etc.)

I am curious, what are you guys doing to lose weight? What's the action plan to complete the challenge besides diet?
I am setting myself a goal... Everyone has something different that works for them.
I am going to the gym 5 days a week. 30 minutes cardio followed by 30 minutes weight lifting 4 of those days, and 1 hour water aerobics on the 5th day.
On top of that I have been counting calories.

@alyssarhc delighted to see you! We weren't sure if you were coming back, theres 2 pages in the spreadsheet you can use the second one for challenges, I personally think if you set out a new one each week it will keep ppl motivated, im happy to help you out0

just one more thing to look at while losing weight is your BMI. this calculator uses age and sex as part of the calculation. http://www.smartbmicalculator.com0
