Below is my graph from last month (in Australia kilograms is the normal weight, not pounds - each kilogram is approximately 2.2 pounds).
Note how the blue line jumps around a lot, but the orange line (average of 7 days) is much smoother. Each day's weight is JUST a data point. The 7 day trend is what gets focused on.
@looneycatblue. Yes it is a simple excel graph. 3 columns (date, weight, 7 day average weight). The 7 day average weight is =SUM(day-3 weight:day+3 weight)/7 (eg: =SUM(B2:B8)/7 )
You need to copy in your record values from somewhere (I record daily on MFP, simple button to register todays weight).
Don't know how to share an excel file in the forum unless I make an open google sheet. Will look at doing that later today and see if it has the graphing functions.
(btw, my weight record from this morning was 64.1kg, a small jump up from yesterday. I am estimating that with the cooler weather yesterday (and poor sleep last night) that I was not as dehydrated this morning as I have been the past few warm days).

@fe452436, since you missed your week 5 weigh-in for December, and your weigh-in day is Friday, I'm asking @craigo3154 if this should be your starting weight for January and then Friday, when you weigh in, that will be your official week 1 weight. Craig?0

As @fe452436. posted this, her starting weight will be altered to 205 (as this was her last weight for December, not Week 1 January.
Jan week 1 weight will be Jan 10 (assuming Friday is still the desired weigh in day).

@craigo3154, thanks for clarifying.
@lacatgirl, all team members have different weigh-in days. To help you remember, I post a reminder every morning, tagging those team members who are scheduled to weigh-in that day. You'll weigh-in tomorrow morning and then report what your weigh-in is, using this template:

Exercised?: Yes (3 km walk in 23 mins)
Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
Shorter walk today as very late.
Also saw an Osteo about my sore rib. Turns out it is likely strained instead of cracked. Been painful since Dec 24. Not much you can do for ribs anyway (as I knew).
Daughter has had a very up and down day from last night through today. Fortunately she see the psychologist tomorrow.
The second mini-challenge is to do 1 minute of mindful breathing.
Mindful breathing is sitting/standing/lying still and concentrating just on your breathing and ignoring all other thoughts:- How many seconds inhale?
- How many seconds exhale?
- How long between inhale and exhale?
- Do you breath through you mouth or your nose?
- What does the air feel like as you inhale and exhale?
It is like a mini focused meditation. But only for a minute. Set a timer before you start (eg. on your phone).
This helps brief exercise will help you focus on other things during the day.
