    I am so sorry, I seem to be blowing this thing up with posts. I am tech illiterate. Would someone put me on the spread sheet at 172 today? I am just starting keto tomorrow and this would be a great place for me to be accountable. I really appreciate any help I can get. My profile is my pic when I weighed 160 after losing 40 pounds. I have gained 12 back but what to see 140. Thanks

    Here is a link to the spreadsheet. I've added you. Now you should be able to add your information each Sunday when you weigh-in.

    I added myself! And will be updating my weight tomorrow so excited. I’ve been wanting to put my name on the spreadsheet for a while now (years) but every time I start keto I fail miserably. I have a good feeling about this time around. I’m making healthier choices and have decided to save the keto desserts for my time of the month if I even need them.

    I can't get the spreadsheet to work on my phone. Unfortunately, I can only use it on my PC. Not sure what to tell you about how to connect with your phone. Perhaps someone on this thread who uses their phone with the spreadsheet can advise us?

    This link does work on my PC:

    I downloaded google spreadsheet from the App Store to my phone. All I have to do now is click on the spreadsheet icon on my phone (it already has this spreadsheet on it) then all I do is enter my info.

    finally been brave enough to weigh myself and added myself to the spreadsheet. This is a fantastic idea and it will work great to keep me accountable. A big thanks to whoever did this.

    Hey everyone, here's the spreadsheet for easy logging/tracking. With the challenge growing, it'll be easier to see track our progress than scrolling through pages and pages in the monthly thread. Just pick an empty column on any of the sheets and input your info. It will be updated monthly. Let's reach those goals!

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15_Wm6tiqUTRwP65I8gZWwWjWVtGgvYyj8p2gMaiWi48/edit?usp=drivesdk

    Happy Logging!

    Hello again, old friends and a bunch of new ones! I did well here in 2018, losing just under 40 pounds while on keto, starting right at 210 lbs. Last year was a whirlwind of a divorce and a major job change where I went from 12+ hours on my feet every shift to anywhere from 40-60 hours a week at a desk or in the car. I admittedly got extremely lazy about eating whatever was quick and convenient and never logging in here. Those bad choices have added up to undoing a lot of the hard work of 2 years ago - not a great thing when I was still 20-30 pounds from my goal when I quit checking in! - so I'm back to try this again.

    Hi! I just joined the challenge on the spreadsheet; so I thought I would post here to introduce myself.

    SW: 193?
    CW: 150
    GW: 115
    Female/32/5'1"

    Around the end of 2016 I realized I had a weight problem. At that time I weighed somewhere around 200lbs but refused to step on the scale. Over the next 12-18 months I tried a few approaches to losing the weight and made a soft commitment to keto. I lost about 25 pounds, went on vacation, and never got back on track. March of 2018 brought me to a serious commitment to lose the weight, my starting weight was 193 (gained back all those pre-vaca LBs I lost in 2017), and by May 2019 I was down to 133; with only 18 pounds to go to my goal weight of 115. I stalled here and decided to commit to maintenance. Fast forward from May 2019 to now and I am back up to 150 ( insert sad face) due to what I believe is a slow progression of forgetting my healthy eating habits (quarantine and drinking my feelings over my rescheduled wedding and honeymoon didn't help) and not taking my daily walks. The sad reality of the 17 pounds I've gained back, is that when I return to work (in a week; full on panic mode here) NONE of my clothes will fit me. I have ballooned from a 2/4 petite to a 6/8 petite and rather than buy new clothes and make excuses; I decided to recommit to the keto lifestyle and find an accountability/support system. So, here I am. I am hoping to report a few pounds lost on the 31st. Thank you for being here and doing all of this as a group.

    @abardin87 Hi and welcome. I've copied and pasted your post into the May Monthly Challenge which is where we generally post. We tend to use this thread just to add to the spreadsheet which is why there aren't many posts on it. Please feel free to join us there as well! Sorry about the delayed Wedding.

    Hello folks! I'm a Keto returnee, looking forward to joining you on the lowcarb journey to joy. I tried to access the spreadsheet this morning but it's not loading? Also tried opening it in a new browser. Any ideas?

    I can't seem to get this spreadsheet to work on my phone for some reason? I'm not tech savvy enough to figure it out, but I did get it to work on my pc. I've used both microsoft edge and google chrome with success.

    BTW this is a companion spreadsheet for our keto monthly group. Check out our May Monthly Forum at this link https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10793765/may-challenge-2020#latest We just started a June version and will continue each month. Hope to see you there!

    Thought I'd re post this so the spreadsheet is easy to find.

    Hey I'm new. I tried to get mine added on there and I got it mostly correct (I added for May and June under the heading Simplecicada). Can you possibly check the formulas that I used for calculating and fix them if necessary and also help me do the right formula for working out my percentage? Appreciate you!!

    Sorry I have no idea! All I do is put in my weight and then change the accumulated total for the week and the % seems to automatically change. I'm guessing Stormy who looks after this part now will let you know.

    I try to monitor and update the spreadsheet at least once daily. If you find an error let me know and I'll try to get it right for you. I'd love to be smart and savvy enough to have the spreadsheet do these updates automatically but I'm not. So have patience and feel free to let me know if find a mistake I've overlooked. My aim is to keep it correct. I appreciate and value any help. Thanks
