Hey Gang! Sorry I'm dropping the ball, I went out of town over the weekend and thought I'd catch up on the stats and I just didn't even touch my computer. Oh well, back in the swing of things and I input the weigh ins for Week 1 6/6/11 here's the data: We lost 17 members but all are welcome back when you come back and…

No worries, I have you on the list, you'll see it up there next week! Come back and post your weight next Monday and every Monday until July 4th Good luck on your goal! --Heidi

Hey Everyone! So here we go! The Personal Independence Day Challenge is underway! Here is the compiled list of everyone participating so far. We will most likely gain a few more and lose a few over the next 5 weeks, I hope we gain more than we lose (people that is, :laugh: not lbs!) of the 55 peeps that have posted their…

Hey Gang! Keep those Starting Weigh ins coming in! The list is growing as I type! But I fear I have confused some of you, todays posting is just your Starting Weight (SW), your weight as of today, and your Goal weight (GW) the amount you want to lose by July 4th. This is not week 1. Week 1 weigh in will be next Monday. I…

Well I'm 3lbs short of this goal but I still lost 13 pounds this challenge with a weeks vacation smack dab in the middle of it! I'm glad to know that it only takes a week or so to get back to where I started when I…

SW 186 WK#1 5/1/11 186 WK#2 5/8/11 175 WK#3 5/15/11 174 WK#4 5/22/11 178 WK#5 5/29/11 GW 170 Oops! Well I'm sure I'll lose it this week, I just got off a plane and I'm on my period so I'm sure the 4 pound gain is mostly water. I also had copious amounts of alcohol last week during the reunion, but it could have been worse,…

Well I had a "sad' day yesterday, as I've begun to refer to them. I had a comfort food binge. Ate a whole box of of Little Debbie Cookies :frown: But I did log them into my journal and pretty much doubled my calories, however I know it's just a minor set back. I'm leaving today to go back home for the week. It's our annual…

Well, thank goodness, I lost all the weight I gained while away, 11 pounds! Must have been all water bloat 'cause that's not likely to happen again! But I'm stoked! This week my goal is to get back to exercising! Hope you all have a fabulous Mother's Day weekend! --Heidi

This is so great! I'm so happy that y'all stayed together and are still supporting one another! I fell off the wagon big time, while I was up in Seattle with my family it was nothing but comfort foods, carbs and wine and more carbs! I ended up gaining 11 pounds in 2 1/2 weeks! I got back to Austin last week and went into…

Hey everyone, I'm sorry I have dropped the ball this past week. My Dad passed away unexpectedly last Monday and I've been out of town and not with it this past week. I hope that you've all been able to stay on task and get closer to your goals! I'll probably not be able keep up with the list for the rest of this challenge.…

Toodleton - did you change your name? I don't have you on this challenge list?

Ok Y'all! Lets do this! We only lost 10 peeps this week, hopefully they will find their way back. However of the 58 people that weighed in for week 2 we lost a total of.... 82.5 Pounds! Way to go everyone, that makes our total so far.... 198lbs! I hope y'all are having a good start to your week! If not, it's not too late…

Hey Gang, so in filling out the week 2 weigh ins I saw a couple people who posted both their week 1 and 2 together and I had taken your name off the list, I'm not sure if i somehow missed your week 1 or if you were late in posting week 1, it all got a bit confusing because I waited so long to get the list up that I was…

hey Y'all! Sorry, had some technical difficulties this week but I seem to be back on board. Keep your week 2 weigh ins rolling in and in the mean time here's the progress list from week 1. We lost about 30 people right off the bat but hopefully they'll trickle back in. No matter though, of the 65 remaining members we still…

Gosh, I'm sorry everyone, I promised to get the progress list up by Tuesday and here it is Friday, biggest problem was that the list is saved on my laptop and I left the power chord to it at one of my schools on Tuesday so my computer has been dead since then and I've just been logging in on my iPhone App, but I got the…

Thanks guys, it's so weird, I know it's a different place for everyone, but it's like you get to a weight, that's not your ultimate goal weight but you start to feel good about where you're at and start taking too many liberties, ya know what I mean? Like I'm in a size 10 jean which somehow to me sounds like a good size to…

Hey Everyone! Sounds like lots of you had really great weeks! Lots of progress, still have about half of the members not weighing in yet so I'll give it until tomorrow night for them to weigh in before I post the list and add up our progress as a group. As for me, here's my situation that I would like to confess and…

What is your GW? (for this challenge)

Hey Y'all! Just wanted to let those that were in the St. Patty's Day Challenge know that I finally got the last weigh in list posted. We lost over a Dozen members in that last week, I think lots of people were struggling and sadly gave up but hopefully they've found new motivation. Anyway here's the link so you can see the…

Well, as the 500th post we'll close this one out, we lost several members in the last week and sounds as though we all struggled with the last week, down to only 41 members but even still as a group we lost a collective total of... 32 Pounds! We started with 91 members and a goal of 630 pounds we lost 50 of those members,…

Wow! in the 10 minutes it took me to write that last posting we got 5 new members and a couple more after it as well! Yay! Welcome! I am adding y'all to the list and you'll see your name on the Week 1 progress list as long as you also check back in this Sunday and post your Current Weight (CW) don't forget! Glad to have…

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Easter Challenge! I've finally compiled the list with everyone's Starting Weight (SW) and their goal weight (GW) for the challenge. If your name is not on the list it's because you did not post one or the other or both of those pieces of information and believe me I looked, but I wasn't going…

Hey Y'all! Keep those final weigh ins coming in... hopefully I'll get the final list posted by the end of the weekend! We are nearing the 500th post which will start a new chapter of this thread and I want everyone to be able to find us so remember just go to the last page and the last post and you'll see a link to the…

Hey Everyone! I started the Topic for the Easter Challenge, we'll start it up on Sunday March 20th, give everyone a few days to gear up for it after final weigh in tomorrow for the St. Patty's Day Challenge. Here's the link so you can bump it now and comeback on Sunday to post your CW and GW for the challenge! Hope to see…

Sorry the list is so late, I've been busy with SXSW and didn't have time to email the dozens of people who didn't/couldn't weigh in so I was waiting for the last possible moment. Like the day before our final weigh in. :smooched: So hopefully you all did great this week! Remember we will most likely reach our 500th post as…

So I still haven't posted the list because we have almost half (like 40 people) the members not weighing in, I can only send out 5 emails every 10 minutes and no more than 25 emails in a day. So check back soon!

[/quote] I think that Brandy was referring to this spreadsheet: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AjIvknDa_6H8dHhxMUF3Z18yTEZ6YVpBNk4wYklQSEE&hl=en&authkey=COmtqq0J#gid=0 One of the participants in the Valentine's Day Challenge started that spreadsheet, and it was able to calculate percentage weight loss and rank…

I know that I would rather have a trainer that knows where I'm coming from. Someone who's been there, and hey WTF you just had a baby! What's my excuse! :laugh: I'm glad you are there doing what you do, inspiring people to be healthier, fitter, better versions of themselves. You are making the world a better place and the…

Yes, I am but I only post the spreadsheet once a week. It usually goes up around Sunday or monday because it takes that long to get everyone to weigh in. It's hard to miss because it's a huge list, and it has to be there after your last post because that's where I get the info to post the updated list, so I don't know how…
