Correction, the one I found, only goes through 2020 because the person overwrote the 2021 tab...but it's better than nothing!
-
I couldn't find a copy in my docs, but I clicked back on some old links and found a copy! It looks like someone accidentally used the existing spreadsheet for something else, gave it a new name, etc. Fortunately, the tabs have the old data. Unfortunately, the one I found only goes through mid 2021 so any data beyond that…

Wow! I was gone for a while and was hoping to join back in on the sheet. That's too bad that someone would delete it (and not very nice!) I'm going to see if I have a copy of the old sheet in my docs. Hmmm.

It's good to see people still talking here. I need to weigh in, but keep forgetting in the mornings, so I set my alarm to do it tomorrow morning. Now that travel seems to be open after all of the staying home during COVID restrictions, my life has gotten a bit crazy. (my husband travels a lot for work and I go with him…

I'm back (yes, again) and I'm happy to see some familiar people :) I've not been consistent ... as my life with three teenagers and one preteen is not helping with that. I've had a shift in focus where I'm wanting to make a concerted effort with my health. I've always cared about it, but if I'm totally honest, I've cared…

A new day and about to start a new week! I didn't weigh myself this morning, so I am going to hold off until Monday or Tuesday. I haven't been eating poorly, per se, but I have not been eating what I need to in order to lose weight. I made it to the gym for a short while yesterday and had a long walk, so that is progress.…

I missed that people are active on this thread again! I'm glad there are people "talking" here. It helps when I have people to check in with. I'm 51, and have about 35 lbs to lose. We have four kids, girls ages 19, 17, 16 and 11. I have really struggled with my weight over the past several years. I know that I am dealing…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY STORMY! We are so fortunate to be in this group with you!! After it being hit or miss, I'm back in the gym this week (3 times!) and it feels really good. Today I actually looked forward to going which is nice. It helps that one of our daughters (16) goes with me. I still have a few things in my diet I need…

Here I go again! Holidays are over and I just got back from our annual winter vacation, kids are back in school and I'm back at work and it's time to get serious (once again). Happy to see some familiar people and I hope everyone is doing well. Unfortunately, I have about 40lbs to lose. I am flexible on my goal weight…

For those that want to join our journey in logging your weight on our monthly spreadsheet for accountability and encouragement, here is the link. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CuInqf5xw3sdIV2ZBdztT9AqWqfyBPRgEJ5I_BpuPxE/edit?usp=sharing The link was recently updated because we lost access to our existing…

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CuInqf5xw3sdIV2ZBdztT9AqWqfyBPRgEJ5I_BpuPxE/edit?usp=sharing Here is the link to the new spreadsheet that will allow us access! I have updated some formulas, but it could still use some work on setting up some if/then formulas because some of the totals don't populate until the…

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CuInqf5xw3sdIV2ZBdztT9AqWqfyBPRgEJ5I_BpuPxE/edit?usp=sharing Here is the link to the new spreadsheet that should be accessible by all. It still needs some work in the formulas, changing things to "if/then" because, for example, if someone does not enter their weight for a week, the…

Stormy - I've always been a big fan of yours! (Thanks for not rubbing it in when the Astros lost-haha) I've appreciated how much you have done to keep this group going when others have had to step away. I love this forum and the fact that even when my crazy life pulls me away, each time I am back, my "friends" are here and…

I just replied in the November Challenge thread and offered to fix it up so we can use the same spreadsheet and not lose the data. I know Stormy has worked hard (and consistently!) to keep it up to date, so I don't want to step on his toes, but I'm happy to download it, resave it, clean up the new copy as needed and make…
-
@TXRebelle - I personally think that is helpful and not overstepping at all! @stormywxs288 - I am unable to copy the sheet as would usually be the case; but I AM able to download the entire thing (so past years are not lost) and re-save, invite people and make it public. It looks like it MAY need a little bit of adjusting…
-
Thank you Stormy! I have been traveling the past few weeks and have let things slide. We were able to go to games one and two of the World Series (which was fun!) and now I am in Florida for a family funeral. That is difficult, but it has been good to spend time with family I have not seen in years. It has been nice being…
-
I had the same issue. I was trying to copy it or determine who the original owner is, but I have had no luck yet. Not sure if @stormywxs288 or @baconslave know??

This is why I started weighing almost every day. If I weigh weekly and it happens to be a higher day due to water weight, etc., I get discouraged. Weighing daily allows me to see the ups and downs and also make more adjustments when I see trends. For me, that is more difficult if I only weigh once a week. Also, I don't…
-
I weigh every day and my weight is all over the place right now, but I am seeing (positive) body and energy level changes so I'm not worrying about the numbers on the scale right now. Especially since I am increasing my weights, I know I am building muscle. We'll see what next week shows! SW: 165 GW: 125 Sunday 10/3 -…

@WholeFoodsforLyfe 50 lbs is awesome! Congratulations! It is SO much easier when you aren't the only one in the house watching what you eat! One of our daughters started going to the gym with me so that is a huge help as well. Fortunately, my husband eats low carb, high protein so it makes things easier for me. I do get…

And yes, we are not stalled unless it is several weeks. Although one week of not losing definitely feels like a stall!!!
-
I would not up your fat, because that will up your calories as well. No matter what you do, if you are not in a calorie deficit, it will be virtually impossible to lose weight. You need to burn more than you are consuming. Everyone's body is different, but for me I have to do low carb (20-30 g per day), moderate fat (about…

Thank you for doing this @baconslave ! I am back with regularity now, and I noticed that there was no September thread on the page. Hope everything is okay with @chinatowninchina. It feels good being back to exercising and (mostly) eating well. My diet really suffers on the weekends or on special nights and I'm okay with…

What is your nephew's name? [/quote] His name is Jacob Davison. He's done well with EWU during his time there, but struggled some with injuries, etc. You were right about Kansas!
-
Based on the number I am losing each week, I don't think I'll make my March goal. But, I have not been depriving myself, so I am okay (for now) with the slow progress. (If I deprived myself and it was slow, that would be another matter!) MARCH 2021 Original SW: 165 Sunday 3/7 154 (Week: -.5 Month: -.5 Year: -11) Sunday…

Hey Stormy, I guess I never paid attention to what part of Washington you are in. My nephew plays basketball for EWU. It's his last year and they will be playing in March madness. Go Eagles! Congrats on your loss this week ... and I am also very excited for Spring!!!

Do you eat meat? Lean meats are great and most are zero carbs. Tuna (I like albacore packed in water), fish, no sugar peanut butter (in moderation).

@stormywxs288 Yay Stormy! (Thanks for always being encouraging, by the way) I'm glad your teams have started up, I know you enjoy them. Stay safe and have fun! I'm still debating the vaccination, but have not ruled it out. And, yes to peeling off lbs!
