I'm in...been promising to los weight for 4 years, and not done it through lack of willpower. Hope this will be a catalyst.

I see a few people are planning on using MyFitnessPal. Anyone want to set up a group on there so you can see how well others are doing to encourage/shame you to keep on going?

That spread sheet. Just an idea, but couldn't you have an exercise log for each participant, on the second page, etc, etc ?.

Someone did start an STW group on MFP. I don't use MFP so can't provide a link. Think it may have been Grum, or Glupton1976 who set it up ????.

I'm in, lost nearly 4 stone with idiet last year but have put just over one of them back since the end of July.

Spreadsheet doesn't look right though - has someone borked it?

edit: it's not just me not seeing everyone then!

He'll be a hit with the chicks 😯

Is there a finger BMI ?, like an FMI, perhaps F-MI ?...

Very probably it was malicious (or let's say 'in jest') than an accident.

The only way around that is user authentication somehow.

The sheet usually won't load for me anyway, it just sits there "transferring".

The sheet has a change log and allows you to revert to earlier versions.
So I've put it back to b4 fat fingers got on the case 😉

The load time is crap however, as per matt above it spends minutes "transferring" before opening, google docs would be much better.

Try the ELF diet. Eat Less Food. Simples.

Nothing like using a catchphrase from an insurance advert, to really nail home ones point.

Got your attention though, didn't it? 😆

Well I've lost 14kg already according to the spreadsheet. Who'd have thought that last bit of Christmas pud was iDave friendly?

Here's my [url= http://pickled-hedgehog.com/?p=2795 ]take on the whole thing[/url]. Written when the wine embargo ended for a couple of days. The results on MFP were not pleasant. Anybody wants me I'll be hating strava for a couple of hours 😉

Battery has gone in the scales so not had a proper weigh in but starting my weight loss this week. I will modify my start weight when I get the battery in the scales.

I'm in! Never done this before but fatherhood and nearing 30 has meant that eating whatever I want as long as I ride seems to be a thing of the past. I've hit a ceiling training wise too so I'm looking at that little ring around my waist that has formed over the last year or two.

Started out at 78kg last week. 76.5kg this week. Goal is 69kg by my 30th (end of March in case you're buying :wink:)

Spreadsheet seemed incredibly slow - kept saying the connection had failed yada yada yada.

Half a kilo dropped in a week, that'll more than do. I usually find nothing happens the first couple of week then it falls off quickly for as long as I can manage the regime.

(Yeah the spreadsheet can be loading interminably slowly).

You'll also notice hangovers last longer and take less to instigate.

The only way is down I'm afraid.

Doris has bought new batteries for the scales! Unbelievably I was shopping with her and couldn't find any anywhere! Fortunately she did manage after about 3 seconds of looking. 🙂 I will have to weigh myself this evening and update the spreadsheet.
