I know I said I wasn't very comp. lit. but I'm not usually that bad. I do know how to change font, size and colour and it usually works any other time. It could be I don't know how to use this MacBook!!!
I'll persevere and eventually get it sorted.
Artist John Sorry my weight will not stand out until I get to the bottom of this.
Lami, I'm not sure if it's the same thing but I was not able to use the bold or underline buttons, it would give me an error every time but Nir told me it might be because I had changed from explorer 7.0 to 8.0 so I removed 8.0 and went back to 7.0 on one of my computers and sure enough that was the problem. Right now I'm on my lap top and I can't use those features but I have no problem now on the PC which is back at 7.0. You may have a different problem but I thought I'd let you know one more possible fix.

| I'll try a different computer. I had just began to think it could be something to do with my MacBook. I'll keep going till I get to the bottom of it.

Just to let EVERYONE know it is my Macbook laptop and not my incompetence!!!! I'm using my work laptop and I can change the size and colour. It's good to get to the bottom of the problem. If ever I see little abbreviation again I'll know exactly what's wrong.
BIG HUGE THANKS TO EVERYONE TO TRIED TO HELP.
When last on the scales I weighed
152lb

Hope that is ok with everyone...
My been monitoring my eating habits the last few days and I seem to have an afternoon binging problem going on. So, I am going to try and work on that this week and see what kind of difference that makes in my weight..

Ah Ah found a way of getting myself of the bottom of the league table by sorting by BMI.
Will have a week of tallest to shortest and get myself to the top of the table

Weight update(posting a day late)
7-30-09 8:00 AM
 347.20lbs
Had a sorta slow week as far as weight loss in concerned..Not as much as i have been having..but I guess 2.8lbs is a lot better than nothing..And a WHOLE lot better than +3 pounds! lol
Hey John, not that it really matters, but My height is 6'3''(i know i posted 6'2'' but that was just a guess, i had a friend measure me)
But you have me at 72 inches which is 6' even. So i should be at 75inches!!! I just dont like seeing my BMI higher than it should be!! Come on John I've been working really hard for the last couple of months and you're lying about my BMI!! Thats not very nice!

Hi Clagger. Will sort it asap. I was proud of being the tallest, but alas no more
You shot from top to bottom on bmi. Give it a couple of days and I will revert to weight lost and put you back on top I hate being bottom.
Your doing fine and remember the old saying it's a marathon and not a sprint. You are doing good, keep it up

ok so looking at the chart that you have very well illustrated, most of the members of this challenge are of a healthy bmi.. i'll have to check the range again, but goes to show that no one is ever happy with what and who they are, including myself..

Weight today is:
126.6
I'm up 0.2 lbs from last week. I expected the weight loss to slow down significantly, since you always lose more when you first start a diet, but I didn't think that I'd actually gain. I've been eating about the same amount of calories a day since I started, but I guess I'll have to cut back more if I want the weight loss to continue. Have others had this experience?

Whitegremlin the range for normal bmi is 18.5 - 24.9.
For me and only me I feel that I bmi of 22.5 will have me at an ideal weight of 175lbs for a 6' 2" male aged 51 yrs. Others may want to go lower. I am currently 24.9 just in normal.
So there are 30 of us in the challenge and only 6 at 22.5 or below. 22.5 being my target.

Last night I was 55kg at bedtime - this 'morning' I'm 52kg but as I skipped breakfast and waited till 11.30am to weigh myself you could argue I manipulated my circumstances to see a lower number. I'll shout my weigh-in as the mid-point = so that means still 53.5kg (117.8lb). By the way I've increased my calories to the next stage - now 1900 this last few days.

Hmm...I have just read through the post and cane see my last reply?! Think my comp must have been playing up, cause Ive lost other bits and bobs.
Anyways, I kinda wish I didnt have to post, but I only am cause if I dont report something I'll get booted out of the challenge
248lbs ...yuk, yuk, yuk! Not even really sure what I have done that is so bad? Thats 5.3lbs UP! Never mind, I'll take inspiration from Artist John and battle onwards (and hopefully downwards). x

Well this morning I was a dissapointing 165 but I weigh myself daily and have been fluctuating between 161 and 165 all week long (last thursday, 161, friday, 165, saturday, 163, sunday, 161, today, 165). I've been dehydrated the last week too, which counts for some of the extreme day-to-day fluctuation. Anyway, my offical reported weight will be the average:
163.
still ick.

I am sorry Artistjohn, I, like I sense others who have gained, was in a hurry to just get that number down and stop looking at it.
Its a strain on me too make it into lbs, in the first challenge I was in Nir also used kg so it wasn't a problem.
Anyway I think I will weigh in tomorrow or wednesday, this is depending on weither or not I weigh myself tomorrow, so let's hope its good

I just spent the long weekend camping. It was our first time with our almost two year old. Of course it was medieval camping so it involved wearing floor length dresses and snug lacing. There was nothing medieval about the food though. Lots of high calorie food, late night hot chocolate and not a veggie to be found means that my weight loss for this week is very tiny.

Ok, I am posting my weight a day early. This mornings weigh in was 133.6...
So very happy with that. Not very happy about the way I got to it. I have had the flu this week. So, the challenge will be keeping it off after a full recovery.
Wish me luck...cause I am already getting my appetite back..

See now doesn't that look so much better artistjohn? Being in the yellow
But I've lost 3.6% of me... That is kind of freaky. It is hard to imagine that parts of your body are gone, even though it IS fat.

So sorry I haven't been able to post (or diet). We had lightening hit near our home or possibly our satellites and it destroyed my computer, internet, fax machine, furnace, satellites ... all kinds of stuff. Plus it scared the dickens out of me.
Weight is 133.5

Yay! A really good loss to report this week. I may not make it to red before the challenge ends but I'm sure that I can at least make it to orange.
