As I’ve said last week, similar with my 15 Weeks Progress Challenge // Sep – Dec 2016, I will run a long-term monthly challenge. And, as all my previous challenges, this one too will be a Google Sheet file created by me, and embedded in a blog post: every time I will update the file, it will be automatically updated also on the blog.

Info about the Challenge:
– start-data will be from 1 October 2016
– is running for 15 months, until 31 December 2017 (well.. plus 1-2 weeks, to be everybody sober. 🙂 )
– sign up info: age, height (m), start weight (at 1 October 2016 / kg), goal weight (at 31 December 2017 / kg). I’m sorry, only meters & kilograms will be the reporting system.
– optional, at sign-up, you can say a few words about yourself, like from which part of the world are you writing, your dieting history and current status, your plans for the next 15 months.. etc.
– info needed every first calendar day of the next 15 months (so next dead-line is 1 November): current weight (kg). Optional, you can also write a few words about the weight loss evolution in the previous month and plans for the next one.
– please note that 2 consecutive or 3 non-consecutive missing reports means that you do not longer wish to participate in the challenge and your name will be removed from the list.
– also please note: I update the file mostly from my email notifications. So if you have entered a wrong number, please-please-pretty-please do not use the Edit-message-option of the forum to correct, because 1.000% I will not compare the numbers from my email-notifications with the ones posted finally on forum. Better to write in another post: “the correct weight is xy.z.”, and I will easily update from this new email-notification. Thank you very much for your understanding!
– I will update the sheet on max 48 hours from dead-line.
– the sheet calculates: Goal Progress: Lost weight until the current month, Remaining to be lost, % Achieved Goal versus % Time Past. If your progress is good ( %Goal > %Time ) the numbers are purple. If your progress is behind time, the numbers are orange. But you could choose a smaller goal, to see only purple numbers. 🙂
– you can easily revisit the weight of the past months, by scrolling at the right of the table.
– starting Month 4 (to have some start data for the Trend Line), every participant will have his own Weight Loss and Trend Chart, similar with the ones (under the table) from 15 Weeks Progress Challenge // Sep – Dec 2016.
– the last row of the table is an average of the above values: the average age of the participants in the challenge, the average starting weight, the average weight lost until the current month, and so on.
– the order in the list will be alphabetical (sort field “name”).
– you can look at 15 Weeks Progress Challenge // Sep – Dec 2016 as a Demo for this 15 Months Progress Challenge.
– minimum number of participants to run the challenge is 3.

If anyone wishes more details, I’m happy to respond.

Good Luck!

38 years old, writting from Germany.
Height = 1.65 m
Weight at 1 Oct = 71.7 kg
Goal = 50 kg (a girl can dream)

I have a binge eating disorder for more than 10 years and many health problems because of that. I hope to be able to control it in the next 3-6 months (by trying different fasting patterns / %macros) and starting finally to lose (I’ve been stuck in 71-73 kg plateau for the last 2 years).

Welcome Violet. I’ve thought you’ve changed your mind. 🙂

Please post “to be on the record” also here, all the sign-up info:

– sign up info: age, height (m), start weight (at 1 October 2016 / kg), goal weight (at 31 December 2017 / kg). I’m sorry, only meters & kilograms will be the reporting system.
– optional, at sign-up, you can say a few words about yourself, like from which part of the world are you writing, your dieting history and current status, your plans for the next 15 months.. etc.

Thanks!

73.7

Also hope to stay under 74 in December.

Next weight-report can be posted a week before or a week after 1 Jan 2017.

🎄🎁🎆

I do not want to weigh in until February, so I will report 73.9 for December and take a break for the next 6 weeks.

🎁🎄🎂

Up to around 76 after more than a week of overeating at PMS and down again to around 72.5. Hope next month to have less variation.

See you in a month. Good luck!

Around 72. Not much loss (0.5), but the good news is that I did not had large variations (under very stressful conditions of my personal life). Max was 72.5, which is awesome.

Hope to go to at least 71 in the next 4 weeks.

Wish you health, Annach! 🌞

Down to 70.5 and back again to 72.5==>72.0. Crazy hunger in the last 2 weeks. Too many stressors, I think. For May I will change my approach (less fasting), and see how it goes.

I hope you’ve had a fast and easy recovery, Annach.🌷

I think the fluctuation is directly related to the lack of sleep. And PMS 90%. Life.

71 kg now. But I’ve seen also 69.7 kg last week, a weight last seen on Nov 2014. So the trend is surely going down. But because the progress is soooooo slow, I’ve decided not to record it monthly anymore. It kind of demotivates me, and now I just want to ignore the whole weight-thing. So this is gonna be the last update at least for the next 6 months.

Wish you well Annach, and maybe will read each other with positive updates by the end of the year.🌷
