Default IP Holiday Mini Challenge ends Jan 1

The Ideal Protein Holiday Mini Challenge is up!

This challenge is short, just taking us to New Years Day. At that time, we'll start a new, 12-week challenge, just in time for all of the resolution-joiners.

Some of us want to drop a few lbs, some of us are remaining steadfast on our initial P1 journey, and others are rebooting. Whatever the reason, sticking with it thru the holidays is easier together!

Let's get going (or keep it going)!

Here are the rules. It helps to know how spreadsheets work.
Please read all of the following
For active 3fc participants on the Ideal Protein plan
Click the link to request access.
Access is NOT automated so be patient. You only need to request access to this challenge once.

I'll send you an email asking for your 3fc screen name. After you reply to that email with the requested information, you will be granted access and notified by email (not right away...I have to do it manually from my laptop, it doesn't work from my mobile devices. Please only send ONE request. Sending multiple requests only fills up my email box. It doesn't get you approved faster).

No one will see your email address except for me. I keep track of everyone on the list so when data disturbances happen, I know who to talk to or delete. During a previous challenge, someone kept changing/reformatting things & didn't respond to my requests to stop so I deleted them from the challenge. Last year, these challenges were "open" but trolls messed up the sheets too often so we had to "close" them & issue invitations <so sad people have nothing better to do in life>.

When granted access, put your 3fcscreen name on the next available row. (just click the first blank box in column A)
Then tab over to complete columns B, C.
Please don't add data to columns D,E,F,G (they're in color). They auto-calculate as you add info.
Please don't sort or otherwise re-format the challenge. Data has gotten all mixed up/lost when that happens.

Only type in the white spaces. Any columns that are highlighted with color will auto calculate. If your auto calculate doesn't work, just leave it be. I'll fix it. If you try to fill in missing numbers, I won't know the auto calculate isn't working.

Current weight goes in the "starting weight" column. Use your current WI.
First WI will be Sunday Dec 7. That will include all WIs from today until then.
If you joined late, just enter zeros in the WI columns that you missed.

ETA: Please only request access if you actually plan on participating. A LOT of people requested access before and never participated. No lurking! Only active participants!

One more edit: This is a spreadsheet. Please make sure you know how to use spreadsheets before you join.

I'm in! I started too late to join the Labor Day challenge so I'm glad you started a new one! 2014 is the year we end up lighter then when we started it, not heavier!

If no one objects, I'm in! I don't need to lose any more weight but I think it will be great to use this challenge to keep me on track to maintaining through the holidays. Plus, I'm a really good cheerleader!

Everyone who requested access and followed the directions has been added.
There are a handful of people I'm still waiting for their response to my email but as of 12:10 CT, we have 21 people who are "in" and 8 more from which I'm waiting for replies

From past experience, I anticipate over this first week that number will at least double.
