The July team threads are up! Please remember to post here about anything that needs to be shared with the moderators and/or other captains. Please also drop by any time, particularly if you have any ideas or questions. Spreadsheets will be out shortly. Please remember that this month, we are using the optional addition to the weigh in format called LOSS TO DATE or LTD.

Have a good July everyone!

    Happy day 1 of the July Challenge :smile:

    I know tons of people are having trouble with access to the community pages in MFP, so there were lots of NWIs this morning. I'm happy to remove them if/when people get back and catch up. Same with the drops - if they were just unable to get on the site and they come back, they will easily be re-instated. Just let me know!

    As always, please let me know if there are any errors or problems with the spreadsheets. Sometimes the copying process from month to month goes a bit askew...

    Keep well and have a great month! Hopefully better than week 4 of June! One of our weaker efforts, except for the amazing Team WeightNoMore - they put the rest of us to shame this week. We'll catch up this week, I hope!

    This week's F2F challenge is up - all about measuring and making sure we're really eating what and how much we think we are!

    Should I put her in support team, or drop her and she can come back by request later?

    Lots of activity on team WNM this morning. Mrsbell8well would like to move to the goal zone. After losing 50 lbs, she wants to take some time to heal her back. We can use her current weight of 151.6 and her goal weight range at this point is 140 to 155 lbs. This is a wider weight range for her goal, but it will help with the physical healing that she needs to do. Thanks!

    Hi all - thanks for all the updates! It has been a busy couple of days. I'll make all these changes and check the challenge for the new people. I put one in last night, and I'll go look for any more this evening.

    I would put her in support for this month because it is a longer month and hopefully she comes back.

    Hello all Captains!

    Last week, with all the MFP problems for people to get onto the discussions and groups, there were many NWIs. That means it will be their 2nd NWI this week and they risk being dropped if they miss again. If your team has any of these, could you please get in touch by message and get their updates or find out if they have quit? Thanks!

    @jugar Will do...I haven't received a response from DreaRN15/Team TrimStones and have sent her messages three times both in the chatroom and privately. Not sure what to tell you on that one...will follow up with any others.

    Hello everyone --

    The F2F Moderators have an announcement that is both sad and happy. We would like to thank Lisa @cafelelia for her wonderful service as a Moderator since December. Lisa has decided to step down due to family and professional life, the changes due to COVID-19, and wanting to concentrate her energies on her own wonderful team, WeightNoMore. We will miss her wise words, her awareness of the intricacies of the human interactions in a community such as F2F, and her wonderful sense of humour. It was fantastic working together, particularly through the big changes from December to January, and I'm sure we'll be asking her advice from time to time even if she is no longer taking on the weekly tasks she has so aptly performed.

    Thank you Lisa! We will miss you as Moderator, but your team will be extra happy to have you all to themselves!

    Best wishes from @jugar @Beka3695 and @TeresaW1020 - I am sure everyone on F2F wishes you well Lisa!!!!

    @Beka3695 Emmajhare/Team Trimstones just passed the 50 lb loss mark.

    She's lost 52.2 lbs so far as of Sunday's weigh in. Please put her on your recognition list...thanks!

    Hi @jugar & Beka, Jessica’s post raises a good question. Are we recognizing weight milestones in terms of lbs lost (eg 25, 50, 75, 100 etc), or are we recognizing milestones in terms of how much members weigh like in your post (eg under 250, under 225 etc). Thanks, Lisa
