    @jugar Can you please excuse Caitlin @ kittengirl from weigh-in this week AND change her to Mondays starting next week. She has had an allergic reaction to eggs.

    @jugar Please change kmfeig87/Trimstones from NWI to LWI. I've already updated the missing weigh in for her. Thanks!

    @jugar Brittcasey87/trimstones would like to be placed on the support team for now. She's fighting COVID.
    Thanks!

    Can you excuse dabbers18 as she was not feeling well and didn’t weigh in on Sunday? Two people on the team changed their username. I changed it in the spreadsheet but do I have to let you know here also. Thanks!

    Name changes are not a problem - the only time you'd have to let me know is when it is still during the registration time and I might think it is 2 different people. Thanks!

    You are the sweetest! Thanks for checking up - I know @beka3695 is crazy busy, but I am floating along well up here, getting things ready for winter, and trying to finish a couple of projects. I hope you are doing great too!

    Can you change Z10rta to a late weigh in? She had trouble getting into the community. Thanks!

    @jugar Can you put a late weigh-in on the spreadsheet for @ Cuddleme72 or should I. She weighed in today at 303.8 for what should have been a Saturday weigh-in and was marked NWI. Please let me know. Thanks, Theresa

    @jugar Could you please add a line into the step challenge for team WNM. Maybe add two or three. I don't know what's going on, but everyone wants to take part all of a sudden. I actually wanted to cancel it, but someone said how much it meant to them. Then someone else joined and immediately had 100,000+ steps in her first week. Mine are even creeping up. Now I'm having fun with the weekly announcements. Who knew?!

    Isn't it fun when that happens? I'll add you a few more!

    @jugar We have a new member Queenieamy who lives somewhere that uses stones. She had her starting weight wrong because she mistakenly calculated stones to pounds incorrectly the first week. Since then, she has said she lost 6 pounds the first week and 13.5 pounds the second week, taking her from 175 to 155.5 or a total of 19.5 lbs. Ashley asked her to weigh herself again in a day or two and get back to us as well as check the battery on her scale. I asked her to send us her weight in stones so that we could do the calculation. She hasn't gotten back to us and, other than logging her weight, doesn't participate in the group. This is a curious situation. What do you recommend?

    I always let everyone use whatever unit they like, and prefer to do the calculations myself. I agree that if she stays with you, she should use stones. BUT, her weights sound like they are all over the place and dangerous, if they are accurate. If she doesn't come back, I'd say there is no big worry. If she does, I suggest she reports in stones. If her weight loss is too fast, though, she needs some help. It is true that some people lose very fast if they are starting high and it is not a huge % loss. But 19.5 pounds at her level is WAY too much. Keep me posted!

    AmyG1982 has decided to leave the group. She belongs to a smaller group which is better suited for her. Thanks!

    @1theresamcvean and @minstrelofsarcasm

    I see the situation with Queenieamy has not resolved, or they are in a seriously unhealthy eating mode. 20 pounds in 2 weeks is not something we can support, unless they had surgery or some other thing that could cause such a drastic change. Have you heard back about the scale issues? Who is taking care of the stones to pounds calculations? Let me know what you know - thanks!

    zaraloveskatz appears to deactivated her account. She did this a few weeks ago and then started a new profile. Do you think she should be moved to the drop list?

    YIKES. So many people are having trouble getting on to MFP community - I will probably delay tallies on Sunday. Get those weigh-ins done as soon as you can and we'll go from there!

    We have not heard back from her regarding either re-weighing or giving us the weights in stones. I will PM her. Apologies for not reaching out to her directly. I was having trouble logging in today at all.

    She sent me a message yesterday saying that she was waiting on Amazon to deliver a new scale. Sorry for the delayed response!

    Draby2011 didn’t do her Saturday weigh in yet. Technically, she should be moved to the dropped list but she did check in yesterday and said she will weigh today. She has had a lot on her plate this month. Thanks!

    no problem - so many people had trouble getting on that I will hold off on any drops even if there are NWIs. I will probably do the tallies this evening or tomorrow morning just so everyone has a chance to catch up.

    Hopefully all the week 3 will be in soon! I'll be doing tallies early Monday morning.
