I'm trying to add my info but am unable to add/type anything. Anyone else having issues, or have a tip for me with this? Haha

    Please note that, members can only update or add their info in the Weigh In tab of spreadsheet. All other tabs/sheets are read-only. Also, you can update the Weigh In part of spreadsheet on your laptop/desktop. For any mobile/cellular device you will need Google Drive and Google Sheets Apps installed on your device to update or add details to the Weigh In tab/sheet.

    Thank you for responding. I thought no one did since I didn't get an alert of any sort. I guess I have a lot to learn on this app. Off to explore I'll go. :-)

    I have both of those apps but it still won't let me edit that spreadsheet. Do you mind adding my info for me this time until I can figure it out? LOL sorry!

    I thought this may help people who don't already know.

    We have a lot of members for this group and finding your name in the spreadsheet may be difficult
    Press CTRL+F together and it brings up a search bar, type your username and you found yourself! Easy as delicious pie.

    The spreadsheet will be sorted alphabetically on January 10. Any members who add their details after the sort or have incomplete entries (weight and/or goal) will have their names at the bottom of the list. To maintain the name/entry in the spreadsheet members need to add at least once their weight and goal by January 18. If any one is not able to add their details then they can message that to me by January 10. I will update the info for them only once. For future they have to figure it out themselves.

    I've tried everything. I guess this just isn't going to work on my phone. Plus I'm not getting any notifications even though I have it checked marked to receive them. I'm thinking this group and challenge aren't going to work for me at this point. I'll just keep trying my hardest on my own. Thanks and good luck!

    Hi lpostma77,

    I have been able to update my info on the spreadsheet with my IPad. However, I can only do it if I start fresh each time by logging into the Internet to get into www.myfitnesspal.com, as opposed to getting in by using the icon/app that I downloaded. When I use the Icon/app I do not even see the "Community" tab. Maybe you will have luck if you have a tablet. On my phone (Galaxy S4) I can see the spreadsheet, (if I log in through the internet) but I cannot make changes/updates to my weight. However, I am definitely not a computer genius! Good luck!

    Thanks for the feedback. I'll try on my laptop and see if it's any different. :-)

    Group notifications aren't working yet-they are supposed to fix that with the next update.

    Android app users are slowly getting the community button in the app but it's not fully rolled out yet and iOS won't be for a bit yet.

    Definitely use your laptop to access the full website. I use my iPad to access the forums and look at members profiles but have to use my computer to update the spreadsheet.

    Don't quit! Challenges and friends on MFP are the real key to success!!

    To update spreadsheet using any cellular device you will need Google Drive, Sheets and Docs (all three Apps installed). That also means that you will need to have Google account. The simplest way to update spreadsheet is to use laptop/desktop. Don't give up.

    I'm on my home computer and can't input my current weight, any suggestions. I didn't have any problems with the last spreadsheet

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I do have Google drive, sheets, and docs apps but I still can't update on my phone. It's ok, I'll try my laptop when I can. Using my phone would have been SO much more convenient and practical! I'm definitely not giving up on the goal, just can't log my info often. That's ok.

    You need to have Google account and being logged in your Google Drive. Then access the spreadsheet for updates.

    I was able to put my weight in the spreadsheet with no problem, and I updated it on January 11th without a problem as well. But now I can no longer make any changes to my weight on the weigh in tab. Should I be able to update now, or are we supposed to wait until January 20th to update the spreadsheet? Thank you for any assistance that you can provide. I am logged into google.

    All members can update their current weight in Weigh In sheet any time. All other sheets are locked and will remain locked. Start weight in progress sheet will not change in the by updating current weight. It will update the weight under Milestone 1 till January 20, 6 pm. After that the Current Weight will point to Milestone 2 and so on.

    Dear balancedwalker I joined this Sequel sometime in Dec. I have found my name on the spreadsheet for Weigh in and Progress. But I seem to be missing on the
    ranking goal % age and ranking lbs lost.

    Ranking sheets are underconstruction and will be ready by January 20 for all members.
