    Thank you for all you do with the spreadsheets! Would you mind expanding columns A and B so we can see our completes teammates name and day of Weigh-in?

    Appreciate you!

    Thanks! I don't see any problem, though. Both columns look fine - the names are complete, the weigh-in days are there... Not sure what is happening - are you using the mobile version or the web? The mobile version can be weird sometimes.

    @Fitness327wk Oh - Sally I also have a question. Patti705 reported her weight on Monday, even though her weigh-in day is Wednesday. It is recorded in the spreadsheet as her weigh-in for this week, but it wasn't due until yesterday. Can you verify that it is indeed her week 1, since she missed her last weigh-in for November? Thanks!

    I usually use the mobile version. :) I wasn’t referring to the names or weigh-ins being incomplete, sorry. I was just asking since on the mobile version on columns A and B if you would expand a little.

    Greg and I have discussed in the past and she pops in and out. As leaders we follow protocol and put her on the no weigh in list.

    We support all as I know that you do! I will send her an email to see if it’s a better weigh in day for her.

    Have a great day!

    Here is an example. It would be super helpful to expand the columns A and B and align to the left.
    Making it easier for our awesome team and Co-Captains!

    Thank you for all you do @jugar! Appreciate you!💜💜👏💜💜

    @FITNESS327WK AND @JUGAR....
    PATTI 705 REPORTED HER WEIGHT ON MONDAY AND IT'S MARKED AS A LATE WEIGH FROM THE END OF NOV. I MADE THE MISTAKE OF MOVING IT INTO THE WRONG COLUMN AND JUST HADN'T GOT BACK THERE TO CORRECT IT. WHICH AS OF RIGHT NOW I HAVE CORRECTED IT. SHE IS INTERMITTENT AT BEST WITH REPORTING HER WEIGHT AND HAS BEEN AS LONG AS SHE HAS BEEN ON THE TEAM. IT IS MY HOPE THIS CLEARS UP ANY MORE QUESTIONING OF THIS SITUATION.
    THANKS TO YOU BOTH FOR THE HEADS UP, AND I WILL NOW LEAVE THE SS STUFF IN SALLY'S AND SUE'S HAND. THEY BOTH HAVE A GREAT HANDLE ON HOW GOGGLE SHEETS AND EXCEL WORKS WHICH I DON'T.
    AS OF TODAY PATTI705 IS LATE WITH POSTING HERE WEIGH IN WEEK 1
    TODAY I AM SENDING HER A MFP MESSAGE WITH RULE 5 AND 6 ATTACH TO IT UNDER RULES AND GUIDELINES FOR THE GROUP.
    5) We will have WEEKLY weigh ins! It's for ACCOUNTABILITY!!! We all go on vacation, or travel from time to time. IF YOU CAN'T WEIGH ON TIME PLEASE LET YOUR CAPTAIN OR A MODERATOR KNOW A challenger missing 2 NON WEIGH IN'S OR NWI'S for the month will be placed in the teams CHEER SQUAD for the month. 2 LATE WEIGH- INS OR LWI'S will count as 1 NON WEIGH- IN OR NWI
    THIS RULE EXPLAINS THE NWI AND LWI RULES TO A T AND I WOULD LIKE ALL CAPTAINS TO START ENFORCING IT . THIS HAS GOTTEN WAY TO RELAXED....

    6) Weekly Weigh-Ins are entered in your team thread!! YOUR TEAM CAPTAIN or a (GROUP MODERATOR ONLY IF CAPTAINS ARE UNAVAILABLE) will be entering them onto the spreadsheet as they come in. Please check the spreadsheet to ensure your weights have been entered in case one was missed. On your weigh in day please go into your team thread and enter your weights as it is demonstrated below so your captains can easily find your weigh-in.

    Wow. This looks really weird. I don't usually use the mobile version for the spreadsheets, and I'll have to work on this when I get back home tomorrow (Friday). Then I'll have all my tools lined up right -- sorry you'll have to put up with this weirdness until then :grimace:

    @jessicakrall8 and @mulecanter -

    keepmelean has asked for permission to edit the spreadsheet. Could you let me know what she would be editing and if it is something you know about? I prefer to keep the list of people editing as small as we can, but if she has a particular role recording steps or something, that's fine. thanks!

    Hey there...I have no idea what she's wanting to edit. This was not discussed or approved by me or mulecanter...at least he and I haven't discussed it at all. We usually make decisions together, so this is news to me. I would say no to that request.

    @Fitness327wk - I have tried re-sizing the first 2 columns in every way possible, and on the mobile version, it is always the same. If the first 2 columns are frozen, to make scrolling into the later weeks easier, unfortunately, you can't see the whole column A and B. In landscape mode, you can see the full name and the number of the day of the week, if that helps. But otherwise, that is a limitation of the mobile version. Sorry!

    @jugar Sorry I tagged you wrong above. My mouse must have slipped... I haven't heard back from @Julie8468 so I guess she is not interested.
    Also could you please excuse @phoebe112476 from team Weight No More from the weigh in this week, her daughter is in the hospital. Thanks :)

    No problem - I wonder who the other person tagged is? Hopefully they are not too confused!

    I'll put julie on the drop list, but if she comes back, just let me know. And Phoebe is excused! I hope her daughter is all right. My daughter is named Phoebe, so I feel like this is family even more than usual. I'll drop by your thread to check up :frowning:

    GOOD MORNING MODERATORS AND CAPTAINS OF THE FAT2FIT WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE AND SUPPORT GROUP.
    IT SADDENS ME TO TELL YOU ALL THAT AS OF DECEMBER 31ST I WILL BE RESIGNING AS ONE OF THE FITNESS WARRIORS CAPTAIN, AS A MODERATOR AND AS THE GROUP OWNER. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH THE GROUP FOUNDER AND SHE UNDERSTAND AND RESPECTS MY DECISION COMPLETELY.
    I MADE THIS DECISION BASED ON WHAT IS GOOD FOR ME. IN DISCUSSING MY DECISION WITH THE CURRENT C0-CAPTAINS AND MOTIVATOR OF THE FITNESS WARRIORS WE FOUND OUT THAT WE ALL SHARE THE SAME NEW VISION WITH OUR WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY
    WE DECIDED TO DO A START UP GROUP OF OUR OWN. THE 4 OF US WILL START A NEW GROUP IN 2020. WE HAVE DECIDED TO HONOR AND RESPECT THE MEMBERS OF THE TEAMS IN THIS GROUP AND WE WILL NOT ACTIVELY RECRUIT FROM THE GROUP.
    HOWEVER WE ARE TELLING THE FITNESS WARRIORS TEAM WHAT WE ARE DOING AND WHAT OUR PLANS ARE. THIS WILL ALLOW THEM THE CHOICE OF JOINING US OR STAYING WITH THE TEAM. I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU WILL HONOR THEIR CHOICE.
    THE FOUR OF US WILL REMAIN AT OUR POST UNTIL DECEMBER 31ST AND WILL CONTINUE OUR DUTIES AND WHAT IS EXPECTED OF US AS CAPTAINS AND MOTIVATORS AND THE OWNER. . IT IS OUR HOPE FOR A SMOOTH TRANSITION.
    AS FOR THE OWNER SHIP I WILL DISCUSS THAT WITH THE MODERATOR PRIVATELY AND I AM SURE THAT THEY WILL INFORM YOU OF THEIR DECISION. AS THE TEAM CAPTAINS YOU CAN CHOOSE WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOUR TEAM.
    GREG AKA NAVYDADDJTC

    Greetings from Liselyn @jugar and Becky @Beka3695 --

    Well, Greg's announcement came as a complete surprise to us this morning. Becky and I are going to talk this evening and see what kind of ideas we can come up with, but we need you to let us know what you think!

    Let's use this space to throw ideas around. I think this challenge has helped a lot of people, and it would be unfortunate for it to disappear. We are at a point where things can change, stay more or less the same, end, or whatever we like - so please throw in your thoughts, feel free to discuss this within your teams, and come back here to post your thoughts.

    Thanks!

    I agree, Greg has briefly mentioned this to me and I will be in touch with you both as well as Greg again. @jugar , I have been away more than here so I am not about to do anything without speaking with you both first. I do know that until all this sorts itself out, you have the skills and dedication to hold things together. I will reach out soon...

    Discussions have been flying all day! Steve, Becky, and I are going to get things sorted, don't worry. We might be a bit smaller if some people want to follow Greg into his new venture, but there are a lot of strong connections and a good network here that will be able to continue and grow.

    It is going to be quite the start to a new year!

    Hi All:

    I will be speaking with Becky (& perhaps Liselyn) tonight after my piano lessons...I am willing to step up and carry a heavier responsibility, but I do NOT want to lose this HUGE system of support for any of us...too many people depend on it, participate in it and appreciate it!

    @steplaj @Beka3695 @jugar, PLEASE keep me in the loop and tell me what I can do and what you need from me.

    New Year/New Us!!

    Absolutely, and with this being said, we are going to look for a fresh start - SO, if anyone has any thoughts they would like us to consider while we sort things out, by all means, be sure to forward them to Becky, Liselyn and myself.
