    Hope your Sunday is rolling along nicely -

    I have closed all the November chats, and I think all the new people are in the spreadsheets and hopefully joining in the discussion. They may be a bit lost due to the weird thing about joining the group, but I'm sure you'll give them the helping hand they need.

    Important note:
    New people who have Sunday or Monday as their weigh-in day never get to do a "real" week 1 weigh-in unless they provide LAST week's weight as their starting weight. Please ask them if they have that, and then feel free to change their starting weight if they provide you with it. Thanks!

    Can you please move dabbers18 to a Monday weigh in? Also, 28haveitall2020 would like to be moved back to the team from support. I don’t have a start weight but I will enter it as soon as she lets me know. Thanks!

    If I remember correctly, 4newrunner22 requested to be moved from WNM to DS, but he still appears on the WNM sheet for December. Can you fix this?

    That’s too bad. Her Mom is sick again and she is an emergency room nurse so things have been crazy for her.

    Hey @jugar -

    Please move Linda, tryingagain5, back to the weight loss team from the cheer squad. I completely forgot to check back in with her at the end of November to see if she was rejoining us for December, but it looks like she is!

    Her last recorded weight before going on the cheer squad was 210.2 lbs, but she also said that her weight was 205.4 last week, so maybe that's her starting weight for December?

    Her weigh days are Wednesdays! :smiley:

    Can you excuse eaturpasta from weigh in this week? She has COVID-19 and is going to catch up with the group when she is feeling better.

    tryingagain5 is on the Downsizers spreadsheet. I thought I was losing my mind as I couldn’t figure out where she came from.

    I was the one losing my mind! I even went back and checked and thought I had put it in the right place - I think I was tired, and the name Linda put only one team in my mind :grimace: So sorry! All fixed now...

    Poor thing! Please let me know if she needs more time and we can put her on support team if necessary.

    Is it too late for KristieJC to come back to TWNM for December? Her mother-in-law was quite sick and things have settled down some. Please let us know.

    p.s. Her weigh-in day will be Saturday (tomorrow) which will end up being her starting weight too as she didn't weigh in last week. She could really use the group support right now so I hope this is possible. Fingers crossed.

    No problem!!! Of course she is welcome. I'll put her on the sheet right now. :heart:

    @jugar kandi3570 is going to weigh in late. Her usual weigh-in day is Saturday but won't be able to send her weight until late on Sunday due to technical issues. She's probably going to have a loss to and I don't want to discourage her. I know that she'll actually miss the tally for the week. Will this prevent her from the weekly rankings, etc? UPDATE: Nevermind, I was looking at last night's posts from after I went to bed. I think she'll make it in time.

    @jugar @KUMEcyclingteam is also going to miss weigh-in today. And won't weigh-in until Sunday at some point. Same thing, technical issues. His scale, he says, says, "ERR LOWBATT." He's always making us laugh. UPDATE: Ditto. Last night's post, so he'll make it in time.

    Hi again, Liselyn. I've entered Kristie's starting weight in and she has decided on Mondays to weigh in. Sorry about the change. I'm so glad she's back.

    @Beka3695 KUMEcyclingteam has lost 40 lbs and is steady and likely to keep it off (knowing that I'm telling you this early in the month).

    @jugar Please remove the NWI for relax8/Trimstones. She just reported in and I've updated her weight from the weekend. She was switched to working night shifts in the ICU at the hospital.

    @jugar @Beka3695 Something is freaky with the Week 2 columns for Trimstones. Columns K and L, lines 6-24 show that they have formulas in them, but when I type a weight into column j, nothing shows in K-L. I tried dragging the formulas down from line 6 and everything disappeared 6-24 in those two columns. Please help repair the formulas.

    My step team person had the same kind of problem for days this past week - the formulas seemed to be all messed up. When I checked them, everything was fine, but when she put in numbers, nothing was calculating right. Weird. MFP? Or Google? Let's blame them all...

    Greetings all Captains!

    Last week we had a large number of NWIs - not on all teams, but quite a few overall.

    If you had NWIs in your team, or have any new ones this week, please take the few minutes to contact them by message (on MFP) to remind them to come back, post their weigh-ins, and generally encourage them to participate more. I know that some people are having difficulties getting into the community threads sometimes, or they just get tangled in the navigation, and a message from a team captain makes a huge difference. You need to do a friend request first in order for your message to go through - but the reminder can be included in the friend request (optional message) to avoid having to do 2 different ones.

    Thanks!

    @jugar I have a couple of things.

    lcfa5317 weighed in late again this week. Her mom has covid and she’s pretty stressed. This is the third time in 5 weeks she has had a NWI or LWI. I think the other times she posted her weight on Sunday and I caught it before you do the tallying for the week. Should I suggest a different day to weigh in?

    lelbarou would like to change her weigh day to Monday.

    Thanks for all you do!

    SammyDee2015 on Slims was having some connectivity issues that have since been resolved. Can they be moved back to active?
