    Hi @minstrelofsarcasm and @melaniedscott !

    For April, flutterlosses has 2 consecutive NWI but is also noted to be excused from the 1st May weigh-in. I'm leaving them in the team for now, but please get in touch to be sure they are still with you. Thanks!

    We had someone post in the Shape Shifters chat asking to join. Should we tell them it is too late or can they squeeze in? Quoting their post.

    No problem! if you'd like to let them in, go for it. Once you have their weigh-in day, starting weight (from that day last week, if possible) and highest weight ever (if they want to use that), let me know and I'll get them into the spreadsheet. Thanks!

    Sorry it has taken a bit to respond. I've messaged them but received no response. If I remember right, their dad is having some sort of health issue? Cancer, maybe? Has not logged in for 10 days or so.

    @jugar FYI you'll notice one SS member lost 10 lbs this week. She's struggled for several weeks with severe swelling and she's finally lost that swelling. We double checked with her to verify it was true but I know she's been suffering for over a month with that horrible swelling.

    I'm so glad you checked with her and that the horrible swelling is leaving. That's the good kind of single week big loss!

    Mswarrior7088 would like to go on maintenance but weigh once a month. Is this ok? She wants to take a break from weekly weigh ins and daily logging.

    Let's give it a try! Just go ahead and mark all the weeks but the one chosen as EXC so that it is clear they are not going to happen. I'll leave it up to you to work out when they should migrate back to regular team if there is a gain, and then, of course, once they are back in their maintenance zone, they go back there. I find people go back and forth from time to time - it is good to have to come back to the discipline of weekly weigh-ins when there has been a slip. And slips happen!

    @jugar Kodakslim would like to restart with the Shape Shifters after being out for a while due to a death in her family. I've asked for a current weight and the day she wants to weigh in starting Jun 4th so will send you that info as soon as April answers me back. Thanks!
