    Ann: it seems before the chart shows up that I needed to send a request to have it show up. It’s on the website now. How interesting.

      Hi Ruthielil, Coincidently, I noticed the same thing earlier today when trying to access it from my phone. The weight chart does appear normally from my desktop. I am checking into this and hope to have the glitch fixed soon. Thank you for making sure I was aware!
