    Go into Settings, then Delete Account at the bottom. Why do you need to start a new account to start fresh? Looks like you have a ton of friends and everything. Why not start logging today and go from there? Good luck to you! :)

    I understand wanting a fresh start, but you don't have to delete your account to do it. All you have to do is decide to are going to make a change. If you absolutely feel you must:

    I like to think of MFP like life. We don't get do-overs. We pick a day to start fresh with all the previous knowledge there to help us.

    You can keep your historical weight but have your ticker show your new progress by adding your new starting weight at least one day older than your current oldest date/weight. See alternate c below.
    _______________________________________________________________
    You must use the Web version, not the mobile apps, to update your starting weight.

    Navigate to APPS > Tickers > Update your weight data. Enter your desired starting weight and click Save Changes. That will update the oldest date/weight in your profile.

    Alternately, navigate to MY HOME > Check-in > Edit Previous Entries.
    a. Enter a new value in the Starting Weight text box and click Change; or
    b. Scroll down and click on the highest page number to take you to the oldest date/weight entry. Once you find your oldest date/weight entry, under Add New Entry, enter the new date/weight and click Add New Entry. That will replace the oldest date/weight with your new one.
    c. If you want to keep all of your historical data, Add New Entry at least one day older than the oldest date/weight.
