Using charge HR, the app gives total weight lost since 26 Nov 2015 though there are entries from when I started 10 Oct 2015 so doesn't show how much I've really lost since I started, not sure why this is, and in the big picture it doesn't really matter, but just for me I would like it to show the correct amount I've lost, I've checked the Web site dashboard out and it's the same there, any advice welcome

    I don't really care for the way either Fitbit or MFP display weight lost. I use Trendweight when I want to review how I'm doing in that area, generally using my computer, rather than my phone, because Trendweight displays a fairly short time period on my phone.

    I'm using the iOS Fitbit app, though not the latest update, and here is how to change your start date.

    Click on... Account > Nutrition & Body > Start Date > Select correct start date to reflect your true total loss

    There is also a Starting Weight option below the Start Date menu, so you can correct your starting weight there as well.

    You can also change your start date from the Fitbit webpage dashboard.

    Any time you go to adjust your calorie goal or weight goal, it seems to mess with the start date, which is why your true start date may have been reset at some point.
