It posts how many pounds I've lost a day on my timeline but my profile says I've lost zero pounds total. How can I get my profile to say the total amount of pounds I've Lost?

If you're talking about this:
You should be able to get it to display by going to Edit Profile > Settings > Privacy Settings, and then changing the ticker view settings to "everyone".1 -

Mine only says how much I've lost in green. I don't get a ticker box as in your example which would include how many more to go. I've looked in every possible spot in MFP, my profile, etc. I cannot find any area or page where "Edit Profile" leads to "Settings" and where that leads to "Privacy Settings". Am I missing something? Do I have to share my Diary?

I went to edit profile but there was no option called privacy settings. Do you have a premium account? I don't. Thanks for your help ☺1 -

You don't have to change privacy settings to get a ticker.
Mine is visible on my (private) profile page.
