Is there any way to reset or set the weight used in the "weight lost" statistic?

Merkavar

In the app on the profile page it has a box for weight lost but it looks to be based on your start weight minus you current weight.

I have been using the app on and off for like 8 years according to the badge i just earned.

So my start weight is irrelevant to me now so is there a way to reset it? With out resetting the entire account.

I have gained weight since my start weight 8 years ago, so as I lose weight over the last few days, weeks, it still just says lost zero even though I am losing.

Does this make sense?

In the Goals set-up, you can edit your starting weight (and date) if you want

In the app, it's behind the hamburger icon and then Goals.

does changing the start date and weight do anything else? like erase history if i put my start date to today?
