Tracker still says 0?

Options
Just was wondering why my ticker doesn't say I've lost any weight... I enter in my weight loss and I think it's around 6.5 lbs or something like that so far which I know isn't that much but it would still be encouraging to see it on my ticker and to have myfitnesspal tell me how much it was so far.... what's wrong with it? HELPPPP :) Thank you!

    Try checking your other entries, like starting weight. Perhaps your starting weight is not correct, so when you enter your weight updates, those are greater than your starting weight and the math says you have not gone below your entered starting weight yet.

    BV1980 has probably nailed it. The ticker is based on the starting and goal weights that you set when configuring your goal. If you have gone over your starting weight (or the number you entered as your starting weight), then gone back down, it won't show loss until you're below the starting weight. That's why you'll sometimes see people with "0 lb. to go" and a ticker whose indicator is off the scale on the right.

    So check your goals (My Home > Goals > Change Goals).

    I think that's because she took the first poster's advice and fixed it. :happy:
