Why won't it show my lost weight?

Hi all!

Joined a couple of years ago but never really took to it until a week or so ago. Trying to figure this thing out. I got some scales the other day and realised that I am 5kgs lighter than I was when I last weighed myself. I tried to put this in but something went screwy. Anyway, I finally found the weigh in section where I post my current weight, so I changed it in this but for some reason it still says my weight loss is 0kgs... What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the help :)

    You have to reset your original starting weight.
    It's not easy to find, lol

    You have to go to Check-In (My Home - then under that you see Home, Goals, Check-In, Mail, Profile, etc.)

    Then down a bit you see "Edit previous entries." This may not work on the mobile app and my only be available on the PC website.

    Just to be clear - did you go to 'My Home', then 'Check-In', entered today's weight then hit the Save Changes button?

    Yeah I had, it just turned out that I still had my original weight as my starting weight so it wasn't picking up any actual loss.
