How can I change my weight

I started my weight loss in June......but I didn't start using this app till August. Is there any way I can show how much weight I have lost since June?

    Go to your home and click check-in. There is an option to modify pervious entries. Modify your first entry to reflect your beginning weight, then it will show in your ticker.

    I have a similar problem. I lost 3lbs in the last two weeks but for the record I only lost 0.5lbs, because I gained weight since I first made my goal and then lost it back. So today for example, today: I lost 1.5lbs from last week and it said that I lost 1.5lbs from my last weigh in for a total of 0.5lbs. I wish I could just reset it to when I started loosing so I can see how much I've lost total.

    Found it. Changed my starting weight. I went to help and found this.


    How do I change my starting weight or edit incorrect weight entries?
    If you'd like to change your starting weight and date, remove erroneous entries, or add weight entries prior to your start date with MyFitnessPal, you can do so by logging into our website at http://www.myfitnesspal.com. Mobile app users should log in using the same username and password they use in the app.

    Once you've logged in, click "My Home", then "Check-in", then "Edit Previous Entries". On that page, you can delete weight entries, or add new entries for any date. Any changes you make will be synced to the app automatically once the app is connected to the internet.

    Users of our iOS app can also remove erroneous weight or measurement entries by swiping the entry from right to left in the list, then tapping the revealed "Delete" button.

    If you would like to preserve all of your historical weight data and simply update your weight loss ticker to reflect a new goal, please see this article
