Ok so maybe i can not subtract but i think i am right. my calculations say i lost 7.4 but when on here is only says 5 but shouldn't it say 7.
beg weight 210.2
new weight 202.8
not sure if this makes a difference but i just got back on the wagon. Yeah i quit a few months ago and started back up last sunday. since my last loss a few months back i gained 17 lbsback:sad: . but thats ok i will get it back off. but can anyone explain to me why it only says 5?
Thanks and i am soooo happy to be back with everyone on MFP .

Really can't help because we can't see what weight you're putting in when you check-in but---
--check to make sure you entered the weights correctly
--also, MFP doesn't recognize decimals--it only goes by full pounds and will round up to the closet weight.
Double check what weights you've entered and see.0 -
when you do your check in weights did you put your original weight in? i forgot to do that when i started and then it didn't have the right weight loss.0
