Hi guys, I was just wondering if anyone has any idea as to why my ticker hasnt updated my weight loss. Its my first 1.5 lb, not a lot but it hasnt moved or says 1.5 lost. I do have it to record my weight loss. Anything I need to do? its not a huge deal just wondering if anyone knows what I need to do. Thanks

The only thing I can think of is to check and make sure your starting weight is correct. If you enter a weight that was higher than your starting weight it won't register the loss.

Tools > Tickers > Weight Data, double check your starting weight is accurate, if you (for instance) gained some, then lost the 1.5, it might have gotten messed up... that's the only thing I could think of?

Sometimes it takes a little while for my ticker to update, but if it isn't right by the end of the day, I would notify the mods or Mike or someone.

Is there any chance you've recorded it wrong? Or perhaps your first weight or starting weight recorded might have been from a while back, and you've returned to MFP - if, for example, ages ago you started at 150, then you stopped using MFP, came back, and put your new weight as, say, 152, then lost 1.5 taking you to 150.5 your ticker would not recognise that as a loss because it thinks you started at 150?

If not, maybe it just needs to catch up

I've only just added my ticker and even though i've lost a little bit it doesn't show so maybe its the same for you x

Thanks, based on what I read, I started at 156, and went up so I guess its not registering my weight as a loss. Thanks for clearing up the confusion for me, I appreciate it.
