    maybe your calculations are wrong? for instance if your starting weight was 200.7 and now you're 195.1 that "point-whatever" will make a difference

    Well I guess all that is important is the scale and DR said 7 ...Do you think It could be because I changed my starting weight to higher number when I first started it was actually 2 pound higher so do you think it thought I gained???

    You said you changed your starting weight... Did you change it by just putting the actual weight in via the weight tracker?

    If you did than the system thinks the first weight is the starting weight and when you changed it the system thinks you've gained weight. So even though you lost 7 lbs this week because you added two pounds it thinks you only lost 5. Confusing I know!
