Tracker & Calorie help

sissie2955

I have just joined and have 2 issues. I made my tracker but it shows zero punds lost. I have lost 160lbs and would love for it to show. I first set it up with my original weight then I went to the tab for weigh in and put my current weight but the tracker says zero when I post.... Any ideas?

Secondly This site automatically gives me a 1250 Calorie goal yet my doctor has me on 1200... How do I change it to what I want it to be ?

First of all.. WOW.. congrats on taking off the 160 pounds! Amazing! I had the same issue when I joined, I had already lost 20 pounds but put my current weight into the tracker. What you need to do is go to the check in button and at the bottom of the list of measurements, there is an edit previous entries button. You can go back and change your starting weight. You can also customize your calorie goal. Go to the goals page and scroll down and select edit goals, then select custom goals and you can enter whatever you want. Welcome to MFP and keep up the great work!
