Can I reset my starting weight?

I bought a new scale and it says I weigh 10 pounds more then my old scale. I didn't gain 10 pounds so I don't want to change my weight to the new number. Is there a way to change the starting weight so my loses and gains will still be accurate? I hope that makes sense. Thanks

    Under Check-In - click edit previous entries - where it asks starting weight put in the new weight.

    I tried that and then it told me I've lost more then I actually have. Do I have to go change every weigh in I've logged to make it correct?

    Or start over I guess. But I was hoping to keep my same account. Then I know my ups and downs., :sad:

    I just did this too! I reset the starting weight and current weight. The in-between looks crazy, but it makes sense to me!
