    Hmmm... It almost sounds to me like you possibly set it up to gain weight rather than lose it. I'd go check your settings.

    Ditto. Make sure you said that you want to LOSE weight, not gain it.

    You're right, that doesn't make sense! If I were you, I'd check my numbers and make sure I have the correct calculating system (pounds vs kg!). Hope you figure it out!
