From the beginning of using this site - I have wanted to put my initial starting weight in so that I could see my true weight loss (not just since I found MFP). I tried to do it before and really hosed my settings... Here is how if you wanted to know:

CLICK MY HOME from primary navigation
Then CLICK CHECK IN from the sub navigation

At the bottom, select EDIT PREVIOUS ENTRIES.

VIOLA!!!! I logged all of my weight check-ins pre-MFP and my Total lost block shows MY TRUE WEIGHT LOSS!!! YAY!!

Hope this helps u too!

    YOU'RE MY HERO! :happy:

    Before joining MFP I hit the original goal I set for myself, but recently I decided I want to get down to the "healthy" range. It's been so discouraging every week logging on and seeing "0 lbs lost" when I know I've lost 50+. That might sound silly to some but the "54 lbs lost" in my ticker feels really good to see!

    You made my day :smile:
