    You may need to double check your start weight.
    Go to Apps
    Then click Tickers
    Then their is an update weight data link

    and try:

    MY Home
    Check IN
    Edit Previous Entries

    What she said. I had the same issue a couple weeks ago. Congrats on the weight loss.

    WTG on your weight loss! On my phone, it hardly ever updates, but on my computer it's correct.

    What is Tickers? Sorry I'm new to all this and haven't a clue what I'm doing with this app

    You need to change your starting weight or delete old entries, so once you go to your profile, go to "check-in" and click on "edit previous entries".

    You must use the Web version, not the mobile apps, to update your starting weight.

    Navigate to APPS > Tickers > Update your weight data. Enter your desired starting weight and click Save Changes. That will update the oldest date/weight in your profile.

    Alternately, navigate to MY HOME > Check-in > Edit Previous Entries.
    a. Enter a new value in the Starting Weight text box and click Change; or
    b. Scroll down and click on the highest page number to take you to the oldest date/weight entry. Once you find your oldest date/weight entry, under Add New Entry, enter the new date/weight and click Add New Entry. That will replace the oldest date/weight with your new one.
    c. If you want to keep all of your historical data, Add New Entry at least one day older than the oldest date/weight.
