Hey there! My starting weight a week ago was 191lbs, and I've gone down to 187lbs, but it still says 0lbs lost on my ticker. I've made sure to check-in properly and everything, but the starting weight on it has gone down to 187lbs instead. Even on the reports bit it says I've gone down.

Probably a silly problem, but help a sister out? o:)

    If you want your ticker to update you basically have to make it again, it's not dynamic. Click 'Personalize your ticker' at http://www.myfitnesspal.com/Roeygal and go through the steps again.

    I remade it just now, but it's still saying the same thing? :weary:

    Just dropping this here again for those MFP users lurking...

    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.

    Mine updates every time I update under "progress" on the mobile app or "check-in" on the website. Make sure if you want to show progress, you don't update your starting weight to your new weight.
