So my starting weight is wrong.. Does anyone know how I can change it to reflect the correct weight I was at when I started losing weight?

    There is a check-in section under My Home, in the menu at the top (assuming you're using a computer and not the app). You can retroactively change your weight there, where it says "Edit previous entries"

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

    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.
