    Did you gain weight before you lost? This happened to me because I joined MFP and couple years ago, lost about 30lbs and then got off track. When I came back and input my new weight, it didn't start saying I had lost until I got back down to my lowest weight I had logged previously. For example: If you started at 200 lbs then lost 30 lbs and are 170 but then gain 20lbs and and weigh 190, it won't say you lost xx amount until you get below 170. You can go into your settings and adjust it if that is your case.

    Uhh I have to input mine. But if you put it in the wrong place like I did it won't show squat.

    Go to "My Home"
    Click on "goals"
    Click "view guided setup" (first line on the page just after (Would you like help setting up your goals?)

    You will see "starting weight" first and the date you began. Then "current weight".. those I got switched around. Once I fixed it it showed the weight lost.

    Thank you. It was driving me mad.
    I went and looked at my start date and weight but it was my start weight in 2014. Not what my start weigh is now. Which is more than 2014 (opps) but all sorted now
