    Did you gain weight and enter that as your previous measurement? Maybe it's just saying one pound down from your original starting weight.... if not then i have noooo idea!

    I changed my starting weight last Monday because when I first started I just guesstimated how much I weighed. This weigh in was yesterday though. Idk, I'm just confused.

    Go in and delete the first weight that was guesstimated. see if that helps

    Well I've lost like 2kg the past couple weeks but it said that I've lost 0kgs so far but that's because my starting weight was lower than my current weight, so maybe yours is the same situation?

    You need to delete the previous weight from the first time you started. Go to edit previous weight, it will pop out which one you need to remove.

    This...I've done that. I gained a couple, changed my weight online. When I lose some, it'll show up like that. :smile:

    This happened to me once... It's probably because you had a recent weight-in that was above your starting weight on MFP...so even if your most recent loss was 3.2 pounds, it was probably just 1 pound less than that starting weight, the one you first entered on MFP, and not your last entry.

    Hope that helps! :)

    I had the same thing happen to me. I set my weight at 313 when I set it up, but my first weight input here was 316. So when I weighed in at 310, it said I was down 6 lbs and had lost 3.. Reset your starting weight to what you weighed in at officially and it should correct itself.
