lost 2.2 pounds since her last weigh-in! She's lost 0.2 pounds so far.

Why 0.2 pounds only? I don't understand? Does MFP calculate some fluctuation?

Thoughts?

    Say your first weigh-in was 150 and your most recent weigh-in was 152, if you then weighed in at 148.8 that would be a loss of 2.2 since your last weigh-in and a loss of 0.2 overall.

    But that wans't the case.

    For example: my first weigh in was 132 and then it went down to 129.8. (that's my goal lol)

    So...I don't get it.

    Odd... are you sure there isn't an old weigh-in that you forgot about? If you go to your Check In page and click 'edit previous entries' it will show you all your past logs. I don't know, maybe it was just a glitch.

    Yeah...All my weigh in's were exactly the same...so I don't get it. I deleted all the entry's except for the 1st weigh in and then re-entered today's and it worked.

    Thanks! Have a great day!
