⚖️ Tracking weight regularly gives us insight as to where we are in our journey. It’s important to know that weight is not the only indicator of your progress, but it can help you know if you’re traveling in the right direction.

How to log your weight

1. First, look for the Track Weight or Log weight button near the bottom of the Track screen of the app:

2. When your Weight Tracker pops up, add your weight, and the date. Then, add a quick photo of yourself if you'd like to track your weight progress visually:

Your photos and the data you provide are private and will never be shared with anyone.

How often should I update my weight in the app?

If you log your weight once a week, you’ll get the most accurate indication of your progress. If you weigh in more often, you might not see any changes as fat loss doesn’t change overnight. Losses are more likely to be from fluid!

Do I have to take photos of myself every time I log my weight?

We understand that you might not want to take photos of yourself – and you certainly don’t have to. But, if you do, you will have a record of where you started. Then it’s easier and so much more rewarding for you to see the progress you’ve made.

How can I compare my photos?

1. Tap on the weight numbers in the weight tracker, then scroll to the Photo Progress tab:
