Hi, I added an incorrect weight entry to a wrong date and don't know how to delete it. How can I accomplish this?

I'm not sure if you can delete it, but I think you can replace it with the accurate weight. Just go back to the day you entered the wrong weight, type in the correct one and submit it.

To the Right of messages, there is the calender. You can change the date there. Then just go and change the weight entry.

Nate,

My question was related to eliminating a bad entry. If I go to the calendar and change the current date context, that still leaves me with a bad entry on the prior date.

My goal is to delete the incorrect entry so that I don't have a valid one and an invalid one.

ahh Ok, yeah I just went and did a test. I can not remove an entry once entered. I can only change it.

I posted a related question last week and haven't gotten any response from the Traineo powers that be. But as far as I can tell, you can't actually eliminate the incorrect weight. In my case, I apparently entered a "145" or something close when I wanted a "245." Now, because of that 145, which I immediately went back and "changed," I have a lovely "goal met" banner, even though I'm still quite a few pounds away from the goal.

Hi Mike - Sorry about the frustration with not being able to totally remove the weight entry...we'll fix this issue in a new release. In the meantime we recommend changing your old entry accordingly.

Thanks for your support!

Hi Mike,

The Traineo interface definitely needs a methodology for correcting and eliminating mistakes. I've accidentally clicked on the sliders in the "My Diet" and have been unable to eliminate the mistake. As a result, I just don't use that section; which is unfortunate.

Good to hear that's an issue to be looked at, Alasdair. Until then, I guess I just have to start over with a new starting weight and goal weight? Not that I've lost more than a couple of pounds, so that won't really be an issue, but I had hoped to be able to keep it set with my original "decided to at least think about losing weight" date, rather than having to reset it to get rid of the "goal met" designation.

HB-I also don't use that one, but more for the fact that it's not useful to me. I don't track calories (maybe that's a contributing factor to my not losing any weight), but would use something like a "how did you do on your diet today?" kind of meter, with a poor, fair, good, excellent kind of option. I guess I could still use it that way, but just haven't bothered.

This was three months ago and I was curious if this has been addressed yet. I, too, want to delete an entry. It's not a wrong entry: it's the right date and the right weight. It's just that I entered it before my current diet and it's throwing off my progress of the current diet.

I wouldn't expect a new release any time soon. They have been promising one for a very long time now - like a couple of years maybe.
