Weight update/sync? What am I missing?

Former Member over 9 years ago

I have a Withings scale that is linked to MyFitnessPal. MyFitnessPal is linked to Garmin Connect. Everything syncs just fine. My weight dropped 3lbs since the last weigh in... Withings, MFP, and GC all show the new, correct weight as of this mornings weigh-in.

My 610 still shows the old weight.

I rode 11 miles today and synced the ride perfectly. GC shows the ride. My 610 still shows my old weight.

Garmin Express won't let us manually sync anymore and the new version seems to be ignoring the new weight data on GC.

Am I missing a step, or is it broke (again?) Anyone with a similar setup having the same issues??

Thanks!!

I can't update my weight either.

Found this and it worked. Had to switch to the classic view of connect:

I noticed in the Garmin Connect site that when I looked at the measurements in the Garmin Connect site that there was a measurement record that was dated more than a year from now.

When I deleted this record, the problem went away, so I can only assume that the system was simply looking at the most recent weight measurement and it wasn't able to identify it as being incorrect because it was in the future.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked Classic View and there was no weird date or anything that I could see. I guess (like a lot of Garmin users) I'll just continue to be annoyed at how Garmin attempts to do SO much without tying up the loose ends and fixing the bugs along the way....."Garmin: Jack of all trades, master of none!!!"

So how Do you change it back top classic view so I can update my weight?

If you go to Account in modern view, (person icon on left of screen) there should be a link to 'temporarily switch to classic view' or similar wording....

Changing to classic view worked for me. I found a weight recorded in the year 2029. Once I deleted it all is well.

Delete Future Weight Recording Fixes It

This is great. Been trying to figure out why my weight was stuck for months.

From the Profile icon (the little head on the left menu - head icon), selected 'Switch to Classic View Temporarily'

From the Menu, select Analyze, then Health

If you see a weight recorded in the future, click the weight bullet on the weight chart. Below it should change to that date.

Next, click the red 'x' to the left of the date listed next to measurement and confirm the detention.

That did it for me. Thanks to all who posted the above help.
