I've tried in every possible location including the app, but I can't edit/update my weight. I enter the new data, hit save and the old weight comes back. Please help.
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.
Not sure if this is connected, but in modern view the forward and back date arrows at the top of weight chart (next to the 'today' button) are no longer functioning.

I cant thank you enough for your detective work. Your suggestion fixed a problem for me, that has been ongoing for a few weeks, driving me mad. This tip ought to be made a sticky.
What is meant by "measurement record"? And how do you delete it? All I can find in garmin connect classic view is the Personal Information section where weight is listed. It won't let you leave that blank and changing it just reverts back to the original weight.
Okay, I was able to edit it, but not from 'classic' view. In 'modern' view I clicked the icon in the upper left (the three horizontal lines--the page or book icon?) then I scrolled near the bottom where the 'weight' tab is. I went in there and found two weight 'measurements': one dated today (Sept 15, 2015) and one dated a year from that as Sept 15, 2016 (I think that was mentioned in a previous reply). I deleted the future date that was showing my old weight (unfortunately, my new weight is higher). After that Measurement was deleted from Modern view, it changed it to my current weight in Classic and on the Garmin Connect app.
This brings up another question. The weight on the device is totally separate. I assume the importance of that is for calories, effort, the built in Vo2 tests and any other metrics that are effected by weight... Right?
