Weight tracking logs your weigh-ins and turns them into a clear trend, so one heavy-scale morning never becomes the headline. Turn it on in Settings, then log from the Weight page.
Weight is the anchor for the rest of Loopa: your Weight forecast, your Goals, and your BMI and body composition chip all read from it.
Log a weigh-in
On the Weight page:
- Pick the date. It defaults to today and cannot be in the future.
- Enter your weight in your unit (lb or kg, set in Settings).
- Tap Log weight.
The page updates in place, no reload. Log once a day, ideally first thing in the morning after using the bathroom and before eating or drinking. Same scale, same conditions, every time.
Read your trend
Once you have two or more weigh-ins, the Trend card charts them:
- The bold gradient line is your 7-day rolling average. This is the number that matters. It smooths out water, food, and salt swings.
- The faint dots are your raw weigh-ins, so a single odd reading stays visible but never drives the trend.
- The amber dashed line is your goal weight, when one is set.
- The footer shows your high and low for the range.
The header at a glance
The gradient header sums up where you stand:
- Latest weigh-in and total change across your logged entries.
- Your goal weight and a BMI chip with its band.
- A goal ETA: "On pace to reach [goal] around [date]." If the average is not moving toward your goal, it reads "not progressing" instead.
Milestones
Loopa marks the moment a weigh-in crosses something: a round number of pounds or kilograms lost, a share of the weight you started at, or your goal. It scales with the size of it, so a new low is a line and fifty pounds is the whole screen.
Each milestone is marked once. Re-saving the same weight does not show it again, and neither does losing a pound, putting it back and losing it again. You already passed that one.
If you would rather not have the movement, turn animations down in your phone's accessibility settings. Loopa keeps the message and drops the particles.
Edit or delete an entry
In the History table, each row shows the date, the weight, and the change from the previous weigh-in (green for down, red for up). Use edit to correct a value or delete to remove it. The trend, header, and BMI chip all refresh together.
Tips for clean numbers
- Weigh at the same time of day, on the same scale.
- Do not chase the daily number. Watch the 7-day average line.
- Expect the scale to bounce 1 to 3 lb day to day. That is water, not fat.
