Body Weight

Track your body weight and view trends over time

Tracking body weight can be a struggle because what the scale shows can fluctuate significantly and unreliably for many reasons, including total body water, bowel contents, menstrual cycle, and more. These big swings can be noisy and demoralizing, and they don't tell the complete picture of your weight change.

That's why MacrosFirst automatically calculates your moving average, smoothing out the trend line of your weight change over time, so you can focus on the bigger picture.

Add a weight entry

There are several ways to add a weight entry in MacrosFirst:

From the Bottom Navigation

  1. Tap the + button in the bottom-right corner.

  2. Select Log Weight

  3. Enter your weight and tap Save.

From the Weight Chart

  1. From the Dashboard, tap the Weight chart.

  2. Tap the + button in the top-right corner.

  3. Enter your weight and tap Save.

From Widgets

If you've added a MacrosFirst home screen or lock screen widget, you can quickly record a weigh-in directly from the widget.

You can also automatically import daily body weight entries using the Apple Health integration or Google Health Connect.

Delete or Edit a weight entry

To edit or delete today's weight entry:

  1. Open the weigh-in entry screen

  2. Enter a new weight value to update it or tap the trash can icon to delete it.

To edit or delete the weight entry on a past date:

  1. Open the weigh-in entry screen

  2. Tap the date picker to open up the calendar

  3. Select the date you would like to update

  4. Enter a new weight value to update it or tap the trash can icon to delete it.

Exploring the Body Weight Graph

From the Dashboard, tap into the Weight chart to enter the interactive weight graph.

You can change the date range of the graph by tapping the preset date range buttons under the graph or by pinching and swiping in the graph itself.

The graph can display:

  • Daily weight entries

  • Weekly average body weight

  • Monthly average body weight

You can also control what data is shown in the graph by tapping the "Scale Weight" and "Trend Weight" labels at the very top of the page to show/hide each metric.

For a closer look at your recorded data, scroll below the graph to view your weight trends, see your 30-day projected weight, and access individual entries.

Using the Weigh-in Habit Tracker

The weigh-in habit card on your dashboard shows your daily weigh-ins over the last 30 days. When you tap on the card you can view your complete weigh-in history to see your habits over all time.

Use it to:

  • Quickly see which days have recorded weight entries

  • Identify missed weigh-ins

  • Tap on any date to add or update weight entries

Consistent weigh-ins help create a more accurate trend line and provide better insight into long-term progress.
