Why is my **ahem** account changing my preferences from weight in pounds to kilos? If I wanted to use some stupid, foreign system of measurements, I'd change it myself. There should be a lock on my settings plus I should be able to reset them from my phone without having to come here and spend ten minutes searching these archaic menus.

I've found that the weight settings can be updated if I change my location on fitbit.com or in the community

Thanks Steve. In this instance, I hadn't been on fitbit.com nor in the community since last Spring . Apparently, they arbitrarily make changes to our preferences "for our convenience".  😞
