How to change weight loss start date on new 2020 Fitbit software

None of the instructions I find online work for my iphone or desktop app. I'm trying to reset the start date for my weight loss.  I used to be able to do this on the iphone by clicking the account icon then finding Nutrition and Body.  I can't find either of these.  I can't find settings for Nutrition and Body on the desktop app either.  Can someone direct me where to find these settings now, May, 2020.

Short of an "official" reply, here was my workaround/desktop app.  Reset your computer clock to the day you want to be your weight loss start date.  In my case that was April 23, 2020.  Go into the app per the instructions above.  Update your start weight or goal weight as needed.  Reset your computer clock. 

This is not an elegant solution, but hey, it worked.

@foodsleuth I hope you're doing well! Sorry for the delay in my reply.

 

Let me help you with your changing your weight loss start day. Tap the weight tile > gear icon and there you will see the option to change the date and starting weigh.

 

Let me know how it goes.

Are you referring to the desk top app?  Clicking the tile, then the gear, shows start weight, goal weight, delete goal.  No date.  Am I missing something?

Foodsleuth's workaround did the trick for me and I have an Inspire 2!!  Thank you so much.  Hopefully Fitbit is paying attention - how hard could it be to allow users to edit the goal start date??
