Don't "clap"/celebrate if underweight

Due to illness, I recently lost weight to the point of underweight (BMI 18.2). When I updated my weight in the FitBit app, it congratulated me with applause and a badge for losing weight. My current weight is below my "goal weight" in the app. The app should not applaud or give badges to celebrate once BMI gets below a healthy range.
This is needed because:
It is unhealthy to celebrate being underweight and can be triggering to those with eating disorders.
I'd use this: Daily
