I've got an Aria that measures my weight and body fat.
This syncs with my Myfitnesspal account, but somewhere between Fitbit and MFP, the weight data changes (both accounts are in kilograms). This morning for example, my Aria reported a weight of 90kg. Somehow this made it to MFP as 90.1.
That alone would be ok, except that the MFP weight data, being different to Fitbit, then syncs back to Fitbit, and in doing so, erases my bodyfat data.
It doesn't happen every day, but recently, it's been happening every 2nd or 3rd day.
If I had to *guess*, I'd say there is a kilos to pounds conversion taking place somewhere, and different weights are due to rounding before converting it back to kilos. The problem is, I have no way of telling which end the problem is occuring on.
The slight difference doesn't actually bother me. It's less than the weight fluctuations I get from day to day anyway. What bothers me though is the loss of bodyfat data, and I'm not sure how to fix that without disabling sync between the two accounts (which isn't an option)

Just in case it makes a difference, I've removed sync permissions between the accounts and then re-enabled it.
Will see how it goes over the next few days...

And today it's weirder...
I got on the scales this morning and measured 89.9kgs. MFP shows 89.8 as well. However, the Fitbit dashboard shows my weight as 89.7kgs (but still has my body fat percentage as well).
