So I've been on a weight loss journey recently. For consistency I weigh myself at the same time in the mornings, after using the restroom but before eating. My scale is a Fitbit Aria, so for months I've just been manually logging weight in my Garmin Connect app and my Aria syncs to Google on its own and I don't really think about it. Yesterday, I weighed myself in the afternoon, knowing it was going to be an oddball and not planning on logging it in Garmin. Today I noticed it had that weight in Connect though! I know unequivocally I did not enter it, so Garmin must now be pulling data from the new Google Health app. Has anyone else seen anything pull across like this? It's nice to see they may be opening up syncing on some of these things!

i just weight myself and don't record it.. I know I'm losing weight and I don't need any companies like Google knowing anything more about me, especially when they sell it like theyavre clearly doing right now.
