Saving measurements fails

[Iakov]

Hi all!

I'm running into a weird error when trying to save measurements (weight) into MFP. The command fails without much output. When I've enabled debugging of requests module, I've found out that MFP returns a redirect to login page instead of saving data and redirecting back to measurements.

I've added some debug logs to your code to see what happens. It looks something like this:

Any idea what might cause this?

Hello,

Did you ever resolve this? I may be having a similar issue, if it's not the same let me know and I'll create a new bug.

Code:
import myfitnesspal
client = myfitnesspal.Client('username', password='password')
print(client.set_measurements(measurement="Weight",value=weight))

Output:
None
<class 'set'>

Result: The above output and no changes to MFP.

Hi @JeffWDH. I wasn't able to solve this unfortunately.

I believe this is fixed via #129 , but let me know if this is still an issue.
