Help on the journey.
So I just joined MFP a few days ago. Been trying to figure out to use everything properly and how I want it. Have to say this site is rather amazing. I'm 27 years old, I've already lost over 100 pounds but I still have 50+ that I want to lose which even though it is less than half still seems like a daunting task.…

How accurate is the 5 week notice?
I am wondering how accurate members have found the notice that says you would weigh this much if every day was like this? Is it estimating high, low, (by how much) or have you found it fairly accurate.

Closing your diary for the day
I am just curious as to when most people close their food diary for the day. I usually close my at night before I go to bed. Do you pre-log and close early? Do you wait until the next morning? Or, like me, before you go to bed?

Nutrition resource
Is there a website that has accurate calorie information that you trust and can recommend? I have looked at MFP's info, and constantly see a wide variation in calorie values for the same food. I know that a lot of this info is provided by MFP members, but I'd like to get it as exact as possible.
