Weird question...

You know when you finish out your day by clicking end the day? Then it tells you - if you keep eating like today you'll weigh XX in 5 weeks.
- Does that mean 5 weeks from today or in the first 5 weeks?...

    I believe it's saying, "If you keep it up, you'll be XXX lbs in 5 weeks."

    It means 5 weeks from today, assuming you do everyday exactly the same as you did today and that it is correct.

    Don't even look at that. You'll be nowhere near there in 5 weeks. It's a broken calculation.

    I also noticed the calculation isn't great. It told me I'd loose something like 5 pounds in 5 weeks when I lost 5 the first week. I also work out every day which doesn't calculate into it. I haven't figured out how to set that up yet

    It is a simple calculation based on your calorie deficit. Unfortunately, inaccuracies make it impossible to determine a calorie deficit exactly, so it is highly unlikely that you will be whatever it says in five weeks.

    It doesn't take into account water weight loss which is probably what the above poster experienced in the first week
