The app set me a goal of 1500 calories if i wanted to lose 1kg a week. But after 3 weeks of keeping my calory intake below 1500, the app still shows that i haven't lost weight. Any reason why?

    Have you logged your weight? The app isn't going to show it if YOU don't enter it.

    Eh, did you weigh yourself to check if you had lost weight?

    Yep, you have to weight yourself and then record you weight.

    Oh my bad. I thought the app would simply decrease 1 kg from the given weight if i managed to complete one week. Thnx for clearing the confusion

    You must enter your weight daily, weekly, monthly or whatever you wish in the progress section.

    You have to weigh yourself and tell MFP if you've lost or gained. Weight loss is not linear, so only you will know what the results for that week are until you input it.

    Or, (sorry for the plug here but I love my scale), you can get one of these cool WiFi Withings scales (other people might make them, I don't know), and every time you step on them it automatically broadcasts your weight to the Withings web site, and, if you hook it up to here, it automatically posts it to MFP also.

    It's cool! :)
