I actually don't know. Never actually thought about remembering the weight as it changes from day to day depending on the calories I eat.0

It says you will have those results in 5 weeks if EVERYTHING was the same...same workout, same food, same everything..So unless it is, it probably wont turn out exactly like what it says.0
-
I honestly didn't pay attention.0
-
no, @ this point I ignore that.0
-
Pretty close to it, and even if it wasnt its a nice little peice of motivation for me0
-
No i ignore that because i don't do everything the exact same every single day haha0
-
Yes, its pretty darn close for me, too.0

I honestly can't tell you, but what I can is……..I'm so anal about these types of things, that I started writing what it says down and I'm going to check it in 5 weeks! :laugh:
Seriouosly, it does change everyday as someone said, so you really can't hold it accountable. I think it is just another way to help
encourage you…..or discourage you.0 -
Initially, it was pretty accurate, but as I got closer to my goal weight, things slowed down a lot! Don't let it discourage you.
Please refer to your goal # 5:)0 -
I actually was looking at this earlier and I took my top net calories from 5 weeks ago and I'm actually under what it said I would weigh.0
-
I've been doing this for 3 months and it has been relatively close- sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. I think it's pretty good given the variability in my diet. But I am brutally honest with recording things and if I am not sure I try to overestimate what I ate.0

My diet/workout varies daily. However, if I take an average of a few "What you will weighs" in a row, it is pretty close for me.0

well i've been doing this for two weeks, and two weeks ago, it said i would weigh 110 lbs in 5 weeks, that means that 3 weeks from now i should lose 9 lbs to be at 110. i have been losing about 2 lbs a week, and if i keep that up i am going to lose 6 lbs in 3 weeks.. 6 to 9 lbs isnt too off, but who knows. if you eat good and work out for 5 days straight, then eat a slice of pizza without working out 1 day, it jumps from 108 lbs in 5 weeks to 119 in 5 weeks. i wouldnt rely on it, but it does motivate me to keep eating well when they show you low numbers0

ive look back at it from time to time and sometimes im less than it said and others more...its nice to look at it and hope i get to that weight but it doesnt bother me either way....i know i will get there eventually and its a marathon not a sprint...so its just fun!:happy:0
-
i am the same way.. i will record the calories in a crumb if i could lol and if i dont know it, i usually over estimate.0

-
nope, too many variables. I don't even press it anymore.0
-

-
NO! It varies each day of course, but nope, I don't lose that much. Wish i did. DOn't know what I'm doing wrong, but I keep at it.0
