    I hate that "if every day were like today". I wish MFP would just take it off. It has said for the longest time that in 5 weeks I'll be at least 10 pounds lighter than I am. And I'm never 10 pounds lighter in 5 weeks! But I am lighter every week so I guess I'll just ignore it!
  • I just stopped finishing the day so that I wouldn't have to see those lies. lol

    aww... I'm apparently the outcast.... I like it!!! To me it says "Work hard and you could see this number!" I never really kept track enough to notice whether I was reaching that number... the scale just keeps going in the right direction so I'm happy :-)

    I disregard that completely. But in my case, it's because I'm gaining muscle, thus not losing anything (or I'm gaining instead).


    I say: Measurements, measurements, measurements! :flowerforyou:

    I don't lose as fast as it says I will, but I'm still making progress. It's fine by me.

    I'm going to have to disagree and say I think its true and if it isn't I like to hope so. I love entering the end of the day just to get that number. Even if I mess up badly one or two days and I enter in my TOO large calorie count it makes me feel like 'ok I will not blimp out because of today's entire tub of vanilla frosting and half container of ice cream (true story from yesterday) if I did this everyday for 5 weeks I'd gain eleven pounds and I would totally deserve it for being gross.' That little line at the end of the day makes me feel like its okay to f-up once in while or it makes me proud and excited on how good I did and puts a happy goal in my future outlook. I hope myfitnesspal never gets rid of that little line... I would be heartbroken.

    bahaha i was JUST posting on someone's status about this! i WISH those predictions were more on target, unfortunately they're disappointing, though sometimes motivational when i see it say a lower number when i submit my food diary ♥

    I also hate that stupid line.. it told me a few weeks ago that if every day were like today, I'd weigh 143 pounds or something like that in 5 weeks.. right, I'm going to drop 14 pounds in 5 weeks, when I'm at 7 till goal.. silly MFP.

    That's because every day isn't like today.... every day changes. Our food changes, exercise changes....heck we could lose more than they say!

    YES!!!!!! I would love that.


    Ooo! Yes, that would be awesome! Maybe it'll switch it up, depending on how hard you worked your *kitten* off at the gym.
