    I love it, haha! It keeps on me on track and gives me hope. haven't stuck with it for five weeks yet so I don't know if it is accurate or not, but so far it keeps me motivated. :)

    I love it as well...it is part of my insane motivation. When I hit 5 weeks and I'm not down nearly as much as it says I should be then maybe I'll be mad...but as long as I'm losing I think I will be ok...Guess it's time to go walk...I want to be down to that number...now where's my water?

    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 :-)

    Same here, and mathematically, if you kept the exact same deficit everyday, then what MFP calculates as the 5 week loss would be true. But as we ALL know, we're human and find it hard to be consistent down to the calorie. Keep up the deficit, you'll get there :flowerforyou:

    I'm sure it would be true for me if everyday were like today, however it's not. Also, it could have a lot to do with (not just your body, but) calorie and exercise miscalculations.

    It seems to be working for me so far. I've been losing faster than MFP predicts.

    I do enter every crumb that enters my mouth, every single day, erring on the side of more, not less. And I do eat my workout calories, which vary from about 350 - 500 cals. Also, I don't work out on the weekends, so I only eat 1200 cals a day on Sat/Sun.

    Is everyone else doing the same?

    I swear I want to throw my computer every time MFP says that to me. It's lies! All lies!!! Bwahahahaha!! Every day IS like today, gosh darnit, and I am NOT 143 pounds! :devil:

    GRRRRRRRRR! I hate seeing that everyday and still being stuck on a plateau.
    It should let us hide that part on here!

    Since I'm not going for weight loss as much as for fat loss, I don't pay it much attention.

    Awe I thought it was true and I was actually looking forward to it.. lame




    I know right..now I'm discouraged. Maybe it says that so we unconsiously reach for that goal?
