I found this today, read about it on fitbie. Gave it a shot, and everything adds up (says I should eating 2000 calories a day to lose weight, which is what I do now and lose 1-2lbs a week) and that when I want to maintain, I should eat about 2500 a day. I get it. The little graph at the bottom is weird though. It looked like if I keep at what I am doing, then it said day 1, which I assume is tomorrow, I should weight 198. That'd be 2 lbs in a day o.O I'm not going by that, but figured I could share and see if any of you guys like it ^-^

    It's similar to what's available here. The key is tweaking the numbers to really match your own specific needs. It took me a few days to get my grove here, but everything is spot on. Most people would never even bother.

    Yeah, very similar. But it helps to affirm this program as some people seem to question it. The daily breakdown was interesting.
