Hi,

I am new to MFP and I can't tell you how much I am enjoying the blogs. I especially people who share their "before" and "after" photos which are so inspiring!

I have a question that I hope one of you seasoned MFP users can answer. When I finish my food diary for the day, how accurate is the statement "if everyday were like today, you would weigh ____ in five weeks"?

Thanks in advance!:flowerforyou:

    Idk about others but for me, not very accurate; off by 3 lbs, so I really shouldn't complain. Just saying, it's an average but everybody's body is different and I have gone over calories sometimes. Good luck and welcome to MFP, it does help logging your food.

    It's a big fat liar. It's NEVER accurate.

    None of my days are the same twice in row, much less five weeks...
