anyone else find that clicking that little button at the end of the day just ramps you up and keeps you motivated to do it again the next day and see what it says???

i love it lol! keeps me just addicted enough, :laugh:

does anyone who's been around here for a while find that it's pretty spot on along with their settings being spot on [ for example if you are set to 1 lb a week are you losing on average 4 pounds a month even if some weeks are nothing and some are more then others?]

so glad i found this site! :drinker:

    My sister showed me that and she pointed and said "THAT'S what will keep you motivated. 5 weeks. That's the beginning of October. You could fit into a size less Halloween costume."
    I'm so glad she brought me to this site to help me!

    That fact made me elated :bigsmile:

    Well as for the ticker it keeps me going as well. I've been on hear about 15 months and i'm not sure if it is correct however I can say that I followed this to a "T" for 5 months and I lost 45 LBS which is is about 9 LBS a month and I had it set to lose 2 LBS a week, so by those numbers i would say it is very close.

    That is what is keeping me motivated, too! I've only been on here about a week or so, and I love seeing that message at the end of the day. I wrote down a date and the weight the site said I might weigh if I continue in 5 weeks, so we'll see! :happy:

    WOW! :bigsmile: That is how I feel at the end of each day when I see that number! It keeps me so pumped and helps me to stay focused. I type the number in at the bottom of my food diary each night and I use it as a reference point. There was a time the scales didn't move for 4 weeks and I went back to compare my foods and exercise. I was able to change a few things and realized what I needed to do to get back on track. I have been on the site for 11weeks and have lost 13.1 pounds!!! :bigsmile:

    when you click the my home tab, you know how you get the summary of where you're at for the day so far?? and the newest threads up so far???

    well right under that is a lil green button that says "finished logging for the day" or something to that effect, click it and see what happens :wink:
    you can always unclick it too :)
