    I haven't stayed on MFP that long to know but everyone is different! I personally don't believe in the whole "calories in calories out thing" to a T.. Everyone stores energy at a different rate

    No, but I don't eat the exact same things or workout the exact same for 5 weeks.

    I've tested this theory several times. You have to repeat basically the exact amount of exercise/ cals, etc everyday for that 5 weeks or you won't be on target. If you do you'll be amazed- I have had several occasions where it was dead on- but only when I was staying motivated day after day, week after week!

    You've got to be totally consistent, and your settings need to be dialed in. From what I see in your diary, you're not eating optimally - leaving hundreds of calories on the table every day - so no, your weight loss will not go as predicted.

    I just like seeing that number :laugh:

    ditto!!!

    i never do reach it. I guess because i don't do the exact same thing every day and eat exactly the same and exercise the same either...so it doesn't work out for me either. But, it feels awesome to see that number! hahahahaha
