    :flowerforyou: Your five weeks will be here in a blink of an eye. You just keep doing what you are doing and it will pay off. I prescribe a "Skinny Wed Challenge" for you. This will help you over the midweek slump we all encounter. Before you know it you will be heading into the weekend with your head held high.

    Hope to see you in the Skinny Wed. Challenge! :smile:

    One time I entered my stuff and clicked that magic button and it said I would be ____ in 5 weeks. I then realized that I didn't enter my water so I updated it and decided to click the button again. It said I would be 3 lbs heavier (or something like that) in 5 weeks. Now I just look at it as a joke, kind of :laugh:

    I thought I was the only one who felt this way. I've been with MFP for only eight days and I already have issues with "5 Weeks!" It's such a tease :laugh:

    FOR REAL!!!! wouldn't it be better if after the 1st time u log on, it says in 5 weeks ...and then it keeps track and COUNTS DOWN??? haha....4.gif

    You're right. Counting down from five weeks would be perfect! Funny what we put into numbers. I changed my ticker from "pounds to lose" to "pounds lost" because pounds to lose, to me, is an indicator of work I have to do. When I see the number, I instinctively groan. :grumble: But pounds lost is an indicator of my success .. which I need to see often in order to achieve more success and reach my goal .. and that makes me smile! :bigsmile:

    I like that!!!! I also thought the same thing when i picked my ticker...i want to feel successful, and seeing lost makes me feel that way!!!! woohoooo!!!!! Can't wait to see what 5 weeks holds!!!!

    My 5 weeks posting keeps saying I'm only going to lose like 3 pounds by then. Seriously??!?! What's the point?

    The point is that you can see where you'll be in 5 weeks if you continue doing what you're doing. If you clean up your eating, you can have even more impressive results. However, 3 pounds in 5 weeks sounds pretty good to me. That's 6 pounds in 10 weeks, 9 pounds in 15 weeks, 12 pounds in 20 weeks, and so on. Can you picture a big can of shortening? That's 3 pounds of fat. Wouldn't you feel great if you lost one of those every 5 weeks? :bigsmile:
