Thank you for posting, I will start paying attention to that so that soon I will make it past the 200 mark. That’s my goal for 2011 & I have a new Sister – Friend on this site who support me a lot & I do believe with this added information I will make it. I’ll let you know how true is for me to reach what it show.
Keep it up you are doing great. :flowerforyou:0 -

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! keep up the great work and even better positive attitude0

Congratulations on such great progress! I'm always thrilled to see people making this work for themselves!
I love the "in 5 weeks" estimates and have kept an eye on them too. I have to admit I was surprised that I lost exactly the amount of weight in the amount of time I set for my goal when signing up. I figured with all the "life happens" that we *know* happens along the way, I'd be happy to lose 8 pounds in 12 weeks, nevermind 6. MFP laid out how to do it, I followed the plan, and HOT DAMN it worked!!!0 -
Wow, Thanks for that!0

That is awesome! Soo glad... altho all days are different for me lol but nice to know if you keep on the same path, you will eventually get there!0

Stay with it! You will keep losing as long as you keep making great choices like you have been! I recently hit my first 5 week (2 days ago) and I weighed a teeny bit less than predicted. Really great stuff
AWESOME! Congrats to you! I would have been under too if I hadn't been sick and without exercise for a whole week!0 -
This is awesome!!! I'm going to start tracking it too. I know mine isn't as dead on because i don't have the exact same intake and exercise every day, but knowing that it WORKS for sure will help set those little goals I SO can't wait to see the scale go under 250!!! For every time the 2nd digit on the scale goes down I know I am closer and closer to getting that first number to drop too.0

So 5 weeks ago I started recording the "If every day were like today you'd weigh... in 5 weeks" in my note section of my diary. I am glad to announce that it was almost dead on!
It said in 5 weeks I'd weigh 322.1lbs, well today was 5 weeks and I weighed in this morning at 322.0lbs -I try and eat the same amount of cals a day, I exercise at least a half hour every day (Unless I am sick/injured) so the number doesnt change much from my day to day diaries. A few days ago I completed my diary and it said I'd be under 300lbs for the first time- I felt like squealing like little girl with excitement- since well obviously it was dead on then, if I keep my healthy habits up, I'll be there soon! I just wanted to share in case some of you were wondering if that number is in fact somewhat reliable, because it's proving to be true for me!
Hope you're all having a great day and moving!
THANK YOU for posting this!! We were just making jokes about these "notices" earlier today and I was ready to swear they were not accurate! LMHO Now I'll take them more seriously! I really liked what it told me today. ♡0 -
Wow great job and thanks for sharing- major motivation girl!!0

I'm glad that the statement is true for someone, because it sure isn't true for me. I'm about to give up. I did Weight Watchers last fall and after 12 weeks my total outcome was a gain of 12 pounds. Then they went to the new Points Plus where most all fruits and veggies were zero points, which to me meant more food to eat--which equals more calories--which equals more weight gain. I came to MFP, lost 5 pounds the first week and one pound a week after that. I lost a total of 9 pounds. I am still keeping my food diary. I am still at or a little under my daily calorie limit; however, I have gained 3 pounds back. I think I am too old (60-something) to even care anymore. Of course my doctors are screaming about the possible health risks I face at my age, but none so far.0
