    Eating the same thing everyday for 5 weeks would get boring fast! But the idea of weigh x amount in 5 weeks is motivating.

    Hasn't worked for me. Then again, I've hit a weight plateau and no extra exercise has made my weight budge so far. Bummer.

    Thank you, My Fitness Pal, for having this tool.
    It told me I was going to gain weight, and it was right on.
    It helped me to turn around.
    I think it's a great motivational tool, and a sharp eye opener!

    Thanks for all of the responses :) It is definitely a good motivational tool because that is my favorite thing to do after I enter in my food entry for the day. I'm going to mark it on my calendar and see how accurate it is like some of you suggested.

    I copy it into my food notes and look at my computer calender for 5 weeks ahead, then mark that day.

    I use it as a "hey, when you behave well like today you'll be... " in 5 weeks, or when I had my full rack of ribs it said I'd only be down 1 lb in 5 weeks! I use it to motivate me and go, ok, today wasn't so good, lets not eat like that tomorrow and get back on track.
