MFP Predicted 5 week weight

Mine have been accurate before, but really it's just a mathmatical estimation based on your settings. If you are a perfectly standard human being and do everything exactly how you say you will in those settings, then it should be fairly accurate. Most people either aren't a "perfectly standard" human though, or don't log exactly perfectly, so it's bound to off, but it's a good motivator & can be inspiring!

judging by your diary your eating way too little. so although u 'may' lose that much...it would include muscle mass and u would be missing out on a whole bunch of nutrients. with so little to lose u should aim for 1lb a week max. this would be far healthier and sustainable.

To lose 14.5 lb (139 down to 124.5) over 5 weeks you would need to sustain a calorie deficit of 1450 per day. Given your age and weight, your basal metabolic rate is only about 1450 calories, so to achieve that weight loss you almost would need to be on a starvation diet. Not a good idea.

Hi I'm currently roughly 139lbs and after entering a sample exercise and diet for a day it says that in 5 weeks time i'll be 124.5lbs which is just over a stone weight loss, has anyone's predictions ever been close or even less than what they actually lost? Please share I'd love to know if it works.
