When and why did MFP stop showing what you would weigh in 5 weeks if you're under a certain amount of calories? Yeah, i dont mind the warning, but still show my what my 5 week projection is.

    A while back, and because the feature was rife with abuse due to people with disordered eating consuming wildly low calories and then using the projection to spur themselves to keep doing so. It is a liability issue.

    For men, it will show if you eat at least 1200 cals a day

    It's to not motivate anorexics :)

    It's not as though your diary shows you missing your goal by a few calories. 1100ish for the entire weekend?

    As long as a female eats 1000 it will not give you the warning and will give you what you will weigh in 5 werks

    The other issue is you can always add a 100 cal "Cup of Nothing", with a neutral macro. Skates past the problem entirely. This is what I use on my 24 hour fast days.
