I am doing a medically-supervised weight loss program and because it is less than 1000 calories per day, my diary never shows my projections of weight loss 5 weeks into the future. Is there a way to change this? I really would like to see where I would be in the future. Thanks!

    MFP can't, for liability reasons. They can't encourage users to try that type of diet on their own. There are other apps and websites that can give you a trend based on your weigh-ins, though. Libra for Android, modelmydiet.com , and I'm sure there are others.

    Thank you! Much appreciated as I really would like to see how long it will take me to get to where I am trying to go.

    Understand that whatever method you use to determine a rate it won't be linear. It may be accurate long-term (or close), but won't likely look like it day to day or week to week even if you are consistent.
