What do you think of MFP's weight prediction at the end of each day? I know it's not reliable at all, but have any of you noticed your weight loss line up with it? Just curious.

    Ehhh, based on "numbers" I guess its right, I just want it to stop telling me "in 5 weeks...." That feature actually drives me NUTS.

    I am still waiting for my 5 weeks to get here so I can weigh 199.6 or whatever.

    It's absurd. For me, anyway. I'm 47, in menopause.I average about 1400 calories (intake) a day and a few hundred burned running every other day, walking to work every day, and with weights.
    Each day it says something like: 123 in five weeks. MY goal in 5 weeks is 130. THAT would be a miracle.

    I'm averaging about 1/4 a pound a month. Yay menopause!

    It's rubbish. Don't let it rule your world, or derail your healthy work.

    It is motivating for me... but i doubt it is accurate!

    so far mine has been within a lb. or two of being on the money. Hopefully it stays that way! I love this feature, and look forward to the end of the day to see what I have to look forward to!!!!
