Question about the logs!

I noticed over the past couple of days after I log in my food and exercise it has a thumbs up and it says "your target date should be reached by... This date keeps getting further and further away from my goal date. My goal date is Sept 2009 and it says be met by May 19, 2010. What am I doing wrong. The eat meter says "daily goal" 1665 and I have been under that by maybe 50-100. and the burn meter usually are close. Any help understanding this would be great.

IT is doing this to me as well.   The first one said sept 18 2009,  which is a month after my goal date.  And now every day it gets adjust and is one day farther away.   I wouldn't worry about it to much.   I haven't weighed in much so I imagine it will change drastically every time I do get around to weigh in.

Still< I'd love know why it does that.

Thank you Luna.. I hope we can figure it out. I went to the dr today and lost 4lbs this week So I put that into my weight log and now the date say April 2010.. I wouldnt mind the sept or the april.. but lets keep it withing th same yr not 2010..lol

Thanks for your reply!

The thumbs up and goal date is based on your 10 most recent weights entered into the system.  What it is saying is that if you continue to lose weight at the rate you are, you will hit your goal on that day.

It will even everything out, so if you are a daily weigher, this actually plays against you.

regardless -- don't obsess over a date, most people either exceed their date or come in early, most don't hit it.  This is real life, not a computer system -- there WILL be bumps in the road along the way.  If you are losing and are comfortable, then just don't look at the the calorie coach

Ok thank you.. I understand now. I have only logged in 2 weigh in's. I just started this 3 weeks ago.

Thanks again.

I've always thought that it should say "If you keep on as you are now, your goal will be reached by ..."  because when you log new data the information changes.
