My weight trend is going down, but I'm still getting a thumbs down sign on my account page. Can someone explain, please? I even modified my goal date :(
I can't get mine to register anything it says it can't veify- something about changing my start and goal dates but even then it won't register.
im confused by this thing too! i have a thumbs up and it says I will reach my goal by Dec 11, but when I go to the calorie allowance tool it says any date before Jan is too aggressive! i dont' get it haha
o wait, i just looked at it again and it says i won't make my goal until dec 11 2008! what? i've lost 30 pounds since march, why would it take me over a year to lose another 40?
um, mine says i won't make my goal until april 30, 2009! jesus...
haha the bodyless hand has no faith in us!
yeah, it's really freakin depressing. what the hell? if i gotta wait till 2009 anyways, i'm gonna get ice cream for dinner tonight. not very motivating.
hahaha i like that. i was all excited about it until i realized it said 2008 and then i'm like ok thanks for the support! haha i guess we just have to prove hte giant thumbwrong!
you got it, katie! we'll prove the giant thumb wrong...
and ironically, when i wrote that last post, i totally intended of having a salad for dinner, but i went out with a friend and we walked past an ice cream shop...and yep, i had mint chocolate chip for dinner.
Same problems here. Until we get an explanation from someone in the know, I think we can safely assume it is not working correctly.
phew, I'm glad to know that it's not just me. Mine says March 2009!!! I know I fell off the wagon a bit, but geez Louise! It's not like I fell off the whole continent!
Wow, disheartening!
Looking at the two tools, it looks like the Calorie Coach is basing things off the date you joined, and is extrapolating it from there. For example, I joined one year ago, I want to lose 30 pounds, and have lost 10 so far, therefore it will take 2 more years to get where I want to go.
The calorie target looks like it is calculating when you should hit your target weight, if you only consume XXXX calories, and you burn YYYY calories.
Is there some way to sync these two up?
Yeah, it definately is not working. Mine says I will reach my goal by March 28, 2008 and I have 135 lbs to lose. I could only wish it would take me 8 months to do that, but sadly I don't think that will happen.
Can someone tell me what the thumb is for? I looked in the help section but it is still unclear to me.
I have a thumbs down and I'm having a good nutritious day with exercise...
Is it just for weight loss or nutrition or what???
I have a thumbs up. BUT... it says I won't reach my goal until October 2010. I only have 19.5 lbs to lose. WTF?
I'm just going to tell Firefox's blocking plugin to block the image till it's sorted out...
ohjanet, same here. I won't lose my remaining 17lbs before mid 2011!! Not happy about that. On the other hand, if it's based on my weight loss history, it could be true since it's been really slow for me.
darlings... no worries =) im not going to lose my 8 pounds til i die =)
Mine says I'll reach my goal in 2011 ! Ugg! Not if I can help it!
I tried to edit my goals but it never changes even though it gives me a new date on the editing page. I click update but it stays the same on the home page. Still have the thumbs down due to the date. Maybe I'll go back to the classic and see what happens.
Edited to say: I updated it in the classic and the update ended up on plus. But still the thumbs down even though I edited my goal date.
I had this trouble yesterday and found a solution. Go to your weight log and delete the starting weight it has placed as your current weight. When I did this all was solved and I got my weight log back and my correct data.
