Thanks for your comments everybody that liked it! I think it'll make it easier for people to stick to if they see what will happen if they do/what won't happen if they don't!
Math isn't fun, it's lovely having applications that do the numbers for you!

Well this is certainly addicting...lol I have calculated about a dozen different combinations. I've settled on 1500 cal a day with 3 - 5 workouts a week. By this, I'll be hot stuff by my birthday! :)

Another way to get these predictions is with an Excel spreadsheet. You can autofill the first column with each day of the year. When you do a weigh-in (I do mine every Friday morning), you put that weight in the second column on the correct date. In Chart Wizard, it'll chart those points and then you can choose to have Excel draw a best-fit line for those points. As you add more points on the chart, it updates the best fit line. I like it a lot. Really boosts my confidence that I'll reach my goal. And if I plateau for a few weeks, it just pulls the line up a bit, instead of causing self-talk that I'm failing and will never reach my goal.

QUOTE: QUOTE: QUOTE: QUOTE: What? If you're set to lose 1 pound per week then just count the weeks... why do you need a web site to calculate this for you? It seems a little more complicated than that. It calculates the changing calorie needs and deficits as you lose weight. So if you weigh 250lb you need a certain deficit to lose 2lb, but if you weigh 125lb you would have different calculations. As you lose, your calculations change. it's not, really, more complicated than that. Your goals and your calories burned change along the way and you adjust with them. Why do people think math is complicated? It's not. REALLY it's not. Maybe some people have more interesting stuff to do than work it out, and like the fact that someone else has done it. And maybe some people DO find maths complicated. We can't all be perfect. Some people really do find maths complicated. It's called dyscalculia and it prevents you from being able to think about numbers the way an English speaker might have trouble conceiving of Mandarin characters. They just mean nothing to you, and all of the concentrating in the world won't help. My sister has it quite badly, and if she stares at her math book for long enough, the numbers start to meld together. Once I did a simple calculation in my head and she looked at me as if I'd just performed black magic. And for you (Original Person) to lord it over others because you're better at math than they are is fairly offensive. You may as well ask a diabetic person why they think producing insulin is so complicated, or a blind person why they can't be bothered seeing. It's not a decision to just not bother understanding it. Some people are good at it. Some people are bad at it. Some people can't do it at all. And it's none of your god-damned business anyway. |

I dont think this worked so well for me either... I mean it sounds like a good idea, but I eat calories tailored to the weight I am now... those will decrease as my weight decreases because i wont need to eat 1740 cals everyday... so shouldn't one put in their maintenance cals versus what theyre actually eating right now?
