Calorie coach is confusing. mh2292
  Jul 19 2008 23:39

Basically I am trying to gain twenty pounds by the end of the year, and I have only been on calorie count plus for a week. Today I just updated my weight to 122 pounds (my start weight was 120 pounds, so I gained 2 pounds). I am on track as far as I can tell, however once I updated my weight, the calorie coach now says that I will reach my goal on march 18th, 2008. Which is four months ago. Does the calorie coach not work with weight gain or am I doing somthing wrong?

Thanks.Smile

I wouldn't pay too much attention to calorie coach if I were you, lots of people post questions about it's judgement... It seems to me that it's quite a bit off for a lot of us :)

I have problems with it too. I want to gain weight, but the goals are only to maintain weight or lose weight. The thing doesn't work with the gain weight folk! I was 116, the system put me on a weight maintain - I went up to 124 and now I have a thumbs down because I am not maintaining. So you are right, I don't think they are in it for those who want to gain.
