Interim Report on Calorie-Based Weight Model
I’ve been logging calorie intake and spending for almost a month now… and modeling how the predicted weight loss tracks my actual weight. I’m happy to say the agreement is excellent!
If you want to do the same, I recommend fitday.com for the logging, but I can share the spreadsheet I use to graph the data.

Nice visualization – and congrats!

Thank you!
If I can’t have the numbers and play around with or graph them, it doesn’t feel real to me.

LABELS!!! Your diagram needs to be properly labeled for you to properly transmit information.

Thank you, your comment is a prime example of your point, and I applaud your use of irony.

Hey there, this is an awesome spreadsheet. I made one for my wife and it was very motivating for her. Nothing like what you have here though. Would you mind sharing the spreadsheet?
