| I've finally gotten around to implementing goals. This is the first attempt so please let me know of any issues you come across or any ideas you have for improvement. Here's a brief summary of the functionality. There are 2 types of goals you can create - event or weight. An example of an event goal would be a 5k that you would like to run or a charity bike ride. You'll input the date and the system will keep you updated as to how many days remain until that date. The other goal is weight driven. This would include any type of weight gain/loss. The system will track the number of days remaining until your target date in addition to your weight fluctuations during that period. It will also recommend a target date that allows for a healthy rate of weight loss/gain. Manage your goals from the Custom -> Goals menu item. You will notice a new box on the home page that shows your upcoming goals, a description, and a bar graph of days remaining. You will also see a new icon on the calendar page relating to your goal. Click on this icon or the name of the goal on the home page to view a summary page of the goal. You will see all the goal information and a larger bar chart depicting your progress in days. Weight driven goals will also show your starting weight, current weight, and target weight in addition to a line chart showing your weight fluctuations during the goal period. Again, please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for this functionality. Thanks,
Trevor Stith

Trevor, just want to congratulate you on a great website. It's really helping to keep me motivated  .I like adding my goals and think it's a great feature. What i think would be a great addition to this feature would to be able to see a graph plotting progress to reaching the goals. I suppose this would only be relevant to weight goals at the mo. It would be great to be able to log weekly goals like - to take part in 4 exercise classes per week etc. I think short-term goals can really help keep you focussed. Keep up the good work and communication. Tombla

| I met my weight goal and entered a new one, but the blue line on the metrics graph does not show my new weight goal. What should I do to get the goal line back on the metris graph? Thanks

Thanks for the report - this has been fixed. Look for an all new chart and weight loss goal coming soon (hopefully tomorrow)!

Thanks, i really like this site. Its really helpful for checking my weight ect and gets me motivated. (:
Although i think it would be a good idea if you mabye listed different ways people could exercise on your webiste. Mabye not just that but also ways to help loose weight/ gain weight, i think this might help motivate people. But this could be something that people can fit into their lifestyle without going out of their way to feel the need to exercise and loose weight and get fit but to enjoy it and have fun.
thanks again. xx
