I tried doing a search but no luck, is there a free weight tracker online, the kind that "predicts" where you will be if you lose 1lb per week for example? I need a bit of incentive to keep me on the healthy eating track, I have lost 6lb in 4 weeks but its getting less and less each week (only half lb loss this week)0
