Following the red line is misleading because its fluctuations don’t give a long-term
perspective of the diet. In Figure 23, there are various ups, which are not relevant as the
trend shows that the weight is clearly heading down.
5.3 Month view
The Month view shows a snapshot of your diet for a whole month (see Figure 24). Tap
the Month view icon in the menu bar to access this view. Each day is shown as
follows:
• If you entered a weight for that day, it is shown in black. Otherwise, the target
weight (as calculated based on your diet goal) is shown in blue. The weight is
shown in gray for days outside the current month.
• If the weight in within 5% of the target weight, a Congratulations smiley is
shown. This means that you are on track with the target weight.
• If the weight in within 10% of the target weight, a Happy smiley is shown on a
yellow background. This means that your weight is not where it should be, but
that’s usually not a problem, because fluctuations are normal and expected.
• If the weight is not within 10% of the target weight, then a Watch out! smiley
is shown on a red background. This signals that your weight is not in line with the
goals. Occasional “red days” (as shown in Figure 24) are normal, because they
show weight fluctuations. However, if the calendar is mostly filled up with yellow
or red days, then your weight is no longer on track with your goals.
Figure 24: The Month view shows your weight and whether it is on track or not with your goals.
In this snapshot, the diet is being very well followed up.
