An Automated slap, say what now?

Um... Dear Weight Watchers your automated online system gave me waggled finger this morning, a correctional slap if you will. Ya see I've lost "too much" weight this week, so the system gave a paragraph long lecture and predicted doom and gloom for my weight loss future... Very supportive, or not. Oh what is "too much" weight you ask... anything over 2lbs a week... Um, ok.. I lost 4lbs this week, did I skimp on food? No! I just got a lot of exercise. We walk, a lot. We walked Saturday - Tuesday in the evenings  (the weather has been awesome for walking, crisp and cold) for at least 45min. and this week I hit the weights and then split about a 1/2 cord of wood with my trusty 8lb splitter. In other words I worked my ass off...

Look, I know the system is built to look out for me, but generating automated nasty grams based on very general statistics that have little or nothing to do with me is just irritating.. So um.. bite me. I'll keep on doing the program because it works. But if you think I'm gonna put stock in an automatically created warning that takes zero facts into account, well than you don't know me at all.. But then, thats the point now isn't it?
