I've been interested in losing weight and gaining muscle here at traineo since late 2007. Its not until mid 2008 that i've actually started my training routine 5 days a week. Trying to get to under 19% body fat.

When you log your workouts theres a dotted line going through, does this mean the recommended calories burnt per day kinda thing?

Words to live by: "Now's the time to grab the steering wheel of your life. Delve deep within yourself and take responsibility for your health and behavior. Ask yourself hard questions and face the truth of what needs to be done. Weight loss is not always easy or fair but you are the only one that can lose weight for you. Take a turn for the better!"
Goals:
1) Lose ~45 pounds
2) Work out at least 6 days a week
3) Eat healthier consistently
I will reward myself at the following weights: 240, 235, 230, 225, 220, 215, 205, 200, 195, 190
I will reassess my goals after I have met the above goals.

It shows an average trend if I'm not mistaken.

average trend means it is halfway between the lowest amount of calories you burned one day and highest amount of calories you burned another day. it has nothing to do with what you are supposed to burn in a day. it is your own trend that you are setting.

it wont always be. some days it will some days it wont. you need to work up to a high number. "high" is relative plus the calorie number isnt accurate anyway. if you are doing 30 minutes it wont be that high. also, you should be doing this not just for a calorie burn. if you are doing it just for a calorie burn it is going to be hard to maintain it for a lifestyle.
