How to unlock the 50 Stamps achievement in Body and Brain Connection - Definitive Guide
If in stead of screwing with the date settings on your xbox, you actually want to play this for 50 days like I did, here is something that you may be happy to know.
Although the in-game calendar only appears to track date-stamps on the calendar for the last 3-4 months, you do not need to play the full 50 days during a 90-120 day period.
Personally, I set this game aside for the better part of a year, because I was getting really frustrated with a couple of the exercises. At that point, I had (according to http://360voice.gamerdna.com/) 43 days played.
As I could no longer view them in the in-game calendar, I was a little worried when I started the game back up a few months ago that my 43 days played were lost and that I would need to start the 50 days over (which I would likely never do). Fortunately, this isn`t the case, and the game does still `know` that you played all of those other days previously.
As indicated in the other solutions, all you need to do for the game to keep track of your days played is to get a date stamped in your calendar; this is done after completing either the Daily Challenge or simply just doing 1 exercise, which is much quicker.

Thanks. This is what I wanted to know. I will be working towards individual exercises each day, rather than doing the daily challenge.

Came back after 6.5 years and only needed ~6 to finish my 50. Yay!

I was able to get one stamp every 3 minutes. Here is what i did:
1) Load the game (this takes 1 of the 3 minutes)
2) Select brainage test
*** EDIT - You may not have to select brainage test. Completing an activity in custom games also gives you a stamp so it would stand to reason this is sufficient. This should save about 20 seconds. I will update once I or someone else has confirmed. ***
3) When you see the loading screen for the first brainage test, PAUSE using the hand gesture. Select QUIT. The activity counts as completed.
4) Repeat step 3 for the other 2 tests.
5) Stamp your calendar. You will get a brain age of 80. Once the lightbulb in the top left corner disappears, you can dashboard out.
6) Change the date (as per Wyldcat34's solution)
7) Go back to step 1)
A few notes:
1) I installed the game to the HD but i'm not sure if it made a different. It seemed faster but that could have been a placebo effect
2) If you PAUSE from the brainage main screen, the option to QUIT will be replaced by an option to SIGN IN.
3) If you select BACK -> QUIT TEST from the brainage main screen, you will quit the test and you will not get a stamp
4) I recommend leaving this achievement until the end as you will accumulate stamps through normal gameplay. And who knows, you might enjoy the game and want to do it legitimately.

Slightly quicker method ive found was to change the time to 23:56 quickly quit the brain test and then wait till 0:00 and do another. that way you get two stamps for the loading time of one :) (just remember to put the day ahead two after)

Custom exersises do work, but you can't quit out, you must complete it to get the stamp.

As the descriptiopn says, this achievement is for playing for 50 days in total. All that needs to be done is the official Brainage test on 50 days and this will pop.
Exploit method:
1. Like Biggest loser, you can remove your 360 from the network (no xbox live connection) and set the date manually to cheat this.
2. Load and do the brainage test.
3. Once completed go back to the dash, change the date to one day in advance and save.
4. Load and do the brainage test again, rinse and repeat another 48 times.
5. Achievement pop!
