Is body fat % and weight loss linear? I started tracking by body fat % after I started tracking my weight loss. If I map our all of the BF% and Weight loss data points can I back calculate what my body fat % was when I started or is not not linear and I would need a sliding scale type calculation.

    Weight loss isn't linear. Continual loss of body fat keeps lowering the percentage though (unless one is losing a lot of lean mass too).
