Optional mini challenge for the week: No excuses this week!

Remember, we are doing a running total of percentage lost. Use your starting weight when you joined this challenge, and subtract this week’s weigh-in. If you’ve lost weight since last week, your percentage this week will be bigger compared to what you posted last week.

Formula for figuring combined weekly %
1. starting weight when you join challenge – this week’s weight
2. divide weight lost by starting weight
3. Mutliply by 100

Anyone is welcome to join the challenge at any time. To join, set your weight loss goal for Memorial Day and post what percentage you’re working towards losing.

Here’s the formula for figuring your goal %:
1. current weight this week – Memorial Day goal weight
2. divide weight lost by current weight this week
3. multiply by 100

I know that some of us weigh multiple times a week. Please post just one result for the weekly results list. But, feel free to post encouragement to others as many times as you want, tell us about your progress, or little victories.

Let's have fun!

    Start Week Weight: 79.4kg
    This Week Weight: 73.7kg
    Total Percentage Lost: 7.16% (Change: +0.31%)
    Goal Percentage Lost: 8.32%

    Just like always: My current percentage is based on unrounded values and is accurate. If you use the rounded values (from above) you get a slightly different number. Also, my percentage in change is change from last weeks weight, not last week's percentage.


    This is going to be close. I have been bouncing around my goal weight (for this challenge). Despite a couple high days this week making it look like a stall.

    I started this challenge with a goal in mind.
    Since about 4 weeks ago, my motivation has slipped A LOT and I'm up. I normally post on Wednesdays, but I'm sure it won't make a huge difference.
    Currently up (only) 2.27%.
    Considering what I've been eating, this isn't all that bad. Unfortunately, I probably won't be making it back to 0% Monday.

    I already can tell that I am going to be short on my goal. I will be close. But, I would need the next two days to both be new scale lows to bring my average down enough. I'll still make sure to put in my final numbers. And, I do stand to have lost about 6.2 kg while doing this. That's 13.6 pounds... which is a good amount for 12 weeks.

    Didn't get a chance to post my check-in from last Friday. My new total is 10.39%, which puts me into the low end of my goal range for this challenge. Yay!
