What % have you lost?

ukredhead19

Okay, so I'm always trying to find ways that make me feel even more encouraged about my weight loss, and the impending biggest loser challenge in my office got me thinking about my % of body weight lost.

So since I restarted MFP on 1/3/11:

...i've lost 5% of my total body weight! (calculate by taking = amount lost so far / start weight)

and i've lost ~ 15% of my goal weight loss!!! (calculate by taking = amount lost so far / total weight you need to lose)

What are your %'s???? I bet it will excite you to see!:happy:

I've lost 14.5% of my starting total weight (184.6 lbs) and i have lost 52% of my goal weight loss (134 lbs or 50 lbs total lost)! Oh, I do like these numbers (I'm an engineer!)

Wow - that's crazy!!! That's in less than 1 month!!

I've been on here a long, long time, but this round of weight loss started for me in July (sometime between May and June was my highest, but I started pushing it in July)....

Since starting in July 2010: My % of body weight lost is 18% and my % to goal is 44.5%.
In 2011, I've lost 2.3% of body weight and my % to goal is 7.8%.

P.S. I'm a business analyst - so I love this kind of stuff....

VickiMitkins

I have lost 7.5% of body weight and 25% of goal. I have been keeping track of the goal %, but not total weight %. Maybe because is is the smallest number.

jchapman1957

Is this even correct?
I have lost 3lbs/ 169lbs started equals .0177% and the other is 3/30 equals .1%
Yes thats POINT 0177% and POINT 1%e)

sarah44254

5%! woop woop I didn't realize it was that much, how great!

started at 167.4
now at 158.8

so 8.6/167.5 = .05137 = 5%!

3 / 169 = 0.0177 yes, but to convert a decimal into a fraction you must multiply by 100 soooo your % lost is not .1%
it's 1.7% :drinker: Keep at it!

abyt42
