8.11% since 1/1/13.

Beat biggest loser totals. Yay, me!

I don't have a ton to lose, but I have to work a lot harder for it. Gained .5 inches of muscle in my quads, arms, and legs, lost 2" in my stomach area. SLOW GOING--I'll celebrate any good stat at all.

Check your progress and report so we can all cheer for you, too: http://www.fitwatch.com/qkcalc/calculate-weight-loss-percentage.html

    That's awesome! Slow going is okay, they say slow and steady wins the race!

    Since 12/31 (not the 1st but I'm sure I didn't lose too much more than that in a day) I have lost 9.07%. I was shocked when that came up, was not expecting that to be so much! Since the start of it all I have lost 14.18% of my total body weight!

    8.48% since January 1st. I knew I was getting close to 10% because I just calculated it.

    I am less than 5 pounds away from my first 10%. (I'm hoping to make that by the time I see my nutritionist and my doctor in the first couple of weeks of Apirl.
