    212-160 = 52
    52/212 = 0.245
    0.2452x100 = 24.5%

    Current Loss:
    212-209 = 3
    3/212 = 0.014
    0.014 x 100 = 1.4%

    189 - 139 = 50
    50 / 198 = 0.252
    0.252 * 100 = 25%

    My number is 36%, and maths is not my thing so that's just taken me 20 minutes to get my head round!

    Good luck everyone :-)

    I am starting at 170lb and want t be down to at least 140lb. I had just started today and I am actually enjoying this. I work out for 15 minutes twice a day and eat my own special diet. I am also on my feet for 5-7 hours everyday due to my job. I hope to get to my goal by March or April.
    30lbs by March/April is pretty extreme.

    Well, we are here to help one to another, i also think 30 lbs in 3 months is too extreme, and it can be unhealthy if you force yourself to lose weight that fast... take care!

    My overall #s
    277-160=117
    117/277=42.2
    100*42.2=42.2%

    But in 2014, my goal is 21.1%, or half that amount/1 lb a week.

    Hello everyone. I was wondering how many of you would be in for a little challenge for the year. We will do percentages to make it fair. The formula for those of you who don't know how to figure out the percentage of weight loss is very simple

    starting weight minus your current weight which will give you how many pounds you have lost. Then take that number and divide it by your starting weight and you will get a decimal number. Multiply that number by 100 and there you have it. Thats how much percentage of your weight loss you have loss

    So im currently 238 and my goal is 150. So that's 88 pounds I Need to lose. Take 88 and divide by the starting weight and I get 0.369. Multiply that by 100 and I need to lose 37%

    We can do weekly check ins and see how everyone is doing. Whose in for the challenge of 2014? Weigh in days will be Friday's. And you can let everyone know what percentage you loss out of how much you need to. You can post the formula with your weight if you want but you do not have to. Starting out everyone needs to post what the percentage that they need to lose total.

    Let's shed the pounds everyone :)

    219-190= 29
    29/219= 0.13
    100*0.13= 13%

    By the end of this year I hope to lose an extra 20-30lbs ^_^ xxx

    It will be about 30lbs because I should. At my age now, it's more about conserving my joints and connective tissue and the extra 30lbs will relieve a lot of impact on them. At least I'll be ripped all the time.:laugh:

    I am really hoping to reach my goal this year. I got almost 50 pounds off last year and didnt even try for half of the year. This year so far I have lost almost 10 pounds :) so I am off to a good start. I really just want to be at goal by my 35th birthday which is March 1, 2015!! It would be nice to be under 215 by my 34th birthday, but we will see!!!!
