I've just realised I've lost 23.3%

(And I'm now just over 75% of the person I was 9 months ago)

You?

    What is the math equation to figure that out? I am curious about mine.

    To get the percentage of your weight lost its weight lost divided by starting weight then multiply by 100

    Current weight divided by starting weight multiplied by. 100 gives you the percentage of the person you once were

    Weight lost ÷ start weight × 100

    5.7% so far (counting the 7ish pounds if lost before finding MFP)
    48.1% by the time I reach my goal

    Now the numbers geek in me wants to revise my goal so it's an even 50%. :)

    You?

    I'm down 22%, aiming for 23%. 3 pounds to go! Though if I could gain 3 lbs of muscle and lose 3 pounds of fat, would prefer to stay at 22% :)
