Here's a big chunk of my loss, in pounds, for 5'5" F, when I was age 59-60. (I lost too fast for my size in there for a while: Don't do that. It's a bad plan, not healthy.) In real life, I started at 183 in April 2015, but I can't show the whole thing without losing the individual daily weights (at the ends of the vertical lines). The heavier solid horizontal/down connected line is the calculated statistical trend.



Here is a long sweep of loss to maintenance, which does show the starting weight. I consider everything after that steep downhill to be maintenance, though it's obviously not a level horizontal line. I was overweight to obese for around 3 decades previous to that big loss, and the ups and downs in maintenance are all within a healthy weight range for me (lower 20s BMI), all in the same jeans size. I'm calling it maintenance even though I've drifted up (mostly unintentionally) then drifted down again (intentionally). Somewhere early on, I switched my goal from 120 to 125 - you can see that.



I'd show a chart showing the whole span from start up to today, but Libra has had several updates recently, and the new format loses the weight labels on the left side when I zoom out, which isn't helpful. I hope they'll fix it - fixes are coming out near daily since the big change. There've been more of those mild ups and downs within the healthy range, and I weighed 128 pounds this morning.

P.S. Libra is an Android app. For Apple/iOS, there's Happy Scale. Trendweight is another, for which you need a free Fitbit account (but you don't need a Fitbit device - at least last I knew). Weightgrapher on the web is another one I've seen people mention.

I might have to look into Libra - I've found the data in the Renpho app useful. Will Libra pull data from Renpho or MFP, do you know? Answers so far seem to be somewhat ambiguous...

This shows an average rate loss rate of .2088 lb/day or 1.46 lb per week. Am now shooting for 155 lb followed by maintenance at 155 lb.

This is my weight loss for this year following a reverse diet for the first 6 months, into a cut for 4 months and now back into another reverse diet for the last 1.5-2 months. Dropped 28kgs in total and haven't had much weight & fat gain since reverse dieting back up the 2nd time. Currently sitting at 2600 calories, weighing in at around 59kgs.

Don’t know if I have done this right or not. I’m a data freak. Love charts, graphs, analysis. I’m going to look into libra for sure!

Thanks to all for showing these graphs showing inspiring progress.

I am not trying to lose weight but trying to lose weight and gain muscle at the same time. I started weightlifting about a month ago and increased my protein intake to about 140-162g per day. Also, I am using creatine to boost my ATP. My maintenance calories are 2545, but my diet is set at my BMR of 1884 calories per day. LOL, I gained weight but lost 3.5 in on my waist; now at 44.5in. I am using the bodybuilder diet for cutting. I was 228 lbs in June, but I didn't count that weight because I had heart issues and took diuretics, and dropped 15 lbs in two weeks from urine from water retention. I just put my weight on the day I start at the gym to be fair and more accurate.

Here's me from January 6th 2022 to today, down 75 lbs. I've been on a bit of a slowdown this month but I'm happy overall with my progress.

EDIT: wanted to add a bit of context to the chart. Except this week I've weighed myself every morning, increases and decreases. Not sure I'd recommend that to anyone but it does make it interesting to go back and look at all the little blips upward and remind myself when my weight fluctuates that it's normal. The overall trend is all that matters.

I have been weight lifting for 2 months and just started ADF this week. Finally, the scale is moving, not just the weight but the body fat is going down as well.

10 months of dieting followed by 6 months of a diet break to reverse to maintenance. Just now starting a deficit again to lean out a bit more.
