    Starting Weight – (Sunday 1st April)
    Goal Weight Loss –
    Week 1 –xxx lbs. and xx % lost (Monday 9th April)
    Week 2 - xxx lbs. and xx % lost (Monday 16th April)
    Week 3 - xxx lbs. and xx % lost (Monday 23rd April)
    Week 4 - xxx lbs. and xx % lost (Monday 30th April)

    Total Lost – xxx lbs. (Monday 30th April)
    Total % Lost – xx % (Monday 30th April)

    ##CALCULATIONS##

    1. YOUR 4% goal is;
    (April starting weight) divided by 100 multiplied by 4 = goal weight loss
    e.g. SW 189lbs
    189lbs x 0.04 = 7.6lbs weight loss goal

    2. For the final weigh-in, to calculate how much you ACTUALLY lost is;
    (Total weight loss) multiplied by 100 then divided by (April starting weight) = % lost
    e.g. Weight loss = 9lbs
    9lbs/189 x 100 = 4.8% off starting weight

    I'm in!

    SW: 161.8
    Goal for April: 4 % = 6.5 pounds

    I believe you post your starting weight on the 29th and then each week so the 9th etc.

    That said I'm in, first challenge and I look forward to kicking it's butt!
