Calculate Your Progress

How It Works

Formula:

((Starting − Current) ÷ Starting) × 100

This shows the percentage of weight lost compared to your starting weight.

Examples

Example 1:

Starting: 200 lbs | Current: 180 lbs

(200 − 180) ÷ 200 = 0.1 × 100 = 10%

Example 2:

Starting: 150 kg | Current: 135 kg

(150 − 135) ÷ 150 × 100 = 10%

Example 3:

Starting: 100 | Current: 100

No weight loss: 0%
