Common questions

How do I calculate weight loss percentage?

Divide the amount lost by your starting weight, then multiply by 100. For example, losing 5kg from a 100kg starting weight is a 5% loss.

Why use percentage instead of kilograms or pounds?

Percentage loss adjusts for starting bodyweight, making it a more meaningful way to compare progress or set a sustainable target rate.

What is a realistic weekly percentage loss?

Typical sustainable ranges fall between 0.25% and 1% of bodyweight per week, depending on your goal and how aggressive you want to be.
