Formula for calculating weight loss percentage:
Initial weight minus current weight, divided by initial weight multiplied by 100 equals percentage.
((IW-CW)/IW) * 100= weight loss percentage
example:
Initial start weight: 175 pounds
Week 1 weigh in weight:170 pounds
Current (week 2 weigh in) weight: 168
Weekly percentage lost:
170 - 168= 2
2 / 170= 0.011764
0.0117647 x 100= 1.1764%
round up to 1.18
-1.18% weekly percentage lost
Total percentage lost:
175 - 168= 7
7 / 175 = 0.04
4 x 100= 4%
-4% total percentage lost

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY, LADIES!!!
I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekend. Yesterday we enjoyed a fun day at the beach (our first this season). I got my workout in, by dodging & ducking the waves for 1-1/2 hours with the kids. I even body surfed on a boogie board. It was tons of fun. Today I'm really tired and a bit sunburned, but happy to report that I'm down again - at least I'm going in the right direction.

Okay MAITE!!! You! YOU!!
So, I am not sure who to thank this week for my gain.
Should it be Sarah A for that wonderful peanutbutter pie she brought over last night?
Should it be Zoopa's for serving unlimited food while I am starving?
OR I could chalk it up to PMS and call it good.
Why would I ever blame myself? Seriously... not my problem right? :)
Weekly%: +0.6
Total%: -0.7
Ooh! Congratulations, Maite!
Well, I've ramped up the exercise, but now I've REALLY got to do a number on my unhealthy eating and constant grazing. Exercise and Eating Habits. I guess you really can't do one without the other.
But the clothes are fitting just a bit better than they were. I'll be happy when the Period Fairy takes her bloaty-wand away, though, that's for sure. At least I avoided the chocolate binge this week.
Weekly: -.6
Total: -1.6
So I'm back to the initial loss from the first week. NOW it's time to kick into high gear.
Five weeks to fabulous.
Weekly=1.5%
Total=2.4%
I ate well this week, took an hour walk one day, and did some major yard work--- now I'm sore. I stalked up on lots of healthy food and planned out a week's dinner menu....this blog has helped me keep going.
Weekly -.27%
Total -2.13%
The sad part is I was down 3.74% mid week, then a bbq with Grandma and stomach issues canceled the loss.
Next week, right?
Ugh-I'm up this week. I am blaming it on hormones and stress. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!
Week% +1.0

I went to California and ate a lot of In N Out and ice cream. Time to go back to the gym!!
Hi Jessica:
I am soooooooo jealous, I'm from California and In n Out is one of my favorite places to eat at and I MISS IT SOOOOOOOO MUCH. Thats one of the 1st places we go to when we're up there.
Okay, I am at a standstill. I ate obviously more than I needed, but still riding my bike to work a couple of days/week. I will work to eat less and eat better once again.
For the week - 0%
For the contest - 0.6%
Well I don't seem to be losing anything on this contest, however i weighed in today at weight watcher and I've lost 2 1/2 lbs!!. I didn't want to weigh in, and have been feeling like I'm wasting my money, but my w.w. leader said I'm actually losing at just the right amount and speed. I am frustrated that I haven't lost my 10 percent yet, but she told me that most people take between 16-24 weeks to lose if they are doing it correctly, and not crash dieting. Most people lose quickly in the beginning, and then their bodies slow down, or plateu. i feel much better after going to my meeting, and now maybe I'll actually show a loss on this competition next week. kellyh
