The end is here! :) Monday morning everyone will need to weigh in and report their percentage of weight lost along with points for the previous week. The sooner I get all the information, the sooner I can announce the winners.
For anyone that isn't sure about how to calculate the percentage, here is what you will need to do.
1. Calculate how many lbs you lost.
2. Take the lbs you lost and divide them by your starting weight. Then just move the decimal 2 spaces to the right to give your percentage of weight lost.
Here's an example:
Starting weight: 205
Lbs lost: 22
22 lbs divided by 205 lbs = .1073 or 10.73%
--------------------
Another example:
Starting weight: 187.5
Lbs lost: 28
28 lbs divided by 187.5 lbs = .1493 or 14.93%
------------------------
If you are unsure about calculating your percentage, let me know, I would be glad to help.
I want to congratulate everyone that participated in this challenge. So many of you put your heart and soul into it and it's paid off. Regardless of who actually wins, we should all feel good about making progress and doing things that will help us to be healthier. :)
Don't forget to weigh in tomorrow morning!

How many points do you get for each percent of weight loss?
ReplyDelete10 points for each percentage pt. So, 10% weight loss would be 100 points.
