Percentage lost:
To find your percentage
Take your starting weight - ending weight = Pounds lost
Then divide pounds lost/ starting weight and get the percentage lost __________________

And to make it an extra feel good bonus for yourself for the month - for every pound that you lose this month -donate 1 can of food to your local food bank... (and when you pick up that bag of cans - note how heavy it is

Did I do that right? I love the challenges! I think this whole site is such a great idea. My husband supports me, but when weight loss support is coming from a 180 lbs guy with huge muscles it's hard for me to not take it as condescending. This is such a great way to keep track and make it fun! I'm very excited to have found such a great site!!!
