How to calculate your weight loss percentage

I thought this might be a helpful tool to keep you motivated. I plan to keep track of my weight loss percentage each week in a spreadsheet. To figure out your percentage you have to know two things, your initial weight (IW) and your actual weight (AW). Here's the math for you.

IW - AW / IW * 100 = weight loss percentage

Here's my results after one day

199 - 198 / 199 *100 = .502 %

Pretty simple. Hope this helps some. Keep motivated!!
