Well, since I have been on TSP for 6 months and 2 weeks, it kind of makes it easy.
Starting weight: 243#
Goal: ~~135#
Projected weight reduction: ~~108#
First two weeks' weight reduction: 11# == 10% of weight reduction
Remaining 6-months' weight reduction: 18# == 16.67% of weight reduction
Average weight reduction for the 6 months: 3# == 2.77% of weight reduction
Total amount of weight reduced: 29# == 11.9% of beginning body weight
The problem with this is that the lion's share happened in the first few months. Since then my progress has slowed a lot. And I just broke a 7-weeks' stall with a 1-pound reduction today.
What I find interesting is that I am pretty much on track for the studies. Most of them say that you will lose 10% of your body weight in the first 6 months. I certainly did that and a little bit more. Now let's see how the next 6 months go.
And the most important thing to me is that I am still on the program. Every other "diet" I have tried has ended within a few months. This one is definitely a way of life for me. No more dieting!
One more pound and I can join the 30-down club! (Just had to throw that in there.
