Yay! I have now officially lost more than ten percent of my starting weight - and that in just over two months. This is simply great, and although I still have long to go, I really, really feel motivated to continue.

Weight is in kg, and the straight line is a linear interpolation model based on the last week (I'm a mathematician, and so I couldn't help myself...).
It is good to see someone providing such thoughts about daily weighings.
Good luck with the rest of it.

I like your graph, but the line doesn't look right to me. My intuition says it should be higher on the graph. I guess I just lack the math skills.

This could be a wonderful positive spin on it. Let's see, if you weigh 400 and lose 10%, 40lbs, that seems like a drop in the bucket. If you're 200 and you lose 20 lbs, that seems like a hugh improvement. Anything that motivates is a good thing.

That is very cool. Both the graph and the fact that you've lost 10%. Stefan, you should post this link again the next time a newbie is fretting over the ups and downs of daily weighings!

I like your graph, but the line doesn't look right to me. My intuition says it should be higher on the graph.
Well, as it is only based on the weighings for the last week, it is still sensitive to heavy fluctuations - I could have extended the period to make something a bit more stable, but that would invalidate it's use as a marker of current trends (and I could have shortened the period, but that would make it even more sensitive).

Every morning I put a new dot on a line and connect it to the last one. I don't have Excel or a similar program, have no need for it but did find a neat little freebie that you can make your own graph paper with so I created one with a 7 x 5 grid and printed it out.
