Benefits of Tracking in Kilograms
Precise Measurement
Kilograms provide a more precise measurement than pounds, with clear decimal increments that make tracking small changes easier.
International Standard
The metric system is used by most countries worldwide, making it easier to compare and share your progress with others globally.
Easy Calculations
Calculating percentages and other metrics is simpler with the decimal-based metric system compared to imperial measurements.
Health Professional Standard
Most healthcare providers and nutritionists use kilograms, making it easier to discuss your progress with medical professionals.
Understanding Your Weight Loss in Kilograms
How to Calculate Kilograms Lost
Calculating how many kilograms you've lost is simple: subtract your current weight from your starting weight. This gives you the total weight loss in kilograms.
Example: If you started at 95 kg and now weigh 85 kg, you've lost 10 kg (95 - 85 = 10).
It's also helpful to calculate your weight loss percentage, which shows your progress relative to your starting weight:
Weight Loss % = (Kilograms Lost / Starting Weight) × 100
Using the example above: (10 / 95) × 100 = 10.5% weight loss.
Understanding Weight Loss Milestones
Breaking your weight loss journey into milestones can help maintain motivation. Here are common kilogram-based milestones and their significance:
5 kg Lost
Noticeable change in how clothes fit and often the first visible difference in appearance
10 kg Lost
Significant health benefits including reduced blood pressure and improved cholesterol levels
15 kg Lost
Major reduction in risk for obesity-related diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease
20+ kg Lost
Transformational change that significantly improves mobility, energy levels, and overall quality of life
Converting Between Kilograms and Pounds
If you need to convert between kilograms and pounds, use these simple formulas:
Kilograms to Pounds
Pounds = Kilograms × 2.20462
Example: 10 kg = 22.05 lbs
Pounds to Kilograms
Kilograms = Pounds ÷ 2.20462
Example: 20 lbs = 9.07 kg
Remember: While it's helpful to understand both systems, consistency in tracking is more important than the specific unit of measurement. Choose one system and stick with it for accurate progress tracking.
