This calculator uses a simple approach: it compares your current weight and target weight, then divides the difference by your planned weekly change. You get an estimated number of weeks, a week by week plan table, charts for a quick visual, and tools to compare scenarios or export a PDF report.
Type your current weight and choose a unit (kg or lbs).
Type your goal weight using the same unit.
Enter your planned weekly weight change as a positive number.
Press Calculate to see the timeline, a weekly plan table, charts, and a PDF export layout. Save scenarios to compare different plans.
