The calculation changes your modeled weight by the chosen percentage each week. Real progress varies; this is not a predicted date or a personal calorie target.
This general adult estimate does not fit pregnancy, growth, illness or eating-disorder recovery. Understanding weight goals.
The pace you choose is a percentage of the weight at each week of the calculation.
At a selected pace of 0.5%, the calculation is 80 × 0.005 = 0.4 kg.
