Week #3: 298.6 lbs (34.2%)

Below 300!!! I'm hoping this trend keeps up! Neither of the predictive models is working very well, so I'm creating my own! It makes sense that calories burned per day is proportional to weight (one could argue that it's linear, but we'll go with proportional for now). Under this assumption, the equation is:

dw/dt = 1706 – cw(t).

Solving the equation, and using the data thus far to solve for c, we find that c = 15.4767. This gives the yellow line in the graph below. The equation predicts I'll lose 5.6 lbs this coming week, so we'll see how close that is!
