1. What is the 10kg Weight Loss Calculator?

This calculator estimates the time required to lose 10kg based on your current weekly weight loss rate. It helps set realistic expectations for your weight loss journey.

The calculator uses the simple equation:

Where:

• \( WeeklyLoss_{kg} \) — Your current weight loss rate in kilograms per week
