How does the weight goal calculator work?

It divides the difference between current weight and target weight by the selected weekly pace to estimate weeks to goal and a target date.

What is a realistic weekly weight change?

Many people use a moderate pace such as about 0.25 to 1 kg per week or about 0.5 to 2 lb per week, depending on health status and goals.

Can this calculator help with weight gain?

Yes. If your target weight is higher than your current weight, it estimates a weight gain timeline using the same weekly pace method.

How the Goal Timeline Works

ShedBody subtracts your target weight from your current weight, then divides the change by your selected weekly pace. The result is a practical week-by-week timeline and estimated target date.

Goal	Pace Focus	Next Step
Fat loss	Moderate weekly decrease	Use a calorie deficit and strength training.
Weight gain	Controlled weekly increase	Use a calorie surplus and progressive training.
Maintenance	Stable body weight	Track habits, measurements, and performance.
