Weight Loss Inches Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Weight Loss Inches (WLI) is:

\[ \text{WLI} = \text{OS} - \text{FS} \]

Where:

\( \text{WLI} \) is the weight loss inches
\( \text{OS} \) is the original size of the body part (inches)
\( \text{FS} \) is the final size of the body part (inches)

What are Weight Loss Inches?

Weight loss inches are defined as the sum total of all of the inches lost on body parts due to the effect of losing weight. This is typically measured on more than one body part and then summed together. The most common areas for measurement are the chest, waist, neck, and thigh.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Original Size (OS) = 40 inches
Final Size (FS) = 35 inches

Using the formula to calculate the Weight Loss Inches:

\[ \text{WLI} = 40 \text{ inches} - 35 \text{ inches} = 5 \text{ inches} \]

The Weight Loss Inches (WLI) is 5 inches.
