Amazing Weight Loss Journey of Tina
How many pounds has Tina lost in total?
After dieting for 13 weeks, Tina lost 3 pounds on the first week, gained back 1 pound on the second week, and then consistently lost 2 pounds on each remaining week. So, how many pounds has Tina lost in all?
Tina's Weight Loss Calculation
Initially, Tina weighed 110 pounds. After losing 3 pounds on the first week, she weighed 107 pounds. However, she gained back 1 pound on the second week, bringing her weight back up to 108 pounds.
With 11 weeks remaining and losing 2 pounds per week, Tina's weight decreased to 86 pounds by the end of 13 weeks.
Now, let's calculate the total weight loss: Starting weight (110 pounds) - End weight (86 pounds) = 24 pounds.
Therefore, Tina has lost a total of 24 pounds on her weight loss journey.
**Note: The starting weight was randomly chosen, and the answer remains the same regardless of the initial weight.
