One board. The pounds you lost.
Biggest Loser ranks members on the body weight they lost over the last 30 days or the last 365 days, most pounds first. Each member is measured from their weigh-in at the start of the window to their latest, so the board is about the number on the scale and nothing else.
Two windows, one number.
The board has a Last 30 days table and a Last 365 days table. Both rank the same figure, pounds of body weight lost, so a member who lost 20 lb in a month sits beside everyone else who lost 20 lb in that month. Percentage of bodyweight is only the tie-breaker below; it is never the score.
Last 30 days
Pounds lost from the weigh-in at the start of the last 30 days to the latest weigh-in.
Last 365 days
The same measure over the last year.
Equal pounds
When two members lost the same pounds, the one who lost the larger share of their bodyweight ranks higher.
Worked example for illustration. It is not a claim about typical or expected results.
How the ranking is calculated.
Starting weight for the window
Your starting weight is your last weigh-in on or before the first day of the window, or your first weigh-in inside it.
Latest weigh-in
Your position is your most recent approved weigh-in in the window.
Pounds lost
Starting weight minus latest weight, in pounds. Only members who lost weight are ranked, most pounds first.
Tie-breaker
Members with the same pounds lost are ordered by the larger percentage of their starting bodyweight.
Fair play and data quality.
Consistent units and intervals
Log entries in the same units at realistic intervals. Erratic spacing makes a trend line meaningless and can hold up a ranking.
Outliers get reviewed
Check-ins well outside a plausible range may be flagged for review before they affect a position.
Context helps
Pairing a significant change with feed context makes it easier for everyone to read a jump correctly.
Body fat, BMI and BMR figures in the app are fitness estimates, not medical measurements, and this board is a tracking tool rather than a health programme. Talk to a qualified professional about anything medical, and set your own targets with one.
Your baseline starts with one check-in.
