Progress & charts
Weight trend, loss per week, peers, clinical-trial overlay and shareable images.
The Progress page is your visual story over time. Open Progress in the sidebar. The Progress section in the sidebar also holds everything else that reads your progress: progress photos, weekly reports, predictions, stall detection, victories and streaks, muscle guardian and maintenance.
What you’ll see
- Weight over time with your goal line and shots overlaid.
- Weight loss: how much you lost or gained in each period, rather than what you weighed.
- Blood pressure on its own chart (once you’ve logged readings).
- Peers: how much of your starting weight you’ve lost, as a percentage, against other anonymised members who began at a similar weight. Using percent (not pounds) puts everyone on the same scale, and the similar-starting-weight band keeps it a fair like-for-like comparison.
- Clinical-trial overlay: your curve against published trial averages for your medication, plus a plain-English read of where your dose puts you.
Zooming and moving around the weight chart
The range tabs pick a window; then you can zoom in and move around inside it, like a map.
- On a phone or tablet: pinch two fingers to zoom and drag with two fingers to move along the timeline: both at once, wherever your fingers are. One finger still scrolls the page, so the chart never hijacks your scrolling as you pass it.
- On a computer: scroll over the chart to zoom in toward the pointer, drag to move along the timeline, and double-click to snap back to the full view.
- The −, + and Reset buttons under the chart do the same thing and work identically everywhere.
- As you zoom in, the up-and-down scale re-fits to the weigh-ins on screen, so a stretch that looked flat over a year opens up into its real day-to-day movement.
Turning labels on and off
Two toggles under the chart control what’s written on it, and both keep whatever you’ve zoomed into:
- Shot doses: the coloured pills marking where each dose changed. They stay the same size however far you zoom, and only the doses in view are labelled, plus one at the left edge showing which dose the window opens on.
- Data labels: the exact weight beside each weigh-in. Off by default (across a whole year that would be a wall of numbers); flip it on once you’ve zoomed into a stretch you want the figures for. When points are dense it thins itself out and fills back in as you zoom closer.
The weight-loss chart
The weight chart answers “what do I weigh”. The Weight loss chart answers “what did this week actually do”: one bar per period, so you can see that you gained a pound one week and lost 2.3 the next.
- Bars go up in green when you lost weight, and down in red when you gained: so progress climbs.
- Switch between Daily, Weekly and Monthly bars, and narrow the window with the range tabs. Weeks run Monday to Sunday.
- Each bar is measured from the end of the period before it, so nothing falls between the cracks and the bars add up to your total change.
- Hover a bar to see the exact amount and which weigh-in it was measured from.
A period only gets a bar if you weighed in during it. If you skip a stretch, the next bar carries all the change since your last weigh-in and says so when you hover it, so a long gap can’t masquerade as one dramatic week.
Sharing a progress image
Both charts have their own Share button in the card’s header: one shares your weight trend, the other shares your weight-loss bars.
- Use the Share button on whichever chart you want to post.
- Tirzing generates a clean, branded image (JPG) you can save or post. Each image follows the range tab the chart is showing, so a “3 months” chart shares a 3-month image with the numbers for that window, and the weight-loss image follows its Daily/Weekly/Monthly period too.
- Nothing is shared anywhere unless you do this deliberately.
Changed your mind? Every image you have shared is listed under Profile → Your data → Shared images, where Stop sharing deletes it and turns its link off.
Charts automatically restyle for light or dark mode, so they’re readable either way.
