How many pounds did Mark lose in 3 months? ** Since Mark was losing 10 pounds each month, in 3 months he lost 10 * 3 = <<10*3=30>>30 pounds.
What was Mark's initial weight? ** Adding the weight lost to the final weight gives an initial weight of 70 + 30 = <<70+30=100>>100 pounds.
What was Mark's initial weight? ** Mark's initial weight was 100 pounds.
