Fuel Burn Vs Weight

B738, anyone got a rule of thumb or preferably a formula for working out extra\reduced fuel burn for a TO weight that differs from the computer plog TO weight.

Jeppesen used to provide this on our plogs for a previous company, eg 78kg per 1000kg above or below scheduled TO weight. Their calculation obviously based on flight time and flight profile.
