How is it that some people are still having huge weight losses 11 weeks into our Biggest Loser contest? I realize some people have a whole lot more to lose than others, but geez!
With just 4 weeks left in our little competition, it looks like the winner has already emerged. He lost 5 lbs. at this week's weigh-in and has dropped well over 40 pounds in the 11 weeks of the competition. That's almost 4 lbs. each and every week. Who does that? As it turns out, he did have the flu or some kind of bug for 3 or 4 days during this latest period. Is that the key to success? Should I stop washing my hands and start picking up stray tissues in the hopes the same happens to me? Oh man, just the thought makes me want to throw up!
Not much I can do about it. I lost another 1.4 lbs. this week and that is healthy. I have dropped 23.4 lbs so far. Can I overtake Mr. Big Loss. I doubt it....but I'm going to keep trying right to the end!
Starting weight - 164.8
Current weight - 141.4
Total lost - 23.4 lbs.

While Mister Big Loss does have a head on the rest of us losers, you could still very well take this thing. Seriously. Down 23 lbs?!?!? That's insane. But...it's the next four weeks which will prove the most interesting. In a way - they matter the most! It's possible to lose - or gain a significant amount in 4 weeks. Hell - I could glance at a pint of beer and pack on 8 pounds without even thinking about it! I need to be more strict than ever...I may not take the game, but I need to at least keep my dignity. Heaven help me - or anyone - if we were back to the starting weight by April 20th!!! Trust me - I could do it!
These last remaining weeks...they'll be very telling - and don't think an "upset" is out of the question yet...what if I all of a sudden started a 7 day work out routine and dropped 5lbs a week? Highly unlikely...but - I don't know if it's COMPLETELY impossible...(but pretty darn close!)
Time shall tell..
