BLC2........Stats

I think it is pretty safe to say that everyone that wanted in on the challenge gave me their totals. We have 30 people playing this go-round. If you want to participate, but didn't reply to Monday's post....just post your weight for last Monday (7/31) and this past Monday (8/7) on this thread and I will include you in the challenge. **I also want to make a quick comment about me personally. I was on a 2 week stall, which is something that has only happened one other time for me since surgery. Last week I lost 13 pounds. The scale kept bouncing around on July 31 from 203 to 199, so I took the lower weight of 199 as my starting weight and put that I only lost 9 for this challenge. My % lost is WAY MORE than anyone else so far and I want to make it clear that I am in no way cheating or proud of this....13 pounds in one week at 7 mons post op is unhealthy and quite honestly a little scary for me. Believe it or not...I had INCREASED my calories by over 300 last week and still lost all that! I don't plan on having my % lost increase too much more over the course of this challenge.** If you gained this past week I put 0....I would never put a negative loss. And for the totals~ Name % lost AJ 1.8 Amber 1.89 Angela 0.45 Anna D 0 Carly 0 Cathlene 1.01 Dawn 4.52 Dave 1.08 Deb Mckee 0.85 Heather 1.94 Jaci 0 Jen Jen 0 Jen Jones 0.19 Jenn R 1.31 Jersey 1.93 Joy S 0 Karla 0 Karen S 1.14 Karyn 0.52 Kathy M 1.52 Katie B 2.53 Lisa E 0 Mary 0.49 Ronna 0 Rose R 2.43 Steph P 1.16 Susan D 1.05 Tiff 0 Teresa 0.78 Valerie 0 Dawn

Wow Dawn, I think you should speak to your sugeon. That sounds bad to me. Who would have ever thought losing 13 pounds was bad. But that is comparable with the weeks immediately after surgery. I hope that you are ok and that the weight loss is not a result of a medical problem. For my peace of mind would you call your surgeon? Love ya and hope I don't sound like and overbearring mommy! God BLess! Jen

I have an appointment with him very soon and I plan on addressing several concerns. Thanks for caring for me mommy..lol Dawn

cheater, cheater, protein eater...... No, we don't suspect you of cheating, luv...but I agree with JJ's concerns----your losses sometimes make me nervous, D. Cathy
