The Biggest Loser Week #3 Results


This is week #3 of the Biggest Loser competition at work. Ten of us are competing to lose the most weight for a 1st prize of $140, 2nd prize of $40, and 3rd prize of $20. My photoshopped results are above.  I am currently in first place (barely) with a total of about 3.44 percent weight loss. 

I was a little disappointed with only losing 2 pounds this week considering how much I ran this week. I ran 8 miles on the treadmill at the gym last Thursday, 7 miles outside on Friday, 18 miles on Sunday (from my house to Montgomery County, MD, and back) and 5 miles on the treadmill on Tuesday.  That is 38 miles in less than a week.  I also have been trying to limit my intake and avoiding most sweets. 2 pounds? That sucks. After losing 4.5 pounds last week, it was a bit of a disappointment. I want to be in the 170s again. 

I'm on vacation next week, so losing weight may be a challenge. I like to go out to eat on vacation. I'm going to need to keep up the running while down in Florida.
