Biggest Loser Week #9--A Little Heavier


This is week #9 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. My total weight loss since my first weigh-in on September 21 (with a starting weight of 189 lbs.) is 13 pounds.

There are only two more weeks left in the competition.This Sunday I am running the Philadelphia Marathon, so there will be carb loading. This is the first week I've gained weight, but it is no surprise considering I've been lowering my the number of miles I run prior to the marathon and eating (weigh) too much. I'm happy I only gained half a pound. I still want to be in the 160s, but it is going to be difficult to lose 7 pounds in a 2 week period that includes Thanksgiving.
