Hi fellow S2S-ers! :flowerforyou:

I was looking through the data for our first week and we did an awesome job! Even counting some weight gain, 110 of us lost over 266 pounds! (2 thin people! ;-)
In the spirit of competition and motivation, I thought it would be fun to shout out how we're all doing according to the data.
I'm posting this because it really motivates me to compare progress, but the spirit of the group is about support, so just remember what our organizer said this week:

Krys_T
"I just wanted to say that EVERYONE did a great job this week!!! No matter if you lost, gained, or stayed the same...you stayed committed to this group and to your total body health for a week! For most of us, we figured out what has worked or not worked for us and how we can improve. This group is designed to see how other people are losing the weight and so they can see how we are as well.
Do not feel discouraged if you did not put up 7lbs (Like barefootbeauty....which is AWESOME)...we are all in different stages of our weight loss. For people who are just beginning, they may see big numbers in the beginning (Think about The Biggest Loser...ALWAYS huge numbers the first week) for people who have been at it for a little while a 1 to 2lb loss is awesome still. We are all different heights and starting weights. For example, someone who is 150lbs may lose a lot less than someone who is 250lbs. You have to keep all of those factors in mind.
So from week to week, the plan is not to see other's weight loss and be discouraged...it is to be motivated to find your own "magic number" and what works for YOU! We are all indivduals working as a team so everyone is going to be different. Different metabolisms, different motivations, etc. Heck...I will be happy to stay consistent with working out 5 days a week! I will be satisfied with that.
So just remember to stay strong, do not allow discouragement to be a part of your attitude...and be happy that you are brave and taking this thing on! Go out there and be an inspiration to those who feel like they can't do it....and think about how good we are ALL going to look and feel on June 1st!
I love every single one of you for taking this journey with me and staying as positive as you possibly can. LETS DO THIS....TO THE END!" --Krystle B

With that said, onto the numbers...
