Tell me why my husband has lost 13lbs in one week and I have only lost 2? very proud of him but super jealous (in a good way!) the other kicker is we just joined a week ago. what gives?!

    First of all, 2 lbs in a week is perfectly reasonable and 13lbs in 1 week is ridiculous and under most circumstances not healthy. However, I'm willing to wager that most of this loss was water weight.

    Aren - I know exactly what you mean. Don't worry, men lose faster than us. 2lbs a week is perfectly fine. When you lose it slowly it means it wont rebound/

    My husband just started working out with me this week and I'm sure in a week he will be down more then me, but I will be excited for him, having someone to do this with is award enough right now.

    I think the answer here is obvious: your husband had a baby.

    I beg to differ! I saw a pregnant man on Oprah. Explain that without menstruation.. that's what I thought.

    Hang in there... Try to focus on your goals only... knowing that each pound lost brings you closer to where you want to be. Losing weight fast is a big confidence booster, but it's the turtle who keeps plugging along who ultimately wins the race. :-)
