help'!!! i need opinions!!!

Ok so I recently entered into a weight loss competition at a gym. It was a 88 day program n whoever wins, wins 10000. Well it ended on may 4. They go by % of weight loss. Well #1 they still don't have the results yet and #2 I heard a rumor going around that some guy at another gym lost 160 Pds!!! Which is great, but in 88 days?? Seems unheard of to me. BUT then I heard he was on steroids. Which makes me mad n seems highly unfair. BUT I'm looking for opinions to see if maybe he could actually loose 15pds a week and I could be mistaken or if I should raise hell that its unfair that this cheating went on. By the way, I lost 99 pds but all NATURAL with dieting n exercise :) hope someone can help :)

    99 lbs in 88 days??? How? Thats more than 1 pound a day
  • Well my first couple weeks I lost a lot because I ate healthy n I worked out 6 days a week, which I hadn't done for years so the weight dropped off of me but them it went down to 4-5 pds a week


    Lol besides I was questioning the guy who lost15 pds a week a.k.a over 2 pds a day

    Rumour no 1
    there's a guy who lost 166 lbs
    Rumour no 2
    he's on steroids.

    My opinion ---- wait till they announce the winner, it may be you . If it is this , maybe fictional, guy make sure you know for sure he's on steroids before you start even more rumours.

    I think it's near impossible to lose that much and certainly not healthy.

    If the rumours are true I'd be complaining, that's for sure.

    WELL DONE ON YOUR AMAZING WEIGHT LOSS.

    Sounds incredible, however have you watched The Biggest Loser? If this person had the time to dedicate himself totally every day it might be possible depending on how much he weighed to start with. I don't know many people that has that kind of time on their hands. Good for you on your success!!!
  • Thank you and part of my success was applying what biggest loser does. Keep in mind the show is only 12 weeks but the competition is actually 5-6. They go home for 2 months and then go and weigh in. So watching that show ive never seen anybody lose 160 pds in 12 weeks that's why I question this guy.
