Well I think there has been enough time for everyone to log their weight for our first weigh-in! I’m excited about what we’ve seen so far and looking forward to seeing more. With that said let’s recognize our fellow MFPers that have made some tremendous strides leading up to the first weigh-in (keep in mind that some people waited until 5/31 to record their starting weight, where as some people, such as myself, recorded their starting weight when they signed up):

Participation Stats:

- 506 people signed up
- 496 people entered a starting weight (I’d call out the 10 that didn’t but you know who you are )

How much weight did we lose collectively?

What was the average weight loss? (calculated using the people that checked in 5/31)

- About 1 lbs. Once again, great job everyone!!!!!

- 163 people recorded no change (people that recorded their started their challenge on the first weigh in)
- 168 people lost weight!
- 56 people lost 0.1-1 lbs.
- 52 people lost 1.1-2.0 lbs.
- 56 people lost 2.1-4.9 lbs.
- 14 people lost 5 lbs. or more

So that’s just the first week, actually less than the first week dependent on when you signed up.
