Just wondering if anyone has had a low # on their weight loss for week 2. The first week I lost 4 pounds:laugh: , but then during the second week I only lost 1/2 pound:cry:

I'm thinking this might be normal...I know they always talk about Week 2 on the Biggest Loser...but I wanted to make sure.

Thanks for your support! :smile:

    I have just started but wanted to tell you not to be discouraged at all. Any loss is great news and you have to know that it is not in the numbers but know that some weeks will be better than others. I don't sweat the numbers but I notice the inches and how my clothes are fixing. Just be encouraged!

    i think its normal. just stay on track and dont get discouraged. i think it is great that you lost another 1/2 pound - just think, it is another 1/2 pound you will never have to see again!

    so many things affect our bodies and our bodies react strangly sometimes. just be glad you lost what you have and keep on keeping on. make sure you keep to your food/excercise plan and you should be well on your way! :flowerforyou:

    It's perfectly normal to slow down after the first week, since the first one is mostly water weight.
    Just keep with it though, and you WILL lose the weight that you want to! :smile:

    Traditionally week two is always the most disappointing week on the tv show the biggest loser. They always dread that week.

    I don't have a scale, but suspecting that this being 1.5 week into this, I lost alot, my clothes fit WAY different.....I am guessing close to 8 pounds maybe........maybe 5, but they are fitting closer to 8......I am sure I will not lose anything next week! I have to say though, when I did this before (10 years ago) I lost steadily like 3 pounds a week after the second week, 9 pounds my 4th week, then at 40lbs, the weight started FALLING off of me.....like falling off for 20 pounds.......

    So hang in there the second week is just the second week of a long life of healthy...........................................

    GO Green!

    Same here, maybe the same or a small gain. I didn't know that the 2nd week was most disappointing on Biggest Loser, that makes me feel alot better.
