MFP THE BIGGEST LOSER - Weight Loss Success So Far

Options
Hi, I'm Jonas, the organizer of the MFP The Biggest Loser Competition. I was just going over some numbers tonight and wanted to share the success that the contestants of The Biggest Loser on MFP have had so far. We are four weeks into the competition and these guys have lost a tremendous amount of weight. The competition lasts for nine more weeks, and I expect to see some of these guys either reach or come close to their overall goal that they set when they joined MyFitnessPal.

Here are the numbers. Unfortunately, this data just includes the current contestants. I don't have the data for the eliminated contestants handy. Here is what these guys have lost after four weeks.

Team Black lost a total of 37.7 pounds since the competition began four weeks ago.

    I'm with jedwards on this one: this couldn't have come at a better time. I'm sad that the Yellow Team doesn't have better numbers overall, though it is reassuring to see that I've lost around 8 pounds (though to be fair to my team- NOT the highest percentage; that's a whole different set of numbers!). That's right with my goal of 2 lbs a week, so MFP must be working. I know I have definitely been working! I see some of the others with really big numbers lost and that can be discouraging, but I can't live their lives so I can't expect to have their results.

    This contest first pushed me to TRY to run a mile (completed), then to run it in under twelve minutes (I tried, but wasn't able to do), and then, because I hadn't realized what I could accomplish before, I decided to begin C25K training, and have been running for two weeks. I'm not fast, but I'm moving more, I actually look forward to doing it, and I'm feeling pretty good about myself. The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step, and this competition pushed me to take my first step on that journey.

    For that, I'm VERY grateful. :flowerforyou:
