TBL update

So it has almost been a month and the biggest loser is on and going strong. It is amazing how quickly your body becomes used to a new routine. It adjusts almost immediately and somehow manages to keep everything rolling along relatively smoothly. The first week of the biggest loser was pretty mind blowing. Jessi and I lost a lot of weight in a little time and we both up-ed the amount of weight that we are hoping to lose by the time we are done. The thing that neither of us were counting on was the bodies ability to adjust to the minimized calorie intake and the maximized calorie burn.
The second week we both lost a pound...that's right. We went from losing 9 and 7 pounds to 1! Talk about a kick in the pants. Amazingly enough this did not make either one of us want to work harder, but discouraged us both immensely. Now we did come back and made the third week a little more productive. Jessi got down to 165 and I got down to 218. That is a pretty impressive loss! We will see how we did this week as we come up to one month of TBL09!!

Keep up the good work. Just think, by Christmas all this will be behind you and you'll not have to ever diet again. Just maintain, which is a whole lot easier.
