Week Four Results

It is another exciting week for the Martin Weight Loss Challenge. Both teams lost weight, although one team member (and I will not say who) gained a bit of weight this week. Keep in mind, this is going to happen to each and every one of us, so be careful about that glass house and stone issue. Anyway, Chris and Katie reclaimed than Grand Champion status for the week, losing a WHOPPING 10.2 lbs or 1.46% of their Week Three weight. This puts their total weight loss at 57.2 lbs and 7.58%. John and Paula have lost a combined weight of 15.5 lbs or 3.44%. All in, the two teams have lost 72.7 lbs or 6% of our initial weight. That's almost 15 of these.

Welcome to Tom & Tracy on our weight loss journey. The pounds continue to melt off of our honorary participants. (Aunt Anne is going to get me her number tonight, she didn't have it this morning.) Anyway, in total the HP's lost just under 10 lbs this week, with a fantastic first week showing by Tom & Tracy. All in, the HP's have lost 32.3 lbs for a total percentage weight loss of 3.4%. Great progress everyone!

Overall, the Martin Weight Loss Challenge Team has lost a total combined weight of a whopping 108 lbs. Yes, that's right, ONE-HUNDRED AND EIGHT POUNDS! That is 4.77% of our initial weight. We lost 21 lbs as a group this past week or just under 1% of our total body weight. Let me say this - we are owning this weight loss thing, Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig got nothing on us! CONGRATS TO ALL - KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC WORK!

I recently went to a health screening, and they had a 5 lb blob of fat (made of rubber)on display. It was amazing to see how big that thing was. I wish everyone could see it. And the team has lost the equivilent of 21 of those blobs of fat!!!! Unbelievable! Keep up the good work everyone. And I don't think I know you Tom and Tracy, but welcome. You had a great first week!
