My office encouraged the use of straws. Some don't. It won't hurt you to try it out and see how it works for you.

I've lost 76.6 since my highest. And 63.6 since March 11th.
I've dropped 2 sizes in pants.
I lost a bunch at the beginning but has tapered off and I'm losing at a regular rate now 1-2 lbs a week. I did have an almost 3 week stall and then all of a sudden I dropped 10lbs in a week. So it made up for it!

231.6 for me

Good morning everyone! I hope everyone had a good week!
I weighed 165.9 this morning.
I will be updating the spreadsheet late tonight after work.
Also, sorry to those of you who's weight I didn't get for last week. I completed my first triathlon yesterday and didn't have much time toward the end of the week. I'll be putting in those weights this evening as well, and giving a snapshot of how the group did as a whole last week!
Have a great week everyone!

No changes and it was salt retention? No, that doesn't make sense at all.

I think the 3 week stall is real and there is a scientific explanation for it out there somewhere. I was doing everything right and didn't lose for 3 weeks. However, any other stall or plateau (pre or post op) have been related to my actions. If I do things right, I lose weight. And I can only speak for myself here.

Same thing.. I lose 9 pounds last week.. and it wasn't salt retention..

Physics also says I can't lift a car, but there are reports of people lifting cars off people. Our bodies don't always make sense.
I had a stall for 2.5 weeks at the beginning. I didn't do anything different and I was following all the rules. One day I started dropping weight again (still no changes) and suddenly I was down 10lbs in a week.

Only .6 to my Memorial Day goal! So glad my weight started moving again!

Getting so close. Not sure how many days to get that next pound off but I'm excited to get there. Another 10 and I'll be in the 100's for the first time in almost 25 years! I was stalled for a while so happy the scale is moving again and inching closer to these huge milestones!

Sorry! 252.4
Only lost .2 but I guess a loss is a loss. Weight loss has kinda stalled here lately.

Hi all! We lost a total of 137.0 last week! Great job everyone! We have a new highest % of weight lost person: @Idnoerds, with 11.11%! Keep up the great work!
@armygalawife, sorry I had the wrong goal! It should be fixed now!
If I wrote down anybody else's weights/goals wrong, please let me know and I'll fix it!
I've decided the next challenge will be a 4th of July challenge! It will start June 1 and end July 8. Watch out for the next link in the next few weeks. I hope everyone has a great week!
