  • PROOF POSITIVE ABOUT THE INFAMOUS "WEEK #3!!"

    For those of you who were disappointed about not losing much weight in week 3, go to NBC's Biggest Loser website. I just looked at the stats from all 4 weeks so far, and EVERY ONE of the people who had lost weight the first two week slowed down considerably in week 3.

    These are people whose entire job 24-7 is to lose weight. If they don't overcome the week 3 blues, then we shouldn't pay too much mind to it either.

            At the end of my week 3, which was this morning. A gain of a 1/2 pound from last week! And I've been good and doing fitday (which I love!). So I'm glad to have this information about week 3.

                Give this sticky a read...I wrote it up because I kept noticing how everyone did gangbusters on the first two weeks and the phenomenon didn't keep on rolling. It's not the end of the process though...it's just a normal pause.

                  I'm in "real" week 3 and have also been having a few stalls. I do have a couple of questions about acceptable items: Sugar Free Jello and Crystal Light/Sugar Free Tang. Can we have these? Also, I have not gotten the book, but I am reading that I should be looking for the 2002 edition of DANDR. True? If so, where can I find this one and what is the difference between 2002 and the new edition?

                    And just to up date. The day after the three weeks when I stepped on the scale I dropped a pound and a half...so much for that 1/2 pound gain that week three wanted to give me.

                      This is very true, the 2002 edition was written before Dr. Atkins death.
