Default Robochallenge end of month data

Ever since I started supplementing my potassium, at about 2.5 grams per day,
I have been about to maintain close to a 2 pound per week loss average.
This is despite the fact that I am no longer obese, but instead, overweight.

March: 9.9 pounds

I may not push as hard next month. If I get up suddenly after sitting at
the computer for an hour, I can get a bit dizzy for about 5 seconds. It is
a warning that my calories are a bit too low. I'll make up for this Friday
night, when I dine out with friends....

I won the competition at my TOPS meeting. They had skipped a week due to
rain, so I weighed in with a 6.75 loss for the two weeks. It is best to
lead by example....

Thanks.

I declined the bag of fruit prize, so I picked a pocket notebook from a box
of alternate prizes.

Outstanding; keeping a decent rate of loss up so close to goal.

Most folks can't (or won't) do it.

However, I am curious how you think the potassium helps you, other than
to prevent fluid retention from masking any fat losses.

Thanks.

I'm guessing on the potassium. Fitday showed I had a major deficit, as low
as 15% of the "Daily Value" and my blood tests showed dropping levels, yet
still within the normal range at the low end.

Low potassium is supposed to lead to fluid retention, among other things.
Maybe a lot of my fat cells had lost the fat already, and were full of
fluid.
