Weigh-In Day, Week 2

Today was my second weigh-in for the Biggest Loser challenge.  I was very nervous, but also excited to see if any of my efforts had paid off at all.  Here are my stats:

Starting weight: 270
Current Weight: 265

I lost 5 pounds!  I'm happy with that result, although there is a little nagging voice in the back of my head that tells me it won't be enough to win the competition.  I know there were people in front of me in line who were losing 10 pounds, but it doesn't go by weight lost, it goes by percentage of body fat lost.  I may still have a chance, as slight as it may be.  Even though I would love to win the contest, this all goes beyond that.  This is something I am doing for me.  It is my fresh start at life and it is helping me rebuild myself as a stronger, happier, and healthier person.  I will be reaping the benefits from this for the rest of my life.  So yes, winning would be amazing, but no matter what the outcome, I will come out on top anyways.
