I empathize with the contestants.
At one time, I was seventy pounds overweight.
I slowly lost twenty pounds over three years.
Then, three years ago, spurred on by the show, I got serious.
In six months I lost over forty pounds through diet and exercise.
A lot of both.
My wife (and weight loss partner) lost over thirty pounds.
Now, I’ve gained some, but not all, back.
No matter the amount you want to lose, it can be very difficult.
