It's not easy to be left behind. That's just the position I find myself in. Compared to the other contestants, I'm an underachiever: my weight has remained unchanged over six months. Compared to my sister (I'm so proud of you!), I've done nothing.
As always, I'm left behind asking myself "Where did I go wrong?" As always, I think the answers are that I don't push myself enough in the gym and I don't consistently manage what I eat.
The contest will end in a few short weeks, but until this extra weight is off my body, my contest continues. My struggle won't end with Lighten Up's final weigh-in. My journey will continue with every decision I make, and every fear I face for the rest of my life.
I've got work to do.
