So today was the first weigh in day for me for our office pool Biggest Loser. The bad news is that I was (the office scale put me at 209lbs even home scale was 209.5lbs) the heaviest contestant by exactly 20lbs and half the women in the pool weigh LESS than my goal weight and one girl there was 70lbs lighter than me, I don't think she should be losing anything! Granted a few of them are a good 6" shorter than me, but seriously, that was not a fun place to be. They are all so sweet, many of them were very surprised at my weight and one even said (jokingly) that I must be cheating with weights in my bra or something because I am thinner (aka smaller circumference) than she is.
The good news is that I will have a lot more weight to lose so I have a very good chance to win IF I stick to plan. Wish me luck ladies.

just think positively that you do have the best change of winning! just like on the real biggest loser, usually the person who is the heaviest to start ends up winning because the % lost is usually more. I know its probably really hard to see some people on there trying to lose weight when you would love to be the weight they are at, but I guess most people feel they have some weight to lose so its all relative. just focus on yourself and your goals and I know youll do well.
You don't need luck--you've got tenacity! And us! :)
I'm impressed that you'll share your weight with your co-workers. That's the stuff of nightmares for me.
