Answer: The contestant weighed 73.1 pounds when the show began.

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the two month period, he weighed 194.3 pounds.

Initial weight = weight at the end of the two month period + weight lost by contestant

= 194.3 +78.8 pounds

= 273.1 pounds

Hence, the contestant weighed 73.1 pounds when the show began.
