The Biggest Loser (Season 1)

The Biggest Loser (Season 1)

"The Biggest Loser" is an NBC reality television show that began broadcasting on October 19, 2004. The show features overweight contestants competing to lose the largest percentage of their body weight and receive the title of 'Biggest Loser,' along with a $250,000 grand prize. The first season featured twelve contestants divided into two teams of six players. The teams were each lead by a personal trainer, Bob Harper with the Blue team and Jillian Michaels with the Red team. The first season was hosted by Caroline Rhea.

Did They Keep the Weight Off?

Prior to the start of Season 4 a special episode was shown revisiting past contestants to see if they kept the weight off. Only Andrea and Kelly Mac were featured, but on the official website, Aaron was also interviewed.

Andrea, who lost 59 pounds in the competition, lost another 5 pounds to bring her current weight to 151. This had made her the only contestant featured to actually maintain her weight loss.

Kelly Mac gained 9 pounds since the Season One finale to bring her weight to 160 pounds.

Aaron, who was eliminated in the third week and losing 25 of his 61 pounds at home, gained 24 pounds to bring his weight back to 224, only one pound less than when he left the ranch.
