After The Biggest Loser 15 winner Rachel Frederickson weighed in at just 15 lbs on the season finale, a mass outcry arose that she’d lost too much, too fast. Even we couldn’t help but ponder on whether going from a size 20 to a size zero in just a few short months was healthy.
The Biggest Loser winner Rachel Frederickson was quick to reassure everyone her weight loss was all natural and there was nothing wrong, even though being just 105 lbs at 5 foot 5 puts her strongly in the underweight category according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
After watching who won The Biggest Loser 15 last night, we started to wonder whether perhaps winner Rachel Fredrickson might have lost too much weight. At The Biggest Loser finale on Tuesday night, Rachel weighed in at just 105 lbs, losing 155 in total during her time on the show.
Even trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels looked stunned when Rachel walked up to the scale for her final weigh-in. Viewers could hear Jillian saying “oh my god” repeatedly over Rachel’s astonishing transformation.
After a long, grueling season, it is finally time to find out who won The Biggest Loser 15! No matter which of the three finalists ended up being The Biggest Loser 15 winner, we think all of them did an amazing job. So give a big round of applause to Rachel Fredrickson, Bobby Saleem, and David Brown for going all the way and never giving up.
Just take a look at these amazing The Biggest Loser 2014 before and after shots of the season 15 top 3 contestants! We honestly just don’t know how they manage to loose this much weight even with the crazy amount of working out they do. Hats off to them all though for facing their inner demons and being the last three standing at The Biggest Loser 15 finale.
We were so sad when American Idol winner Ruben Studdard was the one who went home on The Biggest Loser 2013 last week! Totally did not expect that to happen. We really wanted the “Velvet Teddy Bear” to make it all the way to the finale. This week, it was just as hard to guess which contestant would be the one who was eliminated on The Biggest Loser 15. We were just really hoping it wouldn’t be another of our favorites getting the boot!

Last week on The Biggest Loser 2013, we really wished Dolvett Quince had still had his save so he could have kept Ruben Studdard from going home. However, Dolvett had already used his trainer save to rescue TanyaWinfield the previous week — and then she failed to lose much weight again last week either!
On The Biggest Loser 15 week 5, the kid ambassadors from last season returned to the show to judge a cooking challenge. The contestants had to compete to whip up healthy and delicious family meals to demonstrate what they are learning about nutrition on the ranch. The winning team got a sweet prize (and we don’t mean a sugary treat!) so it was war in the kitchen to cook the most awesome meal.
When all was said and done though, it was time for another The Biggest Loser 15 cast member to go home. But wait! What is this? Apparently the White Team broke a rule and rendered last week’s weigh-in results invalid! Jillian was giving her team caffeine supplements the week before without permission from the staff doctors. This is the first time anything like this has ever happened on the show.
This means the team will get a 4 pound disadvantage as a punishment AND Ruben Studdard is back on the Red Team! No wonder he has lost 104 lbs to date since his elimination last week, he went back to the ranch!
So who was eliminated on The Biggest Loser results tonight after all this craziness? Sadly we have to report that Jillian’s team was the losing team tonight and the person with the lowest weight loss percentage was Craig. Bummer! We really thought they would go much farther in the competition after he had a real breakthrough this week. We’ll miss you Craig!
The Biggest Loser 2013 season 15 is finally here and this time around it is all about second chances. For one celebrity contestant, this is not only his second chance to get healthy, but maybe his last chance to save his own life. But will he last long enough on the show to make a difference or crash and burn in the first weigh-in Biggest Loser results? Find out who was eliminated on The Biggest Loser 15 tonight in our spoilers from the premiere!
The Biggest Loser: Second Chances 2 kicked off tonight at 8PM ET on NBC. Trainers Bob Harper, Jillian Michaels and Dolvett Quince are back again this year to kick butt and take names in their quest to whip 15 competitors into shape. Included in this year’s cast are two ‘celebrity’ contestants, one of which you have probably heard of and one you might not have — unless you’re a follower of the US Olympic weightlifting team.
Former The Biggest Loser star Tara Costa lost 155 pounds during her time on the show but like a number of other contestants, hasn’t had an easy time keeping it all off. In her case, however, gaining back the weight could mean losing a whole lot of money.

After placing as the 2nd runner-up on The Biggest Loser: Couples 2, Tara Costa — a fan favorite — went on to make a career out of being that girl who lost all that weight. The former model signed a number of endorsement deals to represent various fitness and weight loss products, including one with FC Online Marketing (owners of ILoveKickboxing.com).
The Biggest Loser 2013 premiere week continues Monday night as the contestants face their first weigh-in and elimination. After a dramatic The Biggest Loser season 14 premiere episode last night, one team is left with the harsh task of voting off one of their members on tonight’s episode.

On the first part of The Biggest Loser 2013 premiere Sunday night, the show was focused heavily on the theme of conquering childhood obesity. Former Biggest Loser trainer Jillian Michaels, who was heavy as a child herself, returned and laid into all the competitors with a vile tongue and an absolutely no excuses attitude.
