The Biggest Loser followed people as they tried to lose weight, but where is each season’s winner now — and what have they said about their weight loss journey since?
NBC debuted the controversial reality series in 2004, which followed a group of people deemed overweight who would compete in a 30-week competition. The goal was to lose as many pounds as possible to be crowned “the biggest loser.”
The Biggest Loser became a cultural phenomenon and ran for 18 seasons. Despite being a ratings success, The Biggest Loser received criticism for allegedly pushing contestants to lose weight through intense exercise and calorie-restricted diets, while also creating what many considered to be humiliating situations that included junk food.
While producers — and trainers — who worked on the show denied the accusations, many contestants revealed that they struggled to maintain their weight loss long-term after appearing on The Biggest Loser. In fact, some have opened up about weighing more after being on the show than they did before their appearances.
