Rebecca Meyer Loses 122 Pounds and Finds Love with Daniel Wright on 'The Biggest Loser'

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 21:06:00 +0000

Fans watching "The Biggest Loser" this season thought that Rebecca Meyer 's best friend on the show was her roommate and pink team partner Amanda Arlauskas . But they would be wrong. Meyer, who currently weights 157 pounds -- a 122-pound loss -- revealed last night that it is really Daniel Wright , who was voted out last week, but has still lost 230 pounds over his two seasons on the hit weight-loss series. ET spoke to Rebecca, who revealed, "I did fall in love with my best friend. We became each other's go-to person. It was, "Wow, ok." Now I look at him and he is my best friend, but he is also the person I want to jump." Wondering why the show didn't pick up on their relationship? The 25-year-old from Des Moines, Iowa says, " The show didn't pick it up because it was after hours. I am a night owl." ET : How is it different that you met Daniel at the ranch, rather than at a restaurant or a club?

'The Biggest Loser' Review: I'm Giving You A Makeover

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 19:57:17 +0000

The past couple of weeks on The Biggest Loser has been a little bit about the game, of people getting bitten because of overplaying it, and people who do the same thing despite the warnings. But that gets banished tonight, sort of: it's makeover week! Perfect time to look at the six remaining contestants in a different way, from people who are constantly sweaty after their workouts, to those who exude confidence... but still have to be sweaty after their workouts. This season's makeovers are courtesy of Tim Gunn, who we all know from Project Runway, and Tabatha Coffey, who we all know from, well, Tabatha's Salon Takeover. The makeovers are necessary: they have to do some motivational speeches at an event, so why go out there and talk about stuff looking your worst, right? It's actually funny seeing that Rudy was really, really, reeeally excited for makeover week. (I expected the reaction from Rebecca, but hey, I'll take what I can get.) The appearance was a quick one, however, because the ...

'Biggest Loser''s Daniel Wright on His 230-Pound Loss and His Heartbreak

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 08:01:00 +0000

In season seven of "The Biggest Loser," Daniel Wright was the heaviest-ever contest with a starting weight of 454 pounds. Today, the 20-year-old from Willow Spring, NC, weighs 224 pounds -- an incredible 230 pound loss -- thanks to being given a second chance on the current season of the hit weight-loss series. That said, he still has heartbreak. When Daniel first signed on for "The Biggest Loser," he was partnered with his friend David Lee . Since David left the ranch, he hasn't been motivated to use the tools he learned, so, as we saw on Daniel's "Where Are They Now" interview last week, David hasn't changed his lifestyle. "It is heartbreaking," Daniel says. "Now I know how my family felt when they were talking to me before I started my journey. I now see what everyone else was trying to get me to realize. The heartbreaking thing to me is I can never say anything to make him change. It is going to have to be him."

'Biggest Loser''s Shay Sorrells' 100-Pound Weight Loss Couldn't Keep her Safe

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 21:20:00 +0000

"The Biggest Loser" contestants received a shock on Tuesday night's show when host Alison Sweeney told them that two people would be going home -- and one of them would be automatic as the show had added a new element to the weigh-in: a red line. The person who had lost the lowest percentage of their body weight would automatically leave the ranch, no vote would be taken. Surprisingly, that person turned out to be fan favorite Daniel Wright . After Daniel left, the rest of the cast had to vote for either pink team member Amanda Arlauskas , or orange team member Shay Sorrells to be the second person to leave. Shay, who was the heaviest-ever contestant, was sent packing. She lost by one vote, cast by Rudy Pauls , with whom she had had a confrontation during a challenge that week. Shay had lost 17 pounds at the weigh-in, making her total 100 pounds, a record for a woman on the ranch. So it seemed at first as if she were safe, but because she still weighed 376 pounds, it just ...

Jumping Through Hoops on 'Biggest Loser'

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 18:32:26 +0000

By Jennifer Kelly Last night’s “Biggest Loser” had the contestants literally jumping through hoops to stay in the game. And, make no mistake, the participants are now treating this life-altering opportunity as a game. It’s like Tracey the Sea Witch cast a spell before she left last week! On last night’s episode, Sami Brady announced that not one but TWO of the eight Losers would be eliminated. The player with the lowest percentage of weight loss would be “below the red line” and out automatically, with no discussion. Additionally, the players with the secon...

The Biggest Loser: Daniel Admits Still Struggling with Binge Eating

Wed, 11 Nov 2009 16:03:33 +0000

Daniel Wright's a pretty big presence on The Biggest Loser --and no, it's not supposed to be a pun. After all, he was part of the show last season, and joined again this season, vowing to finish what he had started. This time, however, things didn't exactly go well, and as his weight loss began to fluctuate unlike the others, his fellow contestants began to consider voting him off since he's already been given his second chance. Still, his elimination last night was pretty drastic, too: he was cut after dropping below the newly-introduced red line. Elimination is, of course, something that Daniel didn't want. "I was getting so close that I was getting a taste of being a finalist," he told People . "It was never something I wanted when I went the first time."

'The Biggest Loser' Review: Getting Jumpy Over A Red Line

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:40:03 +0000

For a moment, I thought, Tracey's elimination on The Biggest Loser last week would mean the end to devious game-playing tactics this season. Well, I was wrong. This week saw some tactics that would usually put a frown on my face. This week is, of course, double elimination week, which provides enough reason for the remaining contestants to panic. And then Alison drops another bombshell by revealing the addition of what she calls the red line. We know how the weigh-in goes. Go below the yellow line and you're up for elimination. Go below the red line, and you're eliminated on the spot.
