Michelle Aguilar Biggest Loser: Families Winner

 

Michelle Aguilar was crowned The Biggest Loser last night for this season’s The Biggest Loser: Families.

After winning Michelle screamed: “I’m number one!,”  as the season’s 15 other contestants congratulated her and confetti streamed down on the finale stage.

 After the show she told Usmagazine:

“It’s funny, but I feel at peace.  I mean, I’m excited on the outside, but I also feel a real calm, like I’m fulfilling something that I was meant to fulfill — and that feels great!

“I feel like this world is now my oyster, and I’m just going to go after it!”

Aguilar, a 26-year-old assistant director from Ft. Worth, Texas, started out the competition at 242 pounds and lost 132 pounds, sufficient for a 45.45% weight-loss percentage. She earned the show’s $250,000 grand prize and the title Biggest Loser.

Michelle, who trained with Jillian Michaels, along with her once-estranged mother (and teammate) Renee, beat out finalists Ed Brantley, 31, and Vicky Vilcan, 37.  Ed went from 335 to 196 lbs.; Vicky, from 246 to 145 lbs. Ed had competed against his wife Heba for one of the finalist slots.

Congrats to all!
