The Biggest Loser Asia Season 1

Finally, The Biggest Loser Asia (TBLA 1) winner was announced last night on the finale for season 1. It came down to four contestants: Aaron, Carlo, David, and Martha. David has become the first winner of The Biggest Loser Asia. David, a salesman from Jakarta, now weighs 74kg, having shed a total of 83kg from his initial weight of 157kg. He beat three other finalists to nab the top prize of US$100,000 and a brand new Renault car.

David says, "I never thought that I would say this, but it feels great to be a loser. Asia's Biggest Loser!" After a 13-week in-camp contest, the top four went home for two months to continue losing weight on their own. As soon as David returned home, he trained from eight to ten hours a day and watched his diet. So how's he going to spend his money? "I'm thinking of buying a house with the money, because I'm planning to get married by the end of this year. I also want to go for a short holiday before getting back to my normal life."

David's tranformation:

Wow! That's a huge difference! But, for me David looked physically weak last night. I guess it must be from the extreme exercises and little eating. He looked older than his real age, which is 26 years old if I'm not mistaken. But, it just my opinion. What you guys think about it?

By the way, the other three finalists did pretty well too. First runner up, Filipino chef Carlo Miguel, weighed in at 83kg. He shed a total of 49kg from his initial weight of 132kg. "It wasn't easy but I got it done," Carlo said.

Carlo's tranformation:

For me, Carlo's transformation is more acceptable. He looked healthier and younger.

The second runner up is Aaron Mokhtar who started the season with 159kg but he worked his way to lose a total of 60kg. Now weighing at 99kg, Aaron's happy to be home with his wife and two young daughters.

Aaron's tranformation:

Since Aaron is from Malaysia, so I'm rooting for him. Look at his transformation! Looks younger, energetic and healthier!

Last but not least, Martha Lai who is the only female and the youngest contestant in the top four finalist. The 20-year-old shed a whopping 40kg from her initial weight of 127kg. "I know it's lame but exercise works!" Martha confessed.

Martha's tranformation:

Not as much difference as the other 3 contestants, but still, she looks gorgeous! Good job Martha!

So, after looking at all the transformations of the contestants, there's a conclusion that I've made - it's not impossible to lose weight and be healthier. What we need is a discipline to maintain our diet plan, exercise routines, and a healthy lifestyle.
