Tonight is my favorite night of reality television – The Biggest Loser finale. Host Alison Sweeney has her work cut out for her, moving the show along for the entire two hour live event. Contestants head back to the scale and the ones previously eliminate compete for $100,000 by losing the most amount of weight. The final four go head to head at a chance for $250,000. We sat through many montages of the contestants' greatest moments on the show as well as life after the campus.  Here’s what happened on the amazing and shocking finale of The Biggest Loser.

Amber, the paramedic, has lost 84 pounds. Lezyle lost 55 pounds which is impressive, but not enough to put her in the running for the money. Jerry drops an amazing 110 pounds and rips his shirt off to celebrate and show off. Patty has shed 64 pounds since she first appeared on the show.

Jim heads to the scale next and shocks everyone with a 186 pound weight loss! The crowd goes completely insane! Phil goes next, dropping 145 pounds. The huge numbers continue to come in as Jez loses 150 pounds. David does Kim proud, shedding 140 pounds.  The men represent some more with Ryan dropping 133 pounds.

Amy loses 126 pounds and looks incredible. Kae is now 128 pounds, dropping 97 pounds. To date, Bryan has lost 122 pounds.  Nicole breaks the hundred pound mark, bringing her total weight loss to 105.  The only thing standing between Jim and $100,000 is Neil, who is the last to weigh in.  In order to beat him, Neil will have to lose more than 216 pounds.  He JUST misses it, dropping 211 pounds, making Jim the winner of the at home weight loss competition! 

Finally, several montages later, it was time to weigh in the final four.  Bill got to decide the order since he was The Biggest Loser before leaving the campus.  He decides to go from youngest to oldest, putting Isabeau first, who loses 113 pounds.  Hollie loses 105 pounds, bringing her weight down to 150.  Julie is third to hit the scale and loses 97 pounds, putting her in first place.  It's all up to Bill now.  He loses 164 pounds and is named The Biggest Loser!!  The twins did it!

This week, Bill will talk to BuddyTV about his amazing transformation.  Don't miss it!
