Technically it isn't week 12, but that's what they call it. The contestants all went home for a few weeks and then EVERYONE came back to compete in the marathon. The winner not only guaranteed themself a spot in the final 3 but also won $25,000. There were cash prizes for 1st through 5th places. As revealed in the preview last week, Ramon won first place. He was followed by Courtney, John, Jessica, & Patrick. Four out of 5 were from the young group and John has become a powerhouse of strength and endurance. I just hope he can stay the course and keep the weight off - sometimes the fiercest of competitors end up gaining it back because the competition, which was the main motivation, is over.
Vinny didn't pull through for me as Biggest Loser so I still have hope for him in the at home contest.
Final Three are John, Antone, & Ramon. I fully expect John to win, but would love to see Antone (or even Ramon) pull out the win. Antone has been one of Bob's favorites from the beginning I think and he would be a great person to win the title. I can't wait to see the live finale next week (even though I can't watch it live). Of course, I am also excited for Season 13 to begin in January. I love watching the transformation the contestants go through as they lose weight and ultimately change their lives forever. It really motivates me to get moving and get healthy.
I have made a lot of changes in my family's eating habits that I completely attribute to this show. I also lost over 20 pounds this summer. I want to continue to improve our health and lifestyle - especially to set a good foundation for my kids to build on.
