The Biggest Loser season 12 is scheduled to premiere September 20, 2024 and there will, of course, be an entirely new cast to love, hate and celebrate. Amongst those new faces will be two new trainers: Anna Kournikova and Dolvett Quince. These fitness all-stars will be teaming up with veteran trainer Bob Harper and filling a gaping hole that Jillian Michaels is leaving.

We sent Brittany Aberle, of BL5, to speak with Anna, Dolvett, and Bob live from the ranch during season 12’s first week of filming. Everyone is excited, especially Anna for the new tennis court she’s having put in.

Biggest Loser Reunion with 30 Contestants in Thanksgiving Where Are They Now Special

Whatever happened to your favorite Biggest Loser contestants? Well, wonder no more as this Thanksgiving Biggest Loser will air a two-hour special taking in to the private lives of many of the show’s alumni. More than 30 contestants will appear on “Where Are They Now” to show you how their weight loss has changed their lives and how they look today.

Growing as popular for its love stories as it has for its weight loss success stories, you’ll get to watch the romantic proposal of season 9’s Sam and Stephanie, who recently visited the brand new Biggest Loser Resort in Malibu with Daris George. Not only that, but get access to the recent Lake Tahoe wedding of season 5 at-home winner Bernie Salazar to Jennifer, the cousin of his teammate Brittany Aberle.

You’ll see that these Losers really do walk the walk when it comes to fitness, as 50 of them meet to take on the San Francisco Triathlon, which took place this past summer. Representatives from every season since 2 participated, including Tara Costa, Ed Brantley and Brady and Vicky Vilcan. Plus, see pretty-in-pink Ali Vincent and Sherry Johnston appear at the Biggest Loser 5K event in Myrtle Beach, powered by the slogan “Don’t compete…just complete.” (more…)

Biggest Loser Resort Welcomes Brittany Aberle

It’s been a little more than two years since we first met Brittany Aberle; she was one of the contestants on Biggest Loser 5, the first Couples season. Just 22-years-old at the time, Brittany had joined Biggest Loser weighing 221 pounds and ready to shed that weight to become, what she called, “steamy hot!”. She spent twelve weeks at the ranch, competing with teammate Bernie Salazar, who she would form a close-knit sibling-like relationship with.

Brittany’s story on the Biggest Loser showed one of the most realistic glimpses of weight loss the show has had. She averaged a two-pound loss each week; while a healthy and recommended average for those at home, it was nothing compared to what her competitors were posting. She called the experience “traumatizing,” as she said throughout the rigorous workouts she would change shirts that were drenched in more sweat than she was losing on the scale. Working with trainer Jillian Michaels, they were able to identify that Brittany had PCOS, a hormonal imbalance that was preventing her weight loss.

Now, Brittany is back in the gym at the Biggest Loser Resort, where she’ll be for a three-week stay. It’s always curious to hear that these weight loss super stars are back at a weight loss camp, and Brittany admits that the maintenance has been the hardest part. (more…)

Emotional Health Leads to Weight Loss

One of the things that makes Jillian Michaels such a popular trainer on The Biggest Loser is that she really cares about her contestants and recognizes that weight gain/loss can be more complex than calories in-calories out. There are a lot of other factors that affect our bodies and metabolisms. It took Brittany Aberle nearly her entire time on the show to discover a hormone imbalance (PCOS) that was slowing down her weight loss.

Another important aspect that Jillian seems to get is the connection between physical health and mental health, possibly because her mother is a psychologist. Every season, as her contestants start to lose weight, Jillian recognizes and helps her contestants to address the emotional issues that are rising to the surface, revealed by the process. This season she’s worked closely with Coleen and Michelle. (more…)

Fitness Friends

A couple of weeks back I wrote a blog entitled “You are who you hangout with“. It spoke about the importance of having people in your life that can both motivate and support you in your quest to get healthy. While on The Biggest Loser I had an amazing partner, Brittany, who I continue to look to for support in maintaining my new found health. Relaying your health goals to the people in your life is important, so identify your “Fitness Friends” to help keep you active and leading the healthy life you desire.

Biggest Loser Brittany on her 2024 goal, Bernie’s snoring and saying goodbye to Jillian

Brittany Biggest Loser While she says her goal this year is to be “steamy hot,” many would argue that the transformation Brittany Aberle went through during her 12 weeks on the Biggest Loser ranch has already gotten her there. I had a chance to talk to her last night about her Biggest Loser experience, while she was at the mall shopping for her Biggest Loser Finale dress. She was ecstatic about taking one size into the fitting room, and having to request a smaller size.

If you need a Brittany fix before the April 15 finale, you can hear the entire Brittany Biggest Loser interview right here. Hear all the juicy details about weigh-in day, her bold skydiving move, meeting Tim Gunn and why she never saw the girls as much competition.

Brittany shares the incredible brother/sister bond she and Bernie developed (and his bear-like snoring), as well as how Jillian helped change her life in more ways than one. Biggest Loser Brittany and Jillian Michaels It was no secret that Brittany struggled with her weight loss even on campus, pulling some of the lowest numbers in the house, with two pounds each week being consistent. Jillian helped her identify a hormonal imbalance, PCOS, that not only will change the way she loses weight, but will have an impact on her health for a lifetime

Brittany bounced into the Biggest Loser Couples house in the first episode with bright eyes, gorgeous flowing hair and a “steamy hot” smile. She quickly rose as a tough-as-nails competitor, with a tenacious spirit and an infectious laugh.

It was hard to interview Brittany, because it meant she had been eliminated. A few seconds into the call and you knew it hadn’t phased her, it just brought out the fight even more.

Brittany- thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to visit with you. We look forward to seeing your steamy-hot self at the finale!
