Shedding the weight was only half the battle for the contestants on Biggest Loser(NBC). Often pushed to beyond their limits, the 12-week program on the ranch would help 16 overweight contestants discover things about themselves-both good and bad. Take-no-prisoners trainers Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper were with the 4 remaining contestants step by step of the seemingly never-ending journey.
