Week 16 marked the season finale of The Biggest Loser.
This season started with ten teams of two couples and was whittled down to the final four: Ali, Kelli, Mark, and Roger. Mark and Roger were both up for elimination last week and America had to vote one of them off. The viewers voted for Mark to be eliminated.
The Biggest Loser brought back all of the original contestants for a final weigh-in. Of the eliminated contestants, the person who lost the largest percentage of body weight would win $100,000.
Take a look at the success of these wonderful people!

I watched the whole season with my wife (sometimes eating ice cream in front of the TV while we're at it). But I think this season's Biggest Loser should be retroactively re-titled...
"The Crying Game."
