Debbie

Hi, my name is Debbie and I am Kara and Breanna's mother. I have four children and 6 grandchildren and teach third grade here in Sandy. I lost about 18 pounds about 8 years ago, but after some surgery a year ago, lost my desire to exercise and eat healthy. Thus, I am now 10 pounds heavier then this time last year and hating it. Hopefully, this competition will motivate me to get moving again. Already I've exercised 6 out of 7 days, so look out! I'll be the "old lady" on the team, but I hate to lose any competition.

Joelle

Joelle is convinced that in a previous life she was a super model with the perfect body that traveled the world and lived in a posh beach town. So realizing that previous existence – a life she may or may not have ever known - she is now striving to obtain that super model body while living a happy life with her husband. She is also trying to be a super mom role model while living in a land locked state. Joelle’s goal is nutrition and fitness to obtain optimal health. Hopefully someday she will get everything she hopes for including the posh beach town existence and a happy and healthy self and family.

Michelle

I am 28 years old. I am joining the Biggest Loser in hopes of getting rid of those dang baby pounds that seem adamant about sticking around. I CANNOT wait for summer to get here to be more active and enjoy the outdoors. I've been pregnant for the last 2 summers, so I feel I have a lot of catching up to do. I am hoping to complete a triathlon this September, but seem to be lacking the motivation lately to train, or even get off the couch really. Between work and my 3 kids, it's hard to find time for myself. I'm thinking this competition is a great way to get me started towards a healthier lifestyle. Bring it on!!!
