Before and After Results In total, Maggie lost 70 pounds and went from weighing 239 pounds down to 169 pounds-- and she did this all in around 5 months. But what they don't tell you on the show is how much muscle each contestant gains. Maggie actually added 14 pounds of muscle during the competition, so She actually lost 84 pounds of body fat! For every pound of muscle you add, you increase your metabolism about 30-50 calories per day. By adding muscle as you lose weight, you decrease the risk of gaining the weight back and you increase your body's ability to continue to burn fat. Double Sweet!!! Maggie is such a smart, cool and hard working person, and I know she's headed for big things. And, I'm so glad I had the opportunity to work with her.
When she was voted off the show, she continued working out like a mad woman. The video clip only shows a small taste of her hardcore workout routine and her life back at home after leaving the ranch. P.S. I make a 5 second cameo in the video montage. Insider Workout Secret In the Video! Here's a little inside secret that is hard to pick up just by looking at the video. One of my friends, made a comment that they wish they had showed more of my training and exercise regimen with Maggie and not just me giving her a "Hive 5" after she climbed up the stairs. But what is hard to make out in the video is the fact that The Staircase is 9 Flights Straight UP. In addition, Maggie and I would workout on that 9 flight staircase for 60-90 minutes at a time. I was always amazed by her work ethic and determination. She never quit on any workouts and always pushed herself to the limit. Even when she left the ranch, she busted her butt in the gym 3-4 hours a day while controlling her calories and eating healthy foods. She truly is a great weight loss success story!
Here's a brief intro of where Maggie started- Profile of Maggie from The Biggest Loser The Biggest Loser airs Tuesday nights on NBC at 8 PM Eastern/ 7 PM Central time. It's one of my favorite reality television shows, and I think it can motivate people to lose weight and get in shape. I'm sure there will be another great weight loss success story in each additional season. I hope you get inspired and I hope to see you back here soon! Yours in Health,
