Pete Thomas
Contestant and Winner of Losing the Highest Percentage of Weight

The Biggest Loser - Season 2

PETE THOMAS BIO

In November 2005, Pete Thomas walked away from the finale of NBC’s The Biggest Loser a winner - and a loser. He won $100,000 for losing the most weight of all the contestants that season. What he lost was 185 pounds in only nine short months – most of which he lost at home after being “voted off” by the other contestants.

At his largest, Thomas tipped the scales at over 416lbs. As a child, Pete never learned about nutrition and exercise due to his transient lifestyle – a result of his mother’s serious mental illness. Several times as a young child, he was left alone or with his younger sister for weeks at a time, forced to find food wherever he could. Both Pete and his sister were put into foster care.

“Being on The Biggest Loser really saved my life,” Pete says. The knowledge he gained revolutionized the way he eats and exercises, so that now, five years after being voted off the show, he has successfully kept the weight off.

Pete's amazing energy, endlessly upbeat tone and extremely positive message have transformed him into a highly skilled TV personality, teacher, certified trainer, and a much sought-after motivational speaker to groups and corporations around the country Five years later, Pete has emerged as the Permanent Weight-Loss Guru, and now dedicates his life to helping others transform their lives as well.

“My mission is to help eradicate America’s obesity epidemic,” Pete states. To this end, Pete has developed and teaches a 10-week permanent weight-loss program entitled, Lose It Fast, Lose It Forever™ (LIF2). Since 2007, hundreds of students have lost thousands of combined pounds, and regularly come back to “team teach” Pete’s newest students. Of the former Biggest Loser contestants, only Pete Thomas has personally created other “Biggest Losers” through his teaching and coaching programs.

Pete has appeared on ABC’s The View, The 700 Club, and eXtra as well as being featured in People Magazine, Runners World, TV Guide, inTouch Weekly and Real Health. In addition, Thomas has completed a full triathlon, full marathon and several half-marathons since his time on The Biggest Loser.

As a full time motivational speaker, weight-loss coach and consultant, Pete now travels and spreads his “Winning Principles” to organizations nationwide through www.WinningMan.com.
