Olivia Ward wins ‘Biggest loser’ title and $250,000
May 26th, 2011 - 12:17 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattNew York, May 25 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Olivia Ward won the title of the show The Biggest Loser. For her prize, Ward will walk away with a cash of $250,000. Ward also enjoyed another benefit alongside the cash prize- losing almost half her starting weight on the show.
Before the show, Ward was weighing a staggering 261lbs but after strict exercise regimen and diet, Ward weighed 129lbs less of that on the final day of the show. The 35-year-old will welcome the loss of weight because her doctor had earlier warned her that unless she did something about her weight, she will never be able to become a mother in her life. She is currently weighing 132lbs and she is confident that she will be able to have a child again.
After winning the title, Ward spoke to the OK! Magazine. She told the magazine that, “I live in New York and my friends are very active. I always felt a little left out. I didn’t even realize how much I was missing. Now to be included and feel comfortable in my own skin while I’m doing all of these activities has just been priceless.”
Ward is an opera singer and she was on the show with her sister Hannah Curlee. Hannah was second in the contest with Irene Alvarado completing the top three list.
