Yay! It’s Biggest Loser Season 8 Finale!
Tonight’s show opens with a recap of the contestant and the season.
Next, who did America vote in to compete for the final prize – Amanda or Liz?
America originally voted Amanda in as their choice for this season and they voted her in as the 3rd finalist again tonight! Personally I love Amanda and want her to win!
Alison brings Jillian and Bob out and they discuss a few highlights of the season.
Next the previously eliminated contestant would hop on the scale to compete for the $100,000 at home prize.

Congrats on the weight loss and the $100,000 Rebecca!
Everyone looks absolutely amazing!
Next Alison, Jillian and Bob surprise America’s beloved Shay with a great opportunity. Subway wants to invite Shay to the Biggest Loser Season 9 Finale. They are offering her #1000 for every lb that she loses between now and then. Her current weight is 304, so we could see a HUGE loss for Shay and a HUGE check for her at Season 9 Finale. Way to go Shay! All of America is behind you and we want to see you succeed!
Surprise Proposal!
Antoine proposes to contestant Alexandra (they had been dating since they left the Ranch) and she says yes! Yay! Congrats you two!
