Biggest Loser WINNER Season 6 is Michelle Aguilar (Photos)

The season six finale of The Biggest Loser: Families was broadcast last night from Hollywood. A very pregnant Alison Sweeney hosted the live two hour show. She was joined on stage by personal trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels who led the participants throughout their twelve weeks on The Biggest Loser campus.

The $250,000 winner is 26 year old Michelle Aguilar of Dallas who lost 110 pounds from a starting weight of 242 for a weight loss percentage of 45.45. Coming in second place in this category was Ed Brantley, 31 year old chef from Raleigh, N.C. He started at 335 and lost 139 pounds for a weight loss percentage of 41.49. Third place finisher was Vicky Vilcan, a 37 year old nurse from Houma, LA. Her starting weight was 246 and she was able to shed 101 pounds for percentage of weight loss of 41.06.

Interestingly, home viewers got a chance to decided whether Ed Brantley or his wife Heba Salama would be vying for top prize, alongside Vicky and Michelle. Ed made a plea to home viewers to vote in his wife but they put Ed in the finale by an 84% landslide.

The vote was likely a shout out from America that Heba, who clearly took charge of the blue team tactics, was a heavy handed player who used a bulldozer strategy throughout the competition. As it turns out, if Heba had been voted into the top category she would have won the competition, but instead won the $100,000 prize. Salama, a 30 year old pharmaceutical sales rep from Raleigh, N.C., started out at 294 and was able to shed 138 pounds for a percentage of weight loss of 46.90.

Heba said, "Everything happens for a reason, we have been so lucky to be on this show that honestly, because we were never here for a paycheck I just wanted the opportunity to be a finalist."
