Ali Vincent told everyone in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/01\/biggest-loser-episode-4\/\" title=\"Ali Biggest Loser\" target=\"_blank\">week 4 <\/a>during her elimination with mom, Bette-Sue, that she would be the Biggest Loser. At the time, she meant the at-home winner, not knowing of a twist that would invite all the eliminated players back to the ranch. She won that weigh-in, and all weigh-ins since, and earned a spot back at the Biggest Loser ranch.Ali had two goals when she started Biggest Loser- to wear sleeveless shirts and to become the first female Biggest Loser. With unprecedented determination and hard work, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/03\/biggest-loser-ali\/\" title=\"Ali Biggest Loser\" target=\"_blank\">Ali<\/a> can mark off both of these from her to-do list. When host Alison informed Ali that she only needed to lose 106 pounds to beat the weight-loss giant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/04\/interview-with-biggest-losers-roger-schultz\/\" title=\"Roger Schultz\" target=\"_blank\">Roger<\/a>, the crowd went nuts inside that studio. If you&#8217;ll remember, Ali&#8217;s last weigh-in at the ranch was 99 pounds- meaning she had to lose only six pounds in the three weeks at home. One look at her in that knock-out dress, and everyone in there knew she owned that weigh in. Trainer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/Bob_Harper\/\" title=\"Bob Harper Biggest Loser\" target=\"_blank\">Bob Harper<\/a> was heard saying that as soon as she walked out onto the stage, he knew she had won. She lost a total of 112 pounds.Ali&#8217;s win is not only a major life-changing accomplishment for herself, but for women everywhere. A girl did it. She beat some very big boys. She serves as an inspiration to women everywhere that nothing can stand in your way. Ali continually said last night &#8220;Believe It, Be It.&#8221; It&#8217;s a mantra I expect to hear flying out of the mouth of women.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/ali-wins-biggest-loser.JPG\" title=\"Ali Vincent Biggest Loer\" alt=\"Ali Vincent Biggest Loer\" align=\"middle\" height=\"240\" width=\"359\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Her trainer, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/Jillian_Michaels\/\" title=\"Jillian Michaels Biggest Loser\" target=\"_blank\">Jillian Michaels<\/a>, was over the moon with joy at Ali&#8217;s amazing win. She screamed &#8220;It&#8217;s a Girl!&#8221; And while there won&#8217;t be any cigars, she assured they would celebrate with carrots and champagne! Bette-Sue, Ali&#8217;s mother and Biggest Loser teammate, looked as proud as a mother could.
