Texoma Man Slims Down, Going To LA To Watch Biggest Loser Finale

Texoma Man Slims Down, Going To LA To Watch Biggest Loser Finale

Posted: Dec 8th 2011 By: CMBurnham

The reality TV series Biggest Loser is only days away from its finale. One Texoma man, who is on his own weight loss journey, will be in the audience cheering contestants on.

Once 913 pounds, Earl Kennedy now tips the scale somewhere in the 400s. He's been invited to be in the audience next Tuesday for NBC's live finale of this season's biggest loser. He's tried to get on the show before, but has had some health problems.

He's not giving up. His inspiration is his late daughter McKenzie.

"When I was 913 pounds, I dreamed with my eyes closed when I slept. Being in the 400s now, I dream wide awake," Earl Kennedy said.

Kennedy has never been on a plane before in his life, but says he's ready to make this journey. He takes off early Monday morning.

NBC's Biggest Loser finale airs live in Los Angeles Tuesday. You can watch for Earl in the audience of NBC's Biggest Loser on KTEN starting at 7:00pm.

KTEN's Biggest Loser challenge between Lisanne Anderson and Kris Hair is still going. The two have another three or four weeks. Tune in next Tuesday night for their week 9 weigh in.
