My reason(s) for applying for Biggest Loser are:
To change my life; to get motivation; to go shopping ANYWHERE and be the happy person I know I can be instead of sometimes putting on an act.

I first realized I was overweight and needed help when:
I couldn't find clothes that fit me and I would lose my breath constantly.

I hope to lose weight but gain:
My life back and the confidence I know I have but hold off expressing because of my size.

The previous contestant I have found inspiring was (and why?)
Damien; a big boy with a big heart and an even bigger amount of determination- that is what inspires me.

The best part of being on Biggest Loser is:
I have the chance of a lifetime to create a new life and to have every experience be rewarding.

I am preparing myself for this journey by:
Being myself and hoping for the best and looking forward to the challenge of bettering my life.

I think the most difficult part of being on Biggest Loser will be:
Getting back into physical activities and staying mentally stable.

My biggest weakness is:
My height; missing my partner and family and not being able to run.

Some bad habits I would like to get rid of are:
Eating for the sake of it when I am not hungry.

The one thing I want Australia to know about me is that:
I am a giant dyke soon to be on an exercise bike!

I think I will win the Biggest Loser because:
I know I can. I have just as much going for me as anyone else, maybe even more since I strongly believe in myself on this journey.

One thing I have never done because I was overweight and will do once I lose the weight will be to:
Going to Adventure World and actually going on the rides
