For Patrick House, it’s never felt so good to be such a big loser. This 28-year old Vicksburg, Mississippi resident came out on top of this NBC reality competition on last night’s finale, defeating Frado Dinten in the final weigh-in by dropping an incredible 181 pounds. As confetti dropped all around him, House was embraced by family members and viewers were left to marvel over the fact that he lost 45.25 percent of his body weight at the start of the season. An unemployed former salesman, The Biggest Loser winner said that winning the series “gives me freedom.” And it also gives him money. House earned $250,000 for the accomplishment.
