Shay Sorrells, a social worker who weighs 476 lbs., making her the largest "Biggest Loser" contestant ever.
Amanda Arlauskas, the 19-year-old chosen by voters during last season's finale to participate, is also on board.

This is a great program even if JD Roth's "fun house" fingerprints are on it. Now everyone is "beautiful" as people, but ever notice each season has someone on it that is hot when they are the "after"? I wonder who it is this year? Hmmmanda?
Is NBC ripping off FOX's formula of unfair gameplay? They're ripping off Hells Kitchen a little bit. Hells Kitchen brought Heather and Robert back. Now Biggest Loser brings back Daniel. Bringing back contestants can make gameplay unfair.
I'm not sure bringing Daniel back is going to give him an advantage as far as the game goes. Since he's already been losing weight, he's going to lose at a much slower pace than the people who are just starting out.
Love this show but bringing back Daniel is a MISTAKE! He had his chance, now let someone else have theirs.
I think it's the right thing to do bringing Daniel back after being 'cheated' out of last seasons win.
The whole point of Biggest Loser is to lose weight in a healthy way not to become anorexic in the weeks before the final to gain the win.
JT Hutt, what do you mean by your comment?
I think bringing Daniel back was a good and bad idea. And I also agree because he's been at it for so long he will have trouble losing alot of weight.
