"The Biggest Loser" finale brought the 10th season to a close as Patrick House earned the $250,000 prize.At the start of the two-hour finale, the contestants were down to the final four: Patrick House (starting weight 400 lbs), Frado Dinten (367 lbs), Elizabeth Ruiz (244 lbs) and Ada Wong (258 lbs).
It was revealed right off the bat that the viewers chose Ada to continue on to the final three with Patrick and Frado, who were already in the finals. Before they got to the finals, though, they did weigh-ins with the previous contestants for the at-home prize. Adam Hurtado takes an early lead, having lost 45% of his starting weight, then Rick Deroque takes over with his 47%. But finally Mark Pinkhasovich wins the at-home prize with over 50% of his starting weight lost. That is just astounding.
The finalists finally get to have their final weigh-ins. Frado comes in at 205, for a loss of 162 lbs, which is 44% percent. Ada comes in at 159 lbs, for a loss of 99 lbs and 38%. So it's down to Patrick. He weighs in at 219, for a loss of 189 lbs, 47% and the win.
What did you think? Did you pick Patrick as the winner?

Congrats to Patrick. I believe that he now owes Ada a new car for letting him win the one on the show.
I AM VERY PROUD AND HAPPY FOR PATRICK AND ALL THE HARD WORK HE DID TO GET WHERE HE IS NOW.GOD BLESS .
I thought Patrick had a great chance but thought any of the three did. I'm especially glad he won because of the debt he was under.
There seemed to be a lot of missed or misunderstood cues and stage directions throughout the program.
Congrats to all the contestants. Everyone should be proud of themselves. I was so pleased to see everyone getting along and had a genuine concern for each other. Unlike a previous season, with Heba, her husband and the lawyer lady. They were down right nasty contestants. I didn't enjoy watching that!
Patrick is a real southern boy. Thanked "Mr. Roker" on the Today Show this morning. Keep up the good work and congratulations on the new job.
