All of the contestants from season ten will return for the finale to weigh in one last time and show America how much weight they’ve lost since the beginning of their weight-loss journeys.

The transformations will be profound, not just for the finalists, but also for the eliminated contestants who all continued to lose weight after returning home from “The Biggest Loser” ranch. Those returning will also include the contestants who lost the seven-city challenge in the premiere episode and never made it to the ranch, but continued their weight loss journeys at home.

In the most recent episode that aired on December 7, Alfredo “Frado” Dinten (Staten Island, New York) and Patrick House (Vicksburg, Mississippi) weighed in above the yellow line, securing their spots as two of this season’s three finalists.

Contestants Elizabeth Ruiz (Lawrence, Massachusetts) and Ada Wong (Gilroy, California) fell below the yellow line, leaving America to choose between them to determine the third place finalist competing alongside Frado and Patrick for the $250,000 grand prize. Viewers can vote now through Monday, December 13 at 9:00 a.m. ET either online at www.nbc.com or by text (text ELIZABETH or ADA to 33088) -- $.99 charge per text message vote, plus additional message and data rates may apply).

Then it’s the moment viewers have been waiting for, when one of the three finalists will be named this season’s “Biggest Loser” and win the coveted grand prize of $250,000!
