Ada Wong came in third in last night’s The Biggest Loser Season 10 finale. Although she didn’t win, she was a fan favorite and very inspiring. The previous week, she won America’s Vote to put her in the finals. Ada did it again in the finale as the overwhelming winner of America’s vote. During the time on the show, the 27 year old lost 99 pounds (38.37% of her weight). Her weight went from 258 to 159 pounds. She left her stamp on show with the fastest Biggest Loser marathon time for a female at 4:38:48 (a record she really wanted to have). Besides breaking the record, Ada Wong opened up to her family about how they make her feel like a failure. Her mother begins to cry while watching Ada’s transformation on the ranch. Ada hopes her relationship with her parents will get stronger.

More about Ada Wong
Ada has struggled with weight her entire life, and was shy growing up in Gilroy, California, with her younger brother and parents, who emigrated from China. Ridiculed about her weight and with no encouraging and supportive people around her, she turned to food for comfort. As she went through her school years, her personality blossomed and she excelled as a student. Her hard work continued at the University of San Francisco, where Ada earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a focus on international business. Now 27 years old and 258 pounds, Ada hopes losing weight will allow her to feel more confident, feel good about her life, and finally be happy. She looks forward to shopping for clothes when she loses weight, as well as snowboarding, rock climbing and even running a marathon.
