As revealed, The Biggest Loser Season 16 cast will include Gina Haddon of Rowlett, a former cheerleader as well as a cheerleading coach. According to Haddon, she was "always the bigger girl, and then in high school when I was 15 or 16, I was the fat girl," she said in her official bio. Currently weighing 41 and 242 pounds, Haddon would now want to exclude all the excess weight and be a healthier person in order to become a much better example to her two children, aged 15 and all. Haddon presently generates her income as a photographer and as a makeup artist.
