'The Biggest Loser''s Amanda Cried the Night of her Prom
Amanda Arlauskas is a typical teenager who was looking forward to her high school prom. But when the time came, she was a size 20 and didn't want to wear a "fat dress" to the dance.
The 19-year-old from Butler, NJ is a patient care technician, who is studying to be a registered nurse, but feels that her outward appearance would hinder her career path in the health-care profession. She turned to "The Biggest Loser" to help her find her way back to a healthy life of her own.
ET talked to Amanda about the pressure she feels since America voted her on to the show and her strategy to stay on the ranch.
