'Extreme Weight Loss': 29-Year-Old Makeup Artist's Shocking Transformation

On "Extreme Weight Loss," Brandi, a 29-year-old makeup artist from Atlanta made the transformation of a lifetime.

Brandi Mallory competed in beauty pageants as a young girl, began to put on weight at that time. After getting a lot of criticism in the pageant world, she decided to quit, and unfortunately, continued to struggle with her weight, which only got worse over the years.

As WOTV notes, Brandi finally decided to write in to Chris after she reached 329 pounds.

Luckily, Brandi was able to lose 151 pounds and even complete a half Ironman... pretty impressive.

That's a 70.3 mile long race, which includes biking, swimming, and running in under 8 hours.

Brandi now says she wants to inspire others to lose weight and thanked Chris Powell for giving her the opportunity of a lifetime.
