‘The Biggest Loser’ trainer Erica Lugo reveals how she lost 160 lbs. – and it’s something we all can do
When Erica Lugo set out on her weight loss journey a few years ago, she had no idea that documenting her every move on Instagram would then lead her to become a trainer on The Biggest Loser reboot this season. Her coaching style is the epitome of practice what you preach for her contestants. “I'm the first trainer to definitely go through a transformation like [the contestants],” she tells HOLA! USA. “I weighed 322 pounds, and about five years ago, I lost 160 pounds. I lost 122 pounds in 13 months and then the last 40 pounds took six or seven months. [Growing up] we communicated and showed love through food. I even remember my grandma flying in from Texas, and she would always bring her tamales as her carry on.”
