‘Biggest Loser’ Cast Winner Rachel Frederickson Too Thin; Eating Disorder?

The Biggest Loser reality game show cast winner Rachel Frederickson shocked the audience with her "too thin" appearance on the season finale weigh in, leading some to speculate that she might even have an eating disorder. But this year's biggest winner says that she is healthy and doing fine, though she may have over done it in preparation for the win.

No doubt Rachel Frederickson's party was a little rained on by all the remarks that she has lost too much weight in order to win 250K, but she did have that giant check to keep her thoughts from turning too dark.

Her coach on the show Dolvett Quince was initially shocked says Huffington Post, when Rachel first reveled rail thin frame (via TV Grapevine):

"The first thing that went through my mind was, 'That's just too much.'"

But after some reflection, Dolvett decided to support Rachel on his Facebook page:

"Biggest Loser is a journey which has its ups and downs. Please try not to look at one slice of Rachel's journey and come to broad conclusions. Rachel's health is, and always has been, my main concern and her journey to good health has not yet ended!!"

Season 5 winner Ali Vincent stressed to People that the world shouldn't judge Rachel as strange or broken, because she was dedicated enough to win (via TV Grapevine):

"Rachel chose to win. I know what it's like. I gave it every single thing I had. I was working out from 10 in the morning to 2 in the morning. Is that healthy? No! But it's a conscious, adult decision to win. I weighed 122 pounds at the finale. I took a drink of water and I gained weight back."

Frederickson told People that she may have gotten carried away going for the win, but she is focused on the future not her past (via TV Grapevine):

"Maybe I was a little too enthusiastic in my training to get to the finale. Truly, the sky is the limit. I'm very, very excited about the future."
