Spotlight On: Dawn Ferullo, Erica Castro and Team Orange!

As a Largest Loser community, we would be remiss not to mention the tremendous efforts put forth by the orange team, and the incredible weight loss results achieved by two of its members.

The orange team is also known as the "warrior team" because they truly are the warriors of the program. This group consists of participants who have gone through the Largest Loser program in the past. They were no longer seeing the results that they worked hard for in previous seasons, and they were eager to hash away at Largest Loser again and seek those health and weight loss goals.

The warrior team regulations are similar but different from the competitive red, blue and green teams. Each week, they would attend workouts, weigh ins, and lectures. However, this team was not eligible to win the Largest Loser program as a result of the number of times they have participated in the program. Although this team did not receive formal recognition, there were two outstanding performers who achieved Largest Loser-winning numbers: Dawn Ferullo and Erica Castro.

Dawn Ferullo


In 9 weeks, Dawn lost an impressive 37.8lbs and 18.1% of her total body weight. If the orange team was eligible to win the Largest Loser competition, she would have been our female Largest Loser. We commend Dawn on her tremendous efforts and results, and we hope her journey continues to be a successful and sustainable one!

Erica Castro


Erica's successes are not one to overlook: 32.8lbs lighter and 16.8% total body weight lost! These figures would have put her at female Largest Loser runner up. We are so proud of her and hope she continues to take the appropriate steps in maintaining her healthy lifestyle.

3 cheers for our warriors, indeed!
