OKLAHOMA CITY — A 40-year-old Broken Arrow man will be honored by the Oklahoma Legislature for being “The Biggest Loser.”
Danny Cahill lost 239 pounds in less than seven months, the most weight ever by a contestant on the NBC television program “The Biggest Loser.” Cahill was named the winner of the reality show competition in 2009.
The Oklahoma Senate on Tuesday will read a resolution passed last week honoring Cahill for his achievement.
