'The Biggest Loser' Holds a Casting Call in Raleigh

RALEIGH -- Struggling with weight loss? You could have a shot at being on NBC's "The Biggest Loser."

They're holding a casting on Saturday in Raleigh at the Planet Fitness off Six Forks Road.

The line was backing up on Saturday morning two hours before doors even opened.

Two show hopefuls said this could be life-changing.

"Just to see someone that they can relate to and going through the struggle of having this weight loss. It is a battle," said one hopeful contestant.

"It's something I want to do for my kid. I don't need to be heavy breathing on the couch and the kid wants to crawl around and I'm like I have to do this again. I don't want to be that guy. I want to be the dad that goes outside and plays baseball for hours until they fall asleep," said another hopeful contestant.

Producers are looking for a team of two, so couples, friends or siblings who need to lose 80 or more pounds.

Casting runs through Saturday afternoon. All candidates must be at least 18 years old.
