As reported yesterday here on the website, Kim Neilson, who appeared for TNA Wrestling from 2002 to 2004 as Desire, is a contestant on the upcoming season of the NBC reality television series The Biggest Loser premiering January 3, 2012. She is billed as a former professional wrestler and the show's producers are looking to air footage of her time in the wrestling promotion. They contacted a YouTube account featuring footage of her in TNA and were directed to the promotion.

She became pregnant with her third child, stopped exercising and started overeating. Now a single mother of three at age 38, Neilson weighs 252 pounds and says she is tired of hiding from fans, friends and family because of the way she looks.
