Rulon Gardner (2000)


USA's Rulon Gardner waves the American flag following his gold medal win against three-time Olympic gold medalist Alexandre Kareline, of Russia, in the Greco-Roman 130 kg final wrestling match at the XXVII Summer Games in Sydney in September 2000. Ten years after winning the gold medal at the Sydney Olympics, Rulon Gardner continued to eat as if he was still training. When his weight ballooned to 474 pounds, Garnder realized he needed to make a change. He's now competing on NBC's "The Biggest Loser."(AP Photo/Katsumi Kasahara, File)
