On this season of “The Biggest Loser” Mo is the seemingly intimidating guys who has a heart of gold and would like to help more people, but his weight is holding him back. Mo is 56, and lives in Louisville, Kentucky.

Mo may seem intimidating with his size and deep voice, but is really just a big teddy bear. Mo spends almost all of his time working with and dealing with the problems of others. He is a CEO and founder of a youth organization where he works diligently with impoverished youth in the community, focusing on academic excellence, physical exercise, athletic training and competition. He has been featured in the news and in local newspapers for being such an inspiration to the youth in his community.

Mo received college scholarships for Division I football and basketball, but has struggled with his weight over the past 20 years. He feels that if he is successful in losing weight he will set an example for his family members who are overweight, and for the youth that he works with to become healthy and fit. With the help of "The Biggest Loser," he can prove to the youth of Louisville once and for all that with hard work and determination, you can achieve anything you put your mind to.

Watch the premier of “The Biggest Loser” September 15th 8/7c on NBC
