Rikeâstar of the eighth season of The Biggest Loserâtells all in this honest, openhearted tale of tragedy and healing. She married Rick Rike in July 2003: "So began our journey together in the greatest partnership that ever was." Their dream ended on October 13, 2006, when Rick; Abby's daughter, Macy, 5; and their two-week-old son, Caleb, were killed on a Texas road. "I was never angry," she says, but healing was another story. She went back to work three months later, joined a poker league, earned a master's degree, and moved to Louisiana. After nearly three years of struggle, Abby made it onto TBL. "The person on that scale was broken, and that's what I was there to fix." Despite being eliminated, she continued to work out and eventually lost 100 pounds. Abby's journey from tragedy to health (and thinness) is inspiring, the details of TBL fascinating, her exuberance and passion invigorating. Letters between Abby and Rick, as well as Facebook entries and eulogies, are included.
