WEST VALLEY CITY -- Hundreds of people hoping to lose weight on national television gathered at the Maverik Center in West Valley City Saturday.

"The Biggest Loser" held yet another casting call in Utah. Show hopefuls said they were ready to turn their lives around and get healthy.

"Hopefully I get selected," said Greg Baptist. "If I do then I would be isolated where I can get the training and information that I need so I can turn my life around and become more healthy all the time."

Most of the potential "Biggest Losers" wanted the same thing -- uninterrupted time to learn how to exercise properly and eat right.

One couple trying out together met during a previous audition in September.

"We met standing in line with a bunch of people there and we got engaged in September, said Tiffany Fry of fiancé Tyler Perkins. "We are getting married next Friday."

The happy couple had some advice for the first-time audtioners -- don't be nervous and have fun.
