The Clark Atlanta University alum appeared on the ABC weight loss reality show in 2014 during its fourth season.
“I saw an ad for ‘Biggest Loser’ on a commercial,” she told Rare.us in 2018 about getting on the show. “They had just left Atlanta, their last stop was in Cleveland. I booked a ticket and I didn’t get picked for ‘Biggest Loser’ but they forwarded my information to ‘Extreme.’
“ ‘Extreme Weight Loss’ called me and literally, every footstep since then has been God,” she added. “I prayed over that application before I sent it off. I prayed every step of the way.”
She continued her health journey in recent years by leading group dance workout classes.
Mallory went viral in 2018 with a video of her dancing in a sports bra and leggings with the extra skin on her stomach proudly on display.
“Extreme Weight Loss” Season 5 alum Kim Williams Maxile remembered Mallory in an Instagram tribute on Nov. 9.
“Rest in Love sis,” she captioned a video of her and Mallory. “To my fellow Extreme Weight Loss @extweightloss sis, @brandimallory you will be missed. I’ll never forget while I was at boot camp for season 5 we watched your season and it inspired us to keep going. “
“You truly made an impact on this world with your zest and your passion for body positivity. I’m blessed to have gotten to experienced you in this world,” Maxile added.
Mallory made her final Instagram post Nov. 3 in which she taste-tested a Lucy Rose apple.
The body-positive motivational speaker was unimpressed to find that the inside of the apple wasn’t naturally red like it was supposed to be.
