Sonya Jones seemed to be a happy, fun-loving woman. Few would have guessed that a lifetime of battling morbid obesity (stemming from an unfortunate incident in junior high) had left her hating the person she was . . . until God used a wholly unexpected (and unconventional) journey to break and dispel the power of that incident forever-finally freeing her to celebrate God's unique plan for her life!
In 44 Lessons from a Loser, Jones shares how her time on NBC's hit Reality TV show, The Biggest Loser, enabled her to shed a lot of excess physical weight-along with the even greater burden of a lifetime of shame and hatred for who she was. As you'll discover, Jones has a special knack for hilariously conveying stories of the most bizarre incidents that could happen only to her! Once your laughter subsides however, you'll uncover underlying lessons in each chapter that will help you see the silver lining in every cloud of your own!
While Jones' journey may have been a little more memorable than most (appearing on national television with 283 pounds stuffed into spandex and a sports bra is not for everyone), yours is no less important. That's why you'll find in these pages a life-changing message of hope, healing, and wholeness that will inspire you to embark on a similar journey for yourself.
Knowing that, as a physical education teacher, she should be the model of health and fitness, Jones felt like a hypocrite as she neared 300 pounds in 2014. Six months later, she stepped onto the scale (and into the hearts of millions of Americans)-dropping a whopping 144 pounds to lose 50.88% of her total body weight on national television.
Prior to her Biggest Loser journey, Jones earned a degree in Physical Education from Greenville University (in Greenville, Illinois-where she was inducted into the Athletic Hall of Fame in 2018) along with graduate degrees in Educational Leadership and Administration from the University of Illinois at Springfield..
A former semi-professional athlete (two-time Collegiate All-American in fastpitch softball), Jones spent nearly two decades in education before taking her current position as an Outreach Representative for HSHS Medical Group in central Illinois. She is a certified (and widely-sought) speaker with the John Maxwell Team. When not engaged in public speaking all over the country-she enjoys playing softball, spending quality time with friends and family, and pursuing her most recent interest: rescuing pit bulls.
