Terrance, Alisa's husband, was completely unaware of his wife's dramatic transformation as she lost a whopping 50 pounds! Rachael and the staff decided to go above and beyond for Lisa when she contacted the Rachael Ray Show to request dieting advice.

To honor her significant weight loss, they gave her the opportunity to appear on the show and give her a complete makeover.

When Terrance returned from deployment, Alisa had planned to surprise him with her new look, but he informed her that he was delayed and would be taking a later flight. The plan's modification left Alisa feeling very let down.

But as you can see, Terrance was also lying. Producers of the show had tracked him down covertly and had prepared a tremendous surprise for Alisa.

Rachael showed Alisa her makeover in the mirror while the program was being filmed on stage, and then instructed her to turn around.

Alisa Beal is a mother of two and a spouse of the army. Similar to Terrance Beal, the 1st Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment at Fort Bragg had been sent to South Korea.

The military pair is well-known because Alisa, his wife, made an appearance on the Rachael Ray Show to reduce weight in anticipation of surprising her husband, who will be returning home after a leave of absence.

Beal watched his wife tape an episode of "The Rachael Ray Show" across the street while he waited patiently in a conference room in New York last week.

Alisa Beal was a combination of anticipation and disappointment in the studio. Alisa Beal was disappointed to find her husband absent because she had been informed he would take a later trip and not return the day before as originally anticipated.

She was thrilled to be the subject of a makeover that she anticipated would surprise her husband when he arrived back in Fort Bragg on the show. When Alisa Beal found out that her husband's trip would be delayed, she stated, "I was a little bummed out."
