Work Week

The contestants will have to go to work each day at Feeding America, and learn to fit in their workouts and bring their healthy meals.

Truck Pull Competition

The contestants will win groceries for one year if they can pull a semi down a track and complete a puzzle at the finish line. Blue team has an obvious advantage with all the big guys on their team. The black team was behind, but not by much. It was amazing to see all those women and Sam pull a 33,000 lb truck.

Blue team used their advantage and pulled it out in a close match to spell “Groceries for a year”.

Weigh-In

Elimination

The black team went to the elimination room and this is how the votes broke down:

Sam voted for Cheryl
Stephanie voted for Cheryl
Cheryl voted for Stephanie
Sherry voted for Sam
Ashley voted for Cheryl

Cheryl was eliminated and went home to lose another 18 lbs. She now weighs 164 lbs and donated her clothes to charity.

The Ultimate Temptation

The winner of this temptation gets to decide it all this week - the new teams for blue vs black and who gets immunity. Without knowing what they had to do to win, they had to decide if they were in or out. Mike and Drea were the only two to play. It was a game of memory. If they didn’t choose the “Choose Teams” card, they had to eat a chocolate chip cookie. If they matched a food item, they got to give the food item to the other person.

Michael ate 2,310 calories and Drea ate 1,320 calories, but Mike found the Golden Ticket, and won the power to choose the teams and immunity.

Black and Blue Teams Chosen

There will be two teams of 6 people, and the extra person will have immunity. Whichever team loses the weigh-in will have teh person with immunity join them.

Black Team

Sam
Cheryl
Drea
Stephanie
Sherri
Ashley

Blue Team

Koli
Darris
Lance
Miggy
Sunshine
Mike

Mike gave O’Neal immunity so he could have a spot on the super strong Blue team. People were mad including Jillian. Do you think Mike should have made the teams more fair or look out for himself like he did?

Team Challenge

The team who pulls their flag to the the roof first will get letters from home. Blue team pulled ahead and won!

Weigh In

Michael lost 15 lbs which shattered Rudy’s old record with 109 lbs in 7 weeks - WOW!

Since blue team lost the weigh-in, they went to the elimination room.

Lance voted for Miggy
Daris voted for Miggy
Miggy voted for Lance
Mike voted for Lance
Sunshine voted for Miggy
Koli voted for Miggy

Miggy Now

Miggy started on the Biggest Loser at 240 lbs and she now weighs 179 lbs, which is an extra 16 lbs since the ranch. She learned to meditate to reduce her stress, which she credits with her weight loss.

Darrell Now

When Darrell started on the Biggest Loser he weighed 413 lbs and now he weighs 293 lbs for a total of 120 lbs!

I think we’ve all been anxious to see how our favorite contestants are doing, so its only a few more days. And, here’s a little preview of what’s to come!

They found out there will be an automatic elimination for the person that falls below the red line and then another two will fall below the yellow line, and one will be eliminated.

Pop Challenge

Each contestant has a slide board (like speed skating), and the person who touches the sides 500 times wins. The top 3 spots wins a prize, but no one knew what the prizes were.  Sam won Gold, Melissa won Silver, and Sunshine won Bronze.

Biathalon Challenge

A combo of cross country skiing and shooting, only in this challenge they will run around, aim their gun and try to take out other contestants lights. The winners of the pop challenge each got to take out one of the lights of another contestant. Sunshine chose 1 for Sam. Melissa chose Sam also for 2 shots. And, Sam gave them right back to Sunshine and Melissa. The winner of this challenge gets immunity.

It came down to the two fathers - O’Neil and Darrell. O’Neil won immunity!

Weigh-In

Elimination

Instead of a vote to determine elimination, Darrell and Cheryl had to compete to stay in the game. They had to keep their flame lit. They had to balance something on their heads in a squat position.

To be continued next week…Uggh!

Melissa went home and lost another 24 lbs.
