Biggest Loser Black Team Dominates!
Hi Everyone!
Tonight’s episode started with each of the trainers taking their team to a different kind of workout. Bob took his team to a gym where they teach a Cirque de Soleil-type workout involving hanging from a trapeze or balancing with a ribbon. As you could imagine, this wasn’t easy to do and it wasn’t very pretty looking either!
Jillian took her team to an outward bound-type workout. It involved climbing and overcoming any height fears. Jillian used the experience to help Michelle and her mom Renee bond. Coleen overcame her extreme fear of height–better her than me! More hugs and tears all around.
Next Bob had his team learn how to defend themselves against an attacker. Of course, Heba kicked the attacker’s butt and then in her usual “showoff” way, she pretended to spit on him. Just what you’d expect her to do.
The contestants had their six week check-in with Dr. H. Since everyone is working out and losing weight, Dr. H. was able to give good news all around. I wonder what my “body” age is? I’m thinking its improved since I’m working out so much lately. I’m probably better off not knowing, ya think? If I was told that my body’s age is older than it really is I’d probably go eat a bag of chips!
Tonight’s challenge was a balancing act. The contestants had to balance and walk around on a ring over water. Every complete revolution around the circle resulted in a point. The first team to reach 25 points wins the challenge and a video from home. If a someone falls off, they are out. The only way players can get back into the game is if everyone (on both teams) falls off. Well, very early on, all the blue team falls off. Coleen falls off from the black team leaving Michelle, Renee and Phil. They make it around for 15 points before Michelle falls off. Phil falls off at 16 points. Renee keeps going and going and finishes the challenge herself bringing the victory to the Black Team. Vicky saying that the challenge was lame made her look like a poor loser. I think even Brady was embarassed for her.
The black team’s prize of being able to talk to their families through a live video feed was, of course, emotional and filled with happy tears. Thank goodness all the “sweetness” on Biggest Loser doesn’t result in calorie gain!
The last chance workout had Jillian screaming and contestants crying and sweating. In other words, business as usual. Is it really necessary to take it this far?
Brady and Amy ran to Heba to squeal that Phil tried to influence them and get them to vote her off. The question is who really is “playing” who? Are Amy and Brady using Heba? Heba needs to realize that there are two of them and only one of her.
Finally, it’s time for the weigh in’s. Renee lost 7 pounds. Michelle lost 7 pounds. Coleen lost 8 pounds. Phil lost 7 pounds. The black team lost a total of 29 pounds this week! Amy C. lost 6 pounds. Heba lost 5 pounds. Vicky lost 8 pounds. Amy P. lost 2 pounds. Yikes! What happened there? Brady lost 3 pounds. Bob and his team were shocked. This gave the blue team a total of 24 pounds but remember they have an extra person. Black team wins the weigh in, so the blue team must send home one of its members. Hmm, I wonder who it will be?
Since Brady, Amy C. and Heba are an alliance they all vote to eliminate Amy P. Coleen and Amy P. vote to eliminate Brady and break up the alliance, but of course they don’t have enough votes. Amy P. is out the door. So now here’s an interesting thought brought up by my DH. He thinks that Brady is deliberately NOT losing weight. Since he knew that he had the votes to stay, he didn’t lose as much as he could so that later on he can have a huge weight loss. I’m not sure if that is even possible, but as I said, the DH thinks it is. I guess we shall see.
Amy P. looks really pretty and happy off the ranch and back with her family. Good for her!
Here’s hoping you have a great week! Love bloggergal1
