Biggest Loser brings back Rocco!
Hi Everybody!
I hope you are enjoying your weekend! This week’s Biggest Loser is right before Thanksgiving. So naturally it will feature NFL stars. Jerry Rice and Steve Young will be making an appearance. They put the contestants through some NFL-style drills.
Also making another appearance on Biggest Loser this week is our favorite cutie chef Rocco DiSpirito. He’s going to teach our contestants how to make Thanksgiving dinner with fewer calories. I know I’ll be watching and taking notes. My favorite part of Thanksgiving dinner is the stuffing/dressing. There goes a pound or two!
Obviously, Renee and Michelle are in a bit of trouble this week since they are so much in the minority. I don’t think it should be too hard for them to get Amy on their side. That would even up the votes. Since Coleen is gone and she was my favorite I’ll have to switch to Michelle. I would be cheering for Amy but she really annoyed me last week when she voted out my Coleen. I sure hope Vicky doesn’t win this thing!
Talk to you on Tuesday….stay tuned….Bloggergal1
The Biggest Losers Sweatin’ to the 80’s
Hi Everybody,
This week’s Biggest Loser started with Vicky’s reaction to Amy voting out Brady. There was a lot of bleeped words. I think even Heba is looking a little frightened of Vicky. Trainer Bob was dismayed to realize that his Blue team is falling apart. Vicky and Amy aren’t speaking and Trainer Bob is concerned that this will lead to their demise.
As promised, its 80’s week on the show. All the contestants got decked out in 80’s garb–leg warmers, headbands, etc. and then headed to 80’s style workouts. Jillian took her Black team to meet with a break dancer. I think they did a really good job learning. They were relaxed, had fun and looked great. Next Bob’s team had a workout 80’s style. I don’t know about you, but they just looked embarrassingly bad. It’s weird how all the uncoordinated contestants ended up on the same team.
Today’s challenge involved 80’s trivia and holding up weight. If you answer the trivia question incorrectly, water is added to your barrel and increases the amount of weight you are holding up. If you answer the trivia question correctly you get to pick who you want water added to. The last one standing wins some nice prizes and one choice prize. The choice is $5,000 cash or add 1 penalty pound to whichever contestant you choose. Ed ended up having water added to his bucket twice and so he was the first one out of the competition. Amy was the second one to let go. I thought that was strange because she didn’t even have extra water added to her bucket. Coleen was next (extra water added twice), followed by Vicky (water added once), then Heba (water added at least twice). The last two remaining were mother Renee and daughter Michelle. Michelle asks her mom to let go and promises to buy her a purse. Renee lets Michelle win.
Trainer Bob continues to try to mend the riff in the Blue team. They aren’t too enthusiastic about listening to him. Trainer Jillian works her Black team’s butts off because she knows they don’t have the numbers if they end up below the yellow line. Amy ends up apologizing to Vicky for voting off Brady. I sure hope she’s playing her. Blue team’s last chance workout is extra tough because Bob is convinced that Michelle will use the 1 pound penalty on a member of his team.
Before the weigh-in, Allison asks Michelle her choice between the $5,000 cash and giving someone a 1 pound penalty. Michelle decides to give the 1 pound penalty. Personally, I would have taken the $5,000. I don’t think 1 pound is enough to give up all that money, but we’ll see soon enough. Michelle chooses to give Vicky the 1 pound penalty.
Weigh-ins: Michelle: 194 – 8 = 186 pounds (8 pound loss) Renee: 215 – 8 = 207 pounds (8 pound loss) Ed: 273 – 11 = 262 pounds (11 pound loss) Heba: 238 – 7 = 231 pounds (7 pound loss) Coleen: 170 – 3 = 167 pounds (3 pound loss) Shucks, I love Coleen! Amy: 181 – 8 = 173 pounds (8 pound loss) Once again, Amy is the Biggest Loser. VIcky: 193 – 6 = 187 pounds (6 pound loss plus a 1 pound penalty). The two competitors below the yellow line are Vicky and Coleen. If the votes go along Team lines, Coleen will be voted out. But, it comes down to Amy once again. Will she stick with the Blue and vote Coleen out? Or will she go after Vicky? I’m sure you know how I feel and I think I know how you feel! Amy, please get Vicky out of there, please!!!
Michelle votes to eliminate Vicky. Renee votes to eliminate Vicky. Ed votes to eliminate Coleen. Heba votes to eliminate Coleen. Amy once again decides the elimination. Coleen is <sadly> eliminated. Darn, I really wanted her to make it to the end. I really don’t understand why Amy would vote Coleen off rather than the witch Vicky. If next week, the bottom two are Amy and Heba…who does Amy think Vicky and Ed will vote to eliminate? Same’s true if the bottom two are Amy and Ed or Amy and Vicky. I hope she knows what she’s doing!
Stay tuned and have an excellent week…Bloggergal1
