Episode summaries
Overview

This marks the 18th season of the Biggest Loser.

These 265 people have one thing in common. They’re fat. Ryan talks about his starting weight of 330. Dana is like, “175.” Matt M says, “I’m 310 pounds.” David says he weighs 756 lbs. Kelly Mac talks about how she wants to stay and that she could go home. The music plays. Mike is running slowly on the treadmill. Also, 255 of the contestants are former contestants that have gained almost, or all of their weight back. If not, MORE (ex. Chism 361-391). However, there are 8 baseball players and 2 family members of contestants who gained weight. This season features every former winner: Ryan (season 1), Matt H (season 2), Erik (season 3), Bill (season 4), Ali (season 5), Michelle (season 6), Helen (season 7), Danny (season 8), Michael V (season 9), Patrick (season 10), Olivia (season 11), John (season 12), Jeremy (season 13), Danni (season 14), Rachel (season 15), Toma (season 16), and Roberto (Season 17). There are 25 people weighing in at 500+ lbs, including David L (756), Arthur (746), Woody (682), Dane (627), Rob (601), Patrick H (600), Ben (596), Mikey (588), Paul (584), Shay (576), Scott (566), Kevin (562), Ruben (562), Michael V (557), Daniel (they 554), Kim (546), Trumbo (544), Syndergaard (534), Helen (527), Erik (516), Schwarber (512), Grant Green (510), Rudy (507), Aybar (502), and Mo (500). This season features Season 13 winner Jeremy Britt, who previously weighed in at 596 at the start of season 18, and was not a former athlete, or medically cleared for the show. Jeremy Britt, the season 13 winner, was too sick to rejoin the show. His starting weight is 596 lbs, he'll do everything he can to make us proud, and he'll make himself proud too. We’re going to do it together with him. And he will do it with all our support. And he looks forward to seeing us again. In 6 months. 150, 160 payounds lata than that. If he can lose 100 lbs by the start of season 16 and the finale, he can come back on the show and finish his journey. Also, it was announced at nbc.com that former trainer Jillian Michaels WILL be back next season, and she left the show to personally train Jeremy. She had to plan all the things she could torture him with. She did that 14 hours a day. She came back this season. He weighed in at the Season 17 finale at 489, with a total loss of 107 lbs. This season, he was eliminated at the finale, and the runner up for the at-home prize. This season, there were 6 finalists. Each person weighed in as a team. The winning team would get $250,000 each, which was awarded to Arthur Wornum (Season 11) and Daniel Wright (Seasons 7 and 8) The at-home winners would get $100,000 each, which was awarded to Mark Pinkhasovich (Season 10) and David Lee (Season 7). The runner-ups, Scott Mitchell (Season 16) and Rob Guiry (Season 16) received $125,000, and 2nd runner-ups, Mike Morelli (season 7) and Mark Trumbo received $50,000. Every trainer in every season was back this season, and even a new trainer, which was revealed to be Los Angeles Angels right-fielder Kole Calhoun. He also worked at Farrell’s in Brea, California. This season started out as 5 different ranches, not knowing about each other. There is the original one in Los Angeles, Detroit, Boston, Houston, and Tempe. There is a new episode Monday-Friday. They all meet together week 9, and new episodes are only on Thursdays. At the end of the season, 28 of the contestants in the first ever Biggest Loser Ironman, which was won by Austin Andrews (Season 11), but he withdrew from the season right after for unknown reasons, so it was won by Daniel Wright (Seasons 7 and 8), and he was guaranteed a spot as a finalist because of it.

Week 1

This marks the first week of season 18 of the Biggest Loser.

265 former contestants/baseball players weigh in at home and in front of their friends and family. Then, they appear on a ranch. There are 53 contestants on 5 different ranches. They would all compete in a challenge, a different one on each ranch. The last person to finish would be sent home, but given the challenge that if they can lose 10% of their weight in 4 weeks, they can come back on the show and finish their journey. The person that won the challenge would get immunity for the week. Second place gets $10,000. Everyone chooses their partner in the order they finished. Then they are picked by their trainer. The team with immunity gets both trainers and the last team picked doesn’t get a trainer for the week. They also find out that at the end of the season, there will be an ironman. If they win the ironman, they will automatically become a finalist, eliminated or not. There are 2 trainers on each ranch. However, nobody knows that there are 5 different ranches that will eventually merge into just one ranch. During the weigh-in, 2 teams fall below the yellow line and the other teams will vote to send one of the teams home.

RANCH 1

55 contestants have to weigh in in front of their friends and family. Daris gives his speech about himself weighing in 346 lbs, and that he will do everything he can to make us proud, and he will make himself proud too. Cheryl follows him and gives the exact same speech. Then, Austin gives the speech. They arrive in Los Angeles, California. They see their host Ryan Dempster. But we shall call him, “Dempster the Dumpster.” They discover that they are all former contestants with the exception of two. Erick Aybar is the shortstop for the Atlanta Braves and Kevin was on Biggest Loser Australia seasons 7 and 8. They will compete in a mile challenge. Nobody wants to be in last place because they want to stay on campus. Except, for Ben. He is on the floor screaming, “I VOLUNTEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”, indicating that he wants to volunteer to be the person to lose. However, Ken won’t let him and he drags him. Daris comes in first place! Austin comes in second. It is between Ron, Ben, and Bobby for last place. Corey falls. So does Tracey. However, Bobby goes the wrong way and gets lost! Corey and Tracey are dragged by Ken to the finish line. After, they are sent to the hospital. Coach Mo also has to go to the hospital, though he finished. So is Ben, even though he volunteered to go home. Bobby is given the opportunity that if he can lose 10% of his weight in 4 weeks, he can come back on the show and finish his journey. Bobby accepts the challenge and goes home. When the contestants walk into the gym, they see Bob and Jillian! They are happy to see that Bob and Jillian are their trainers. Now, they have to pick their teams. Before they pick teams, they all sit in a circle and tell their stories. Here are the teams in the order they finished.

Daris and Cheryl (orange) Austin and Aybar (tan) Jen J and Jen M (purple) Jay S and Jay J (green) John and Tom (black) Antone and Antoine (grey) Emmy and Daphne (aqua) Gina M and Gina H (blue) Aubrey and James (yellow) Aaron M and Aaron T (gold) Kaylee and Woody (turquoise) Dina and Tina (indigo) Britney and Whitney (cream) Suzy and Suzanne (poop) Julie and Damien (maroon) Craig and Erik (white) Jesse and Coach Mo (aquamarine) Elizabeth and Ron (camo) Benjamin and Kevin (barf) Moses and Mo (sky) Bob and Robbie (teal) Carla and Joelle (silver) Johnny and Bonnie (pink) Jerry L and Jerry S (peach) Jerry H and Gary (forest) Corey and Tracey (violet) Ben and Ken (brown)

Now, here comes the first workout. Next they have their first workout. It is the toughest workout yet! Bob yells at Patrick H and reminds him of his family. Craig is afraid of water. Jerry passes out and is taken to a hospital. Everyone is worried. Bob asks John and Tom to go to him for a second, and just them 3 will do a certain workout. First they have to come up with a name from it, and they all agree on The BobJohnTom workout. They work hard. Ben bumps his head. Bob asks him where he is. He says he is in Tennessee. Bob asks if he knows who he is. “Tommy Hanson? :(” he says. Cheryl is screaming and punching the punching bag. Jillian is yelling at everyone. Kevin is having a hard time in America. He misses Australia! Jillian yells at him and makes him go on the treadmill for 5 minutes RUNNING!!!! He does it. He is proud. Daris and Austin are braiding each others hair. Jillian yells at them, and makes them run around the ranch. We see their hair bounce up and down as they’re running. Now, the trainers pick the teams they want to work with. The last team picked does NOT get a trainer for the week.

Ben and Ken don’t get a trainer :), because Ben volunteered to not have one. Ken doesn’t like this, and he also doesn’t like Ben. Ben thinks Ken is his best friend. Bob and Jillian give Aaron T a Package. He opens it and it is his favorite sandwich, the terminator. And this time, HE EATS IT!!! Bob and Jillian yell at him, and he has to have 2 last chance workouts now. All the contestants are sitting around and Coach Mo, Jerry, and Corey walk in. They say that Tracey is still at the hospital. They are back in time for last chance workout. Bob and Jillian almost KILL THEM. They are okay. Now, the weigh-in. At the weigh-in Bob gives his BEST FRIEND Dempster the Dumpster a HUGE hug.

Despite Julie losing only 2, Damien wins it by pulling 39, what he needed in season 16 to keep his team safe. He is happy. Jillian is a much better trainer than Jessie, he claims. Black (John and Tom) had the highest percentage of all the teams (-7.97%), mainly because Bob worked extra hard with those 2 the entire week. Jerry L, 72 years old, shockingly had the highest individual percentage (-10.44%). For the Orange Team with immunity, Cheryl loses 14 and Daris loses 10. Tan (Austin and Aybar) pulled shocking numbers, as Aybar, the shortstop of the Braves only lost 2 lbs and Austin GAINED 2. Brown (Ben and Ken) fell below the line with Tan and Ken really fights to stay, but Ben doesn’t. Ben volunteers for them to go home, partly to save Austin, but mainly just to volunteer and make Ken go home. Ken cries. EVERYONE votes for Ken. Today, Ben weighs 546, a total loss of 50 lbs, and is playing with his family. He plans on weighing under 400 by the finale and coming back on the next show to volunteer to go home again. Ken now weighs 320, a loss of 68 lbs, and is skydiving and jumping off of an airplane. He wants to win the at-home prize at the finale.

RANCH 2

The 53 contestants weigh-in in front of their friends and family. Ruben is like famous, so he weighs in LIVE on TV! Mark Trumbo, a famous Major League Baseball player on the Baltimore Orioles, weighs in infront of ALL the fans at Camden Yards. David Lee weighs in at 756 lbs, by far the heaviest ever. Everyone arrives in Detroit. They meet their host, JB Shuck. Ed is SOOOOO happy to see him!! He gives him a HUGE HUG. He says that they will compete in their first challenge. Jeremy says its, “CHALEANGE” not “CHALLENGE”. Then Chandra says it’s “CHOLLONGE.” Then it goes back and forth. “CHALLANGE!” “CHOLLONGE!” “CHALLANGE!” “CHOLLANGE! “CHALLANGE!” “CHOLLONGE!” Everyone is going to compete a challenge. They need to balance on a tree stump. Whoever falls first is eliminated. Trumbo wins. Adrian is the one to fall off first, so he is sadly eliminated. David L was a close second though. However, David J hurts his leg when he falls. He breaks his leg, and the doctor comes. Mark C is knocked over by Jeremy, and he falls and hurts his leg. He is limited to the bike. Mike G fractures his knee and is on crutches. Here are the teams:

Trumbo and David L (red) Justin and Lance (maroon) Matt W and Matt M (white) David B and Toma (clear) Seth and Jeff (turquoise) Rulon and Ruben (yellow) Ed and Chandra (macaroni) Bernie and Neil (barf) Pete and Allen (magenta) Damien and Tommy (cream) Megan and Jessica (purple) Blake and Conda (black) Mark P and Mark C (tomato) Buddy and Joe B (lightbrown) Jesse and Sean (violet) Q and Adam (Aquamarine) Rick and David J (lime) Mary and Rob (blood) Vinny and Matt P (gold) Jackson and Dan (sun) Matt H and Chelsea (blue) Sonya and Tanya (sky) Mike and Mikey (brown) Mike D and Mike G (navy) Arthur and Daniel (orange) Jeremy and Larialmy (green)

Now, it’s the first workout. The trainers aren’t there, so they decide to start on their own. Daniel and David L get a rope and they put it under their foot. Daniel says, “I guess this does hurt a little,” Then, Dolvett jumps out of a helicopter! In this Detroit ranch, there are multiple rooms. They open the door, and they see a guy, on a rope, hanging from the ceiling. He is faced backwards, wearing an Angels jersey. It says Calhoun 56 on the back. Kole Calhoun is their new trainer. However, he doesn’t know anyone is there because he is singing, “You Make me Feel So Young”. “You make me feel so young. You make me feel so spring has sprung.” He looks like this: Vinny and Matt Pooper scream after seeing him. Now, the workout starts. Daniel cries. He gets emotional because this is the THIRD time he has been on the show. He promises he is never going back and that this will be the last year of his life being fat. Then, he goes on the treadmill and runs a 6.5. David L does nothing, because Trumbo picked him and he has immunity. Jeremy is really upset with David and thinks that he doesn’t deserve to be there. David L, mad at Jeremy, finally decides to work out. Vinny and Matt P are very happy to see Kole Calhoun. Them mixed together=him. Kole Calhoun makes them run around the field in a built in ballpark for two hours. Arthur looks like a bowling ball. Buddy falls off the treadmill and hurts his leg. Now, 4 people have hurt their legs. Jackson throws up. He also breaks his glasses. At the doctors, Buddy finds out that he has a terrible stress fracture in his knee. He will not be able to compete in any challanges for a LONG time, maybe the entire time he is on campus. Buddy cries. Daniel cries. Rob screams. Trumbo is proving to be the biggest competitor, as he is doing everything Dolvett and Kole Calhoun, his former teammate tell him to do, despite weighing 544 lbs. David B tells his story, and about how his wife had cancer with the glasses. Now, his SECOND wife has cancer and has the glasses, but it isn’t bad and she won’t die. He is kicked out of the gym. Conda is kicked out of the gym for complaining. Blake gets kicked out too because she disobeys Dolvett. Now, the trainers pick their teams. One team will be unchosen.

Ed and Chandra don’t get a trainer. Ed cries. Daniel cries. Jeremy talks to Arthur and Daniel. They decide to start an alliance. Daniel wants his best friend David to join, but Jeremy says that he can’t unless he can prove to be loyal and shows that he actually does want to be here. They agree. Conda wants to join, but Jeremy tells her to go away. Conda cries. Daniel cries because he thinks more people the better, but Jeremy says that he hates his sister. Sean also joins their group, as he is loyal and just wants to lose weight. Jeremy and Sean agree that David should go home and they will vote him off. However, Arthur and Daniel plan to use Sean and potentially send him home. At the last chance workout, Jeremy and David fight even more. Jeremy is working hard with Dolvett, but Kole Calhoun ignored David because he refuses to do any work. David L eats a hotdog in his fridge. Nobody sees him. Mark P says that he is always first, and he wants to actually win this season. Now, the weigh-in.

Everyone was happy with their numbers except for Vinny and Matt P because they wanted to lose 56 as a team in honor of Kole Calhoun. They cry. They say, “We want Kole Calhoun not Ian Stewart.” Trumbo cries. Daniel cries. Most of the numbers are extremely good. Rick had the highest overall percentage on the ranch (-10.59%), and his lime team (with David J) had the highest percentage (-8.96%). Everyone is shocked, including Jeremy, that David L lost a record breaking 50 lbs in one week, and that Jeremy pulled 13, which he was happy with until he found out it wasn’t good enough. Green (Jeremy and Larialmy) and Macaroni (Ed and Chandra) fall below the yellow line. Due to Jeremy’s started alliances, more teams decide to vote Ed and Chandra home. J.B. Shuck was sad because he looks like Ed. Today Ed weighs 294, and has lost 100 lbs already. He wants to come back on the show and finish his journey, like in season 6. He hates Chandra for ruining his chances to win. Chandra now weighs 400, and has lost 11 lbs. She likes getting stuck on hills and being fat at the finale, as well as saying chollange. She wants to be under 200 by the finale.

RANCH 3

The 53 fat people weigh in in front of their friends and family. Iannetta’s bald. Scott has a fat face. Now, the contestants arrive in New York. Alison is their host and they are happy. They walk into the gym. They have to go 26.2 miles on a bike, an entire marathon. It is between Scott and Tara throughout the entire time. Cherita is struggling. She is starting to hurt. Migdalia is upset because she won last time but this time is almost in last place. At the last second, Tara falls off the bike. Scott wins! Tara is second. Cherita QUITS off the bike and she gets last place. The doctor has to come. She is in last place and eliminated. Here are the teams:

Scott and Iannetta (red) Tara and Danni (green) Sam and Koli (grey) Sarah and Dan (pink) Brian and Ryan (gold) Blaine and Dane (black) Jordan and Schwarber (blue) Grant Green and Coleen (yellow) Sione and Filipe (aqua) Mandi and Sandy (neon yellow) Irene and Vicki (orange) Lauren L and Lauren C (gold) Hannah and Shanna (purple) Olivia and Miggy (tan) Don and Liz (camo) Courtney C and Courtney R (turquoise) Pam and Colby (magenta) Jackie and Holley (indago) Chism and Kristin (violet) Gail and Cathy (cream) John C and and Laura (macaroni) Michael V and Michael D (white) Hap and Roy (maroon) Hope and Toy (barf) Julio and Danny (brown) Shay and Migdalia (sky)

Jen and Jessie enter the gym. The contestants are happy. They are the trainers of these ranch 3 contestants. Now, it’s the first workout. Iannetta shaves his already bald head. Roy collapses on the floor and the doctor has to come. Julio is slowly walking on the stairs but mostly being lazy. Hap and Roy make Santa noises. Shay doesn’t want to climb the Jacobs ladder. Jen NICELY tells her to climb it. Because Jen is so nice, Shay doesn’t do it. Schwarber cries. He misses his team. Finally, he walks slowly on the stairs. Chism only likes the rower and the Jacob’s ladder, so he does the entire time. Dane goes on the leg machine. He pushes it with 5000 lbs and Blaine on it. Jen and Jessie are proud. Dane looks like Trout. Now, the trainers pick their teams.

Jen

Julio and Danny Chism and Kristin Sam and Koli Don and Liz Sandy and Mandi Sarah and Tara John C and Laura Lauren L and Lauren C Hannah and Shanna Coleen and Grant Green Dane and Blaine Jordan and Schwarber

Jessie

Michael V and Michael D Hap and Roy Pam and Colby Irene and Vicky Hope and Toy Shay and Migdalia Courtney C and Courtney R Holley and Jackie Olivia and Miggy Brian and Ryan Sione and Filipe Dan and Danni

Gail and Cathy don’t get a trainer. Gail cries. Courtney C, Olivia, Hannah, and Irene continue their alliance from season 11. However, they decide to include Shay, as she could really help them in the future. At the last chance workout, Jen and Jessie make the contestants push a car one mile. It takes forever. Now, it’s the weigh-in.

Week 2

The contestants on each ranch take a visit to the doctor. Some results terrify the contestants, and there are some extremely sick contestants that could die in the course of 10 years. Then, the contestants compete in a temptation. They will eat big doughnuts that are 560 calories each. Whoever eats the most gets to pick one person on each team who’s weight will count at the weigh-in. At the challenge, the contestants dig a 5 feet wide, 5 feet deep hole, which helps build character. The winner gets immunity. At the weigh-in, one team will fall below the yellow line and one person will be voted off. Austin (Ranch 1) had the highest percentage (-7.04%).

RANCH 1

Nobody is upset with the elimination of Ben and Ken. Bob however is very disappointed in Ben for not fighting to stay. Benjamin is emotionally messed up, mainly because his best friends Ben and Ken are gone. He doesn’t think it was right for Ben to go, even though Benjamin voted him off, so he walks out. Bob and Jillian are both shocked to see Benjamin go. Now, the contestants visit their best friend, the doctor. Woody has 87% fat, about 600 lbs of it. He also has diabetes. Woody is scared that he will die. Aybar has gained so much weight over the past few months, mainly from stress due to playing shortstop on the Twins and struggling, hitting free agency on a bad note, and chewing tobacco. If Aybar keeps this up, he would never be able to play baseball again. Aybar knows he made the right choice of joining the show. Jerry H is very sick and old. Ron is VERY sick! He has had 4 more surguries since Season 7. He has an inner age of 78. He has very little muscle. Tracey has finally returned!!! The contestants are kind of happy to see her, but they have also learned that she is crazy. Now, the temptation. They walk into the room. One person from each team will represent their team at a time. They have walls up so nobody can see them. Only Tracey, John, and Bonnie eat. Bonnie eats 30 doughnuts for 16,800 calories. Tracey eats 36 doughnuts for 20,160 calories. John wins by eating 37, 20,720 calories. Johnny is making weird noises the whole time. Now, it’s the challenge. The contestants head to the desert. Tracey and Jerry H are not medically cleared to compete. Aybar finds out that he is a GREAT digger. Actually, he’s a better digger than he is baseball player. However, Jay S is even better. The Jays win. Aybar would have won but Austin was putting some of the dirt back in. Stanley from Holes also shows up during the challenge. Austin talks to him because their hair is the same. Jay S and Jay J have immunity for the week. At the last chance workout, everyone is nervous who John and Tom will pick. Bob is furious with John, and since Tom is his teammate, they do the BobJohnTom workout again. Corey stresses out. Austin and Aybar are pushed more than everyone, since they lost nothing combined as a team the FIRST week, then barely lost in the challenge. At the last chance workout, Bob screams at Joelle because she is not doing any of the work. He is even crazier than in season 7! Now, the weigh-in.

Tracey is also surprised to see she lost 10. Bonnie however gains 2, which she is not surprised, and Johnny also gains 2. And goes home. The votes were split almost equally, but Johnny is voted off as he let the team down. Johnny now weighs 269, a loss of 59 lbs, and has thrown a party with his family. He wants to complete the ironman at the finale, no matter how long it takes.

RANCH 2

Dolvett and Kole Calhoun are not surprised that Ed and Chandra are gone and Jeremy and Larialmy are still here. At the first workout, Jeremy starts to cry because he is exhausted and is sick with the stomach flu. David L calls him weak for stopping. Jeremy says that David has no heart. They yell at each other for a couple minutes. David cries. Daniel cries. Dolvett tries to stop it, but he can’t because David kicks Dolvett in the throat. Dolvett cries. Dolvett wants to talk to them, but he is too busy with Conda, who is yelling at Mike for calling Jeremy a tank at the weigh-in. Mike G is making Del Griffin noises so loud that nobody on the ranch in the gym can hear anything. It is chaotic in the house right now. Now, it’s the doctor. He sees Buddy and he has high cholesterl, and he has stress fractures that are even worse, and he is liminted to the pool and elliptical. He also has fat around his EYES!!! He needs thinker glasses, or else he will become BLIND. Arthur has 87% fat, a 36% chance of a stroke, an inner age of 70, and a death date of 2/18/29. Daniel goes in and has a 50% chance of a stroke in the next 5 years, diabetes, and an inner age of 60. Daniel cries. David has 200 lbs of muscle and 556 lbs of fat. He cries and says that he wants it to be the other way around. Rob walks in. The doctor says he is headed for not walking anymore. He tells him to get into a wheelchair. He says, “I really don’t want to.” The doctor tells him to stop whining. Rob then says “I KNOW I’M DYING IN 5 YEARS! YOU DON’T HAVE TO REMIND ME!” Then he walks out. The doctor follows. He tells him to comeback. He then shows Rob a picture of him at the Season 16 finale, when he almost won. He feels a LITTLE better. Mikey is next. He doctor says he has bad eyesight. He shows him glasses, and tells him it is where he is heading, and to put the glasses on. He says, “I really don’t want to.” The doctor tells him to stop whining. He says, “I KNOW I’M DYING IN 5 YEARS! YOU DON’T HAVE TO REMIND ME!” Then he walks out. The doctor follows. He tells him to comeback. He then shows Rob a picture of Mikey at the Season 7 finale, when he was the runner-up. Rob says, “I DON’T CARE!!!” Rob walks out, and he then shows it to Mikey. After the visit, Rob asks him how it went. Mikey says he yelled at the doctor too. Rob gets really mad, and yells at him, because yelling at the doctor is HIS thing. Mikey cries. Rob screams. Daniel cries. Finally, it is Jeremy’s visit. He has diabetes, ebola, a risk of cancer, rabies, an 80% chance of a heart attack, sleeping trouble, breathing trouble a clogged chest, gout, asthma, muscle pains, stiff joints, kidney stones, skin tags, the chicken pox, gray hair, high cholesterol, the flu, typhoid, dysentery, tendonitis (everywhere), shin splints, stress fractures, a rash caused by stress, losing his eyesight so he might become a Buddy, 98% chance of a stroke in the next 5 years, can’t go more than a 3.5 on a treadmill, a risk of not being able to walk anymore, is on 44 medications, 40 of them are pills, 89% fat, and has had 13 surgeries since leaving the ranch. His inner age is 78 and his death date is 1/4/19, meaning he would die under 30. Jeremy says he is going to have the biggest medical difference the Biggest Loser has ever had. Now, it’s the temptation. The alliance of orange, Jeremy, and Sean agrees that one of them will win the temptation, agreeing it will be Arthur that eats since he can lose the weight easier than everyone else. Bernie eats 10 doughnuts for 5,600 calories. Vinny eats 5 for 2,800 calories. Mike D eats 12 doughnuts for 6,720 calories. David L eats 15 doughnuts for 8,400 calories, but it wasn’t to win, it was just to have some food he enjoys. Arthur eats 21 for 11,176 calories, which is enough to win. He will choose one person to represent each team at the weigh-in. At the challenge, it is between Mikey and Mike and Conda and Blake. Trumbo is a decent digger but David L isn’t doing anything to help. Mikey and Mike win! Dan hates them SO much that he walks off the show. Jackson will represent his team this week. Later in the week, Jeremy, Arthur, Daniel, and Sean agree to add Jesse and Rob into their alliance. They promise that they will never vote for each other. Now, the weigh-in.

People are sad that Debbie and Estella went home. They are old and needed to be here. Syndergaard is struggling at the workout. He is really upset. He was a skinny, hard-throwing pitcher for the world series Mets. However, he had a bad start to the 2017 season, went on the disabled list, and gained weight at a huge pace, to get to 534 lbs. Anna tries to help him get through it, but she fails. Syndergaard gets a baseball and throws it right into Anna’s face about 100 mph. Anna cries and is taken to the hospital. She is okay, but she will NEVER workout with Syndergaard again. Now, the doctor. It is revealed Nelson has been taking steroids. If he continues to do this, he could die very soon. Nelson cries. Montina has fat in her throat, and she is losing her singing voice. She is also a diabetic. Burgundy has a weird stress fracture and cannot compete in any challenges. She cries. Now, the temptation. McCutchen is the ONLY one that eats, and he eats 22 doughnuts for 12,320 calories. He only needed one, but he ate 22. Everyone thinks McCutchen is an idiot. Now, the challenge. It is between Paul and Rachel and Syndergaard and McCutchen. McCutchen puts his hair into the hole, so Paul and Rachel win! Now, the weigh-in.

Wylie had the highest percentage (-6.14%). Amanda and Fernanda (Magenta) fall below the yellow line and are up for elimination. Due to lower percentage of weight loss, Fernanda receives more votes and is eliminated. Right after Fernanda’s elimination, Ryan quits because he doesn’t like anyone on this ranch and wants to weigh 330 again. Hyun also quits because he likes to yawn too much. Today, Fernanda weighs 185 and is playing with her family. She wants to weigh 130 at the finale.

Week 3

This week, the contestants on some ranches go through some huge drama. There is a temptation at Farrell’s where whoever eats the calories can switch whoever with whomever they want. For the challenge, the contestants have to run up and down a mountain carrying a 2 feet bucket of water. Whoever fills a 5 foot high bucket first not only gets immunity but they get to choose another team to have immunity too. Frado on ranch 4 had the highest percentage of weight loss (-5.93%), but there are very bad numbers for the most part.

Bob and Jillian are not surprised to see Johnny gone. More people like Bonnie than Johnny. Who knows why. Now, it’s the temptation. Mo knows he is going to eat because he likes food. Tracey is also going to eat, so she can mix and mess everyone up. Mo eats a hot fudge sundae for 850 calories. Nobody else eats, until Tracey enters the room. She eats 12 scoops of ice cream for 3,014 calories, and she wins. Here is what she does:

Daris and Austin (orange) Cheryl and Aybar (tan) Jen J and Jay J (green) Jay S and Jen M (purple) John and Tom (black) Antone and Antoine (grey) Emmy and Daphne (aqua) Gina M and Gina H (blue) Aubrey and James (yellow) Aaron M and Aaron T (gold) Kaylee and Woody (turquoise) Dina and Tina (indigo) Britney and Whitney (cream) Suzy and Suzanne (pink) Julie and Damien (maroon) Craig and Erik (white) Corey and Jesse (aquamarine) Elizabeth and Ron (camo) Benjamin and Kevin (barf) Moses and Mo (sky) Carla and Joelle (silver) Bonnie (pink) Jerry L and Jerry S (peach) Jerry H and Gary (forest) Coach Mo and Tracey (violet)

Tracey makes her decisions because she thinks Daris, Austin, and Aybar are huge threats so she wanted to mix them up, and she trusts Coach Mo more than she trusts Corey. Daris and Aybar are sad that they lost their partners. However, Daris and Austin get to know each other very well. They start an alliance with Aybar. Now, the challenge. Jerry H passes out on his way up the mountain. He wakes up and is okay. It is between Julie and Damien and John and Tom, and Damien and Julie win! They decide to give immunity to Daris and Austin since they were messed with and they don’t like Tracey at all. Now, the weigh-in.

Jerry L and Jerry S fell below the yellow line. Jerry L volunteers to go home, since he is smaller than Jerry S and he needs to be there more. His wishes are granted, and Jerry L is sent home. Today, Jerry L weighs 220, a loss of 77 lbs, and is riding a bike across the country to inspire America that even old people can do crazy things. He wants to weigh 180 by the finale.

Dolvett and Kole Calhoun are shocked to see Sean gone. However, Jeremy had allianced with Jesse, more than he did with Sean. Throughout the workouts, Jeremy continuously accuses David of not working out hard. He doesn’t think he wants to be there. David fights back and points out how weak Jeremy’s numbers have been, however he had given it everything he’s had. The first chance Jeremy gets, he will send David home. Jeremy asks Rob to join the alliance, as they have bonded and pushed each other extremely hard so far. Rob said yes, but if he has to eventually turn against him, he will. Later, Jeremy talks to Arthur, Daniel, Rob, and Jesse in his room. He asks if they would be willing to send David home, even though he is somewhat their friend. Arthur, and Jesse have no problem getting rid of David, not since he doesn’t deserve to be there but only because he could win the whole show if he wanted to. Daniel however isn’t sure whether he would send David or Jeremy home. He is upset with David for not working hard, being lazy, and gaining so much weight at home, but they’ve been friends since they were little kids and he isn’t sure if he could do such a thing. Now, the contestants arrive at Farrell’s. Kole Calhoun WORKS here in the offseason! Jeremy’s eyes light up when he sees that Farrell’s has added Chinese Food. Arthur goes in first. He decides that he wants to win, since he wants to vote out the threats (Mark P, David B, Rick, and Justin) and keep his teams safe. He eats 2 entire fried chickens, 3 scoops of ice cream, and 10 chocolate bars for 2,019 calories. Rob wants to win so he can keep himself, Mary, Arthur, Daniel, Jeremy and Jesse in the game for as long as possible, however he is 300 calories short of Arthur. David L is next. He KNOWS he is in danger of going home. He has to eat. But David wins by FAR eating David eats 37 donuts, an extra large cheese pizza, 2 hot dogs, a burger, tobacco, sardines, pasta, a box of cds, bubblegum, a doorknob, opera, a lightbulb, Iannetta’s head, Mark from season 13’s head, jillians socks, carters underwear, walters underwear in the soup, a box of contacts, chicken tenders, an iPhone, chicken wings, stupid tutor glasses, buddy, a carpet, ken, a computer, rabbis, Q’s glasses, Jackson’s glasses, Buddy’s glasses, Joe (12)’s glasses, the women that poops in the pool, bubblegum, a chew toy, a hot dog, a beer, some coffee, tea, lifesavers, a slurpee, Ramon’s hair, Francelina’s hair, Harold Reynolds, Arte Moreno, Blackbomb, Jasper Dryers, tablecloths, Mr, Snyder, a computer, the Japanese guy that taught Josh karate, the Korean women that parks in the handicap spot, Megan’s poop, Lugian’s breath, chinese food, 12 cheeseburgers, water, ice, ice cream, sand, and a mexican robot for 33,419 calories (almost 10 lbs). Jeremy can tell how much David has eaten. Jeremy realizes David has eaten a ton, so there is no way he will eat over 10 lbs to win. He lets David win. David COMPLETELY messes up the teams. Here is what he does:

Jeremy and David L (red) Justin and Rulon (yellow) Matt W and Matt M (white) David B and Toma (clear) Jeff and Jackson (turquoise) Ruben and Tanya (maroon) Allen and David J (barf) Pete and Bernie (magenta) Megan and Jessica (purple) Blake and Joe (black) Mark P and Trumbo (lightred) Larialmy and Conda (lightbrown) Jesse and Seth (Violet) Q and Adam (Aquamarine) Arthur and Tommy (cream) Mike G and Neil (lime) Mary and Mikey (blood) Vinny and Matt P (gold) Matt H and Chelsea (blue) Sonya and Lance (sky) Mike and Rob (brown) Mike D and Rick (navy) Daniel and Damien (orange) Mark C and Buddy (green)

Nobody is happy with their new teams. Nobody can get their head straight. David explains his decision that he wants to send Jeremy home. What he doesn’t know is Jeremy is friends with EVERYONE on the ranch. EVERYONE. Even Mary. NOBODY likes Mary. Except for David L of course. Jeremy is not surprised to be David, however he knows he has more friends than David and thinks he is a fool. He WILL throw the weigh-in. Now, the challenge. Everyone feels weird as most of them have new partners. Jeff and Jackson are somewhat happy they’re together. It is close between Justin and Rulon and Vinny and Matt P, but Justin and Rulon win! Rulon has an alliance with Ruben, so he decides that he will give the extra immunity to Ruben and Tanya. Jeremy is shown throwing gallons of water in his mouth. It is obvious he will be gaining weight this week. Now, the weigh-in, one of the most dramatic in biggest loser history.

He could have easily gone home since Neil gained 17, because why not? However, obviously Jeremy and David L fell below the yellow line. David is shocked he actually lost weight. Dolvett is extremely disappointed in Jeremy for gaining 24 lbs. He has now gained weight since he has first started! Both Jeremy and David believe the votes will go their way. However, David doesn’t know that Jeremy is closer to the people David is close to than he is himself. Daniel has no idea who he is going to vote for. The vote starts with Barf, Cream, Blue, and Gold all voting for David to go home. David receives all the votes that were revealed, and he is sent home. Today, David weighs 775 lbs. He now WALKS from the chair to the kitchen to get food. He now only eats ONE hot dog from the place. Before the biggest loser, David ate 10 desserts a day. Now, he only eats NINE desserts a day. He wants to run a double-marathon in less than 1 hour by the finale and wants to weigh under 100 by the finale and weigh less than Rachel did.

Everyone walks out to the temptation. Michael V is the only one that eats eating 2 pieces of pizza, and a banana split for 1,800 calories. He puts Sam with Sione, and Koli with Filipe. He also puts Dan and Don together, Danni with Liz, and Sarah with Tara. Those are the only changes he makes. Koli cries. But, they like their new partners. Both keep Jen as their trainer. The challenge is next, and Sarah and Tara win. Sam and Sione are ahead of them most of the time, Scott and Iannetta and Sarah and Tara pass them. Iannetta was feeling his head the whole time, and Scott is still just a little too fat to win a challenge like this. Sam and Sione are an athletic team, and Michael V hasn’t thought of that. Last chance workout is tough for Koli, because he keeps crying about Sam. But, he is okay. And now, the weigh-in. Sarah and Tara decide that Scott and Iannetta will also have immunity, since they were so close.

This week starts with the temptation. Brendan eats meatballs, a beef dip, french fries, macaroni and cheese, fried chicken, breadballs, goldfish, and bacon for 3,212 calories. Brendan wins. He hates the threats. He switches Jim and Adam, so it’s Ada and Jim and Adam and Kim. He also switches Darrell with Michelle, so it’s Darrell and Renee and Andrea and Michelle. The last switch is Joe O and Ana, so Amy P and Joe O and Ana and Phil. Brendan is eager to remove the best competition so he can win. Now, the challenge. Brendan feels like he has a target now, so he really wants to win the immunity and give the other one to Patrick H. That is exactly what happens!

RANCH 5

It starts with the temptation. Cathan eats 50 slices of pizza for 14,115 calories, just so she can keep everything the same. Everyone calls Cathan stupid. Cathan cries. At the challenge, Paul and Rachel win yet again! They are the only athletic people besides maybe Syndergaard and McCutchen on the ranch. Due to that, they give them immunity. Now, the weigh-in.

Week 4

This marks the 10% mark of season 18 of the biggest loser.

This week, the people will compete in a very hard challenge. They have to push a ship in the ocean, it weighs the amount of weight they’ve lost so far at the 10% mark,

plus 20 lbs. Whoever wins the challenge gets a huge reward. They get to choose what trainer they want and they get to pick 3 others for their team. Both trainers will train all the teams this week. After the challenge, one of the strangest things ever on the biggest loser happened. They were in a huge cycle. All the ranches together did stuff. It started like this: Jeremy says, “I’M A FAILURE!!!!!!” Mark C cries. Tanya poops. Ruben picks his nose. Arthur gets his ears infected. Sam sings. Koli cries. Daniel cries. Rob screams. Scott steps on a safety pin. He is okay. Jordan is like, “WHAAATT?!” Mikey gets golfcart. He gets it stolen. Daris and Austin play with their hair. Hap and Roy act like Santa. Mike G does the truffle shuffle. So does Jordan. Mike slowly runs on the treadmill. Sione and Filipe do the Tongan Dance. Then Sam and Koli do it. Then Moses and Kaylee do it! Ramon gets his hair caught in the weight machines. Conda yells at everyone. Blake smiles, and gets a blister on her butt for not using the towel on the bike. Sunny screams. Dane puts on a Trout jersey. He calls himself obese. Ryan starts a fire. Toma catches on fire. Sonya gets blown away by the wind. Francelina finds MANY things in her hair! Like spiders, anchors, and candy bars she shuck in. Jillian is watching them all. She says they are all retarded. That team will get immunity too. For everyone else, their fate will be in the roll of the dice. At the weigh-in, one entire team of 4 will fall below the red line and be automatically eliminated. Jeremy on ranch 2 had the highest percentage of weight loss, as he lost a would be record-breaking 55 lbs, but it isn’t a valid record due to his 24 lb weight gain the previous week. His percentage was -11.16%.

RANCH 1

The contestants and trainers are sad to see Jerry L go. He was like a father to the contestants and now he is gone. At the first workout, Kevin is struggling on the treadmill. He is upset that he has gained all of the weight back again. He runs at a 5.5 for 2 minutes and he is extremely happy. After the workout, Bob (the contestant) announces he is leaving the show for personal reasons. Now it’s the challenge. The contestants are shocked to see that they’re going to be teams of 4, they were partners already for half the week. Everyone, especially Bonnie is struggling to push the ship. They all wont the control of their own fate badly though. It comes down to Daris, Austin, and Damien. Damien has the most strength of everyone, so Damien wins this one. Austin cries. He wanted a team of Daris, Austin, Cheryl, and Aybar. Here are the teams of 4:

Maroon: Damien, Aaron T, Craig, Erik Green: Jay J, Jay S, Jen J, Jen M Turquoise: Ron, Elizabeth, Woody, Kaylee Blue: Mo, Moses, Coach Mo, Jesse Red: Britney, Whitney, John, Tom Orange: Daris, Austin, Aybar, Cheryl White: Julie, Kevin, Antone, Antoine Purple: Corey, Tracey, Aubrey, James Grey: Jerry H, Jerry S, Gary, Bonnie Indago: Gina M, Gina H, Tina, Dina Silver: Carla, Joelle, Emmy, Daphne Gold: Aaron M, Suzy, Robbie, and Suzanne

The people are happy. For the most part, everyone, is, except Aaron M. He hates his team. The Blue team keeps shouting, “Mo, Mo, Mo, JESSAYYYY!!!!!” The contestants are really scared because they find out one entire team will go home. Some hope it’s Aaron M, because he doesn’t need to be there. Others wants an entire team to go home, as removing 4 would give them a better chance at winning and being the biggest loser. Now, the weigh-in.

RANCH 2

Right after the weigh-in, Jeremy has to run to the bathroom since he drank all that water right before that weigh-in. He is sitting on the toilet. Daniel find him. He says, jeremy, jeremy, Jeremy, JEREMY!!! Jeremy says WHAAAT! Daniel says hi. Then, he asks what Jeremy is doing. Jeremy says he’s playing David poops. Daniel cries. Unlike everyone else on the ranch, he misses his best friend David.

Now, the challenge. Jeremy loves pushing a ship. He is friends with anyone however, so he doesn’t care who his members are. Towards the end, it is down to Mike, Mikey, and Trumbo. Trumbo wins! Here are the teams:

Red Team: Trumbo, Vinny, Bernie, Neil Green Team: Jeremy, Justin, Toma, David J Orange Team: Arthur, Daniel, Rob, Mary Grey Team: Mark P, Mark C, Buddy, Joe Yellow Team: Rulon, Jessica, Blake, Megan Aqua Team: Q, Adam, Larialmy, Damien Gold Team: Matt H, Matt P, Matt W, Matt M Brown Team: Mikey, Mike, Mike D, Mike G Purple Team: Jackson, Jeff, Seth, Larialmy Lime: Jesse, Lance, David B, Rick Maroon: Sonya, Tanya, Conda, Ruben Barf: Allen, Pete, Chelsea

Everyone likes their teams, except for Rick at first. Jeremy wanted to be with Arthur, Daniel, and Rob, but he is okay, as he is with maybe his even better friends, Justin, Toma, and David from season 14. They take this picture together:

Rick however, doesn’t currently like his team. He wanted to be with David J. However, Jesse, Lance, David B, and Rick all become friends quickly. Then, they take THIS picture together:

Now, everyone is happy with their new teams. Everyone is sad to find out that one team will be eliminated this week. Before last chance workout, Jesse and Jessica think they are on the verge of getting eliminated. And Jeremy is coming off a 24 pound weight gain! And Conda sucks so she needs extra work too. So Jesse, Jessica, Jeremy, and Conda all go to the gym. The two Jeremy and Conda teams work VERY hard.

Now, the moment of truth, the weigh-in.

Allen weighs 250. He is no longer a firefighter, he got fired. He is now a police officer! He plans on arresting Jeremy by the finale. Pete now weighs 300 and plans on losing 100 more pounds by the finale.

Cathy weighs 250 and her hair is the same. Don weighs 220 and is losing the weight again with Dan. Irene weighs 199, and hates Don for making her throw the weigh-in.

Lisa M weighs 200 and her daughter isn’t starving herself anymore because her mom isn’t as fat, and she didn’t want to be fat like her mom. Lisa J is crazy and likes climbing stairs.

At the challenge, each team will have to put on a lifevest, which is 25 lbs on their back. They have to go in a boat and row 1 mile as a team. The first team done gets a choice. A 5 pound advantage at the weigh-in or $40,000 for the team to split. At the weigh-in, the losing team has to vote for one person on their team to go home. In addition, there is a red line, so the person with the overall lowest percentage of weight loss will be eliminated. Sunny on ranch 5 had the highest percentage of (-6.80%)

As expected, Green won! Jeremy, Justin, Toma, and David from season 14 open their letters and cry because they miss people. They work hard at the last chance workout. However once they enter the weigh-in room, they are shocked. J.B. Shuck tells the contestants that last week’s line was invalid, because they were offered less money than the other groups. This causes 4 things. 1, the contestants will have the chance to cross the line again for $25,000 right after elimination. 2, Adrian has the immunity that he won last week again, since the weigh-in is also invalid. 3, the Mikes will get ANOTHER $40,000 they got from the challenge. Mikey is happy. He can buy TWO golfcarts now! And 4, the eliminated player is coming back. Yes, Ruben is coming back. Everyone except Arthur is happy, since they all like Ruben.

Week 7

This week is a little bit different than others. Rather than the overall team percentage counting, each team will choose one person to represent their team. However they should probably choose one of their heaviest, as it won’t be the percentage, it will be the pounds lost. The person representing their team that loses the least amount of weight will be eliminated. No vote, no yellow line, that person will go home. However the person with the highest percentage of weight loss will have a huge choice to make. They can choose from gameplay package: A 1 lb advantage that grows by 1 lb each week they hold on to it, a 1 lb disadvantage that grows by 1 lb each week they can give to ANYONE, and an extra vote at the elimination of their choice, they could choose from family package: one letters from home, video chats from home, or the ability to bring a family member on campus for a week, $25,000, and a 2 lb advantage that person can use for a team or for themselves later on, or they could pick the safe package: immunity for the next week for their entire team, $10,000, and the ability to give another team a 5 lb advantage. For the challenge, they will play person basketball, Each team will attach one person to a harness and they will have to get them in a basket 5 times. The first team done will get letters from home. At the weigh-in, Vinny on Ranch 2 had the highest percentage (-7.67%).

Week 9 (Part I, 1 hour episode)

All the planes open the doors on ranch 1. They are ranches 2, 3, 4, and 5! Ranch 1, standing outside, as well as all the other ranches are shocked. Some see their family members that they didn’t even KNOW were on the show (ex: Mark C and Chism). They are happy to see each other but are very confused. They are told by all the hosts that they are merging and becoming one huge ranch. The gameplayers like Michael V, Arthur, and Brendan are both happy and sad, as it’ll be easier to stay on campus, but harder to win in the end. Most are happy as they think it’ll be fun being one ranch. Once everyone settles, a curtain rolls up.

David L and Nathan have the highest percentages so they are back! They have immunity this week. Jeremy is NOT happy. Now, all the contestants as well as David and Nathan are told to stand in front of a treadmill, which every contestant has with their name on it. Another curtain rolls up. It is ANOTHER LINE!!! Rick’s eyes light up. TO BE CONTINUED…

Week 9 (Part II, 3 hour format)

Dempster the Dumpster tells all the contestants that there is ANOTHER LINE that they can cross. But first, the biggest loser on each ranch will receive $25,000, so John (-28.09%), Rick (-29.71%), Tara, (-29.20%), Joe O (-28.30%), and Rachel (-29.62%) all receive their money. Now, the contestants step right behind the line. If ANY way they get over the line in the next 4 hours, they are eliminated. They receive $50,000 if they cross it. If they don’t want to cross it, they have to go on the treadmill. The treadmills are right behind the line, so if they decide to get off, they are eliminated. Now, the contestants can start crossing it. Rick, Neil, and Antone cross RIGHT when they can! Rick, the highest percentage so far, is gone!!! Joelle crosses it! Carla asks what she is doing. Joelle pushes Carla over the line! Ashley and Nathan decide to run really fast at a 15.0 speed! They fall off, and go over the line! At the same time! Jay S, Jay J, Jen J, Jen M, Gina H, Dina, Antoine, Q, Adam, Whitney, Gary, John, Tom, Suzanne, Nelson, Robbie, Coach Mo, Jesse W, Max, Moses, Emmy, Daphne, Mike, Jessica, Toma, David B, Suzy, Blaine, Sandy, Matt M, Holley, Andrea J, Jerry S, Vicki, Toy, Hope, Pam, Aaron T, Rudy, Aybar, Richard, Julie, Adam H, Damien G, Seth, Lance, Laura, Sarah, Migdalia, Shanon, Abby, Hap, and Roy are also gone! Everyone else is safe and survive the 4 hours on the treadmill. Now, the contestants have a pop challenge. They have to choose a random partner for the challenge. Their task is to balance on a stump and whichever team is the last one standing gets a 3 minute advantage in their real challenge. Grant Green can compete again as he is fine, but Tara and Buddy are not medically cleared. They start. David and Adrian fall out in less than 1 minute. Jeremy and Kristin are next. They both say it was a difficult “chaleange.” Everyone else falls off except Trumbo and Mark P. They really want to be a team. In honor of working really well with Mark P, Trumbo wants to be Mark T for now on, or at least for a while. Mark C and Mark P are happy. Quickly, they become really good friends! Mark T plans on shaving his head very soon. Now, all the contestants head on the 57 freeway and head to Angel Stadium, home of World Champion 2016 Angels and All-star game, regular season, AND world series MVP Mike Trout and the regular season runner-up, Kole Calhoun, and Cy-Young winner Garrett Richards, and AL Saves leader Huston Street (who got designated for assignment with Grant Green who they got in the mid-season), AL home-run leader Mark Trumbo, who is a contestant this season and gained more power as he gained weight, and Nolan Arenado (who they acquired at the trade deadline of 2016)! They are told by Dempster the Dumpster that they will be running an Angels 5K, with a special course just for them. It ends at home plate, and they get to run the bases! Everyone is happy. The winner wins $20,000 for just them, AND is the only person that can pick their partner. The last two people are eliminated. Everyone wants to win. Buddy and Tara are NOT medically cleared to compete. Mark P and Mark T have a 3 minute advantage, so they start 3 minutes earlier than everyone else! Mark T starts with a sprint, and runs a half mile in 3 minutes, but then runs out of energy and has to walk and take lots and lots of breaks. Mark P paces himself well, but has to walk anyway because he is fat. Now, everyone else starts. Dane is in 27th place at Mile 1, with a time of 14:15. However, while he passes the Mile 1 mark,

he sees the, MIKE TROUT, running up and he is coming to run with him! Here is a picture of them running together:

TROUT                        DANE

Trout says he is very proud of Dane. He runs the next mile with him. Trout says he is rooting for Dane to win. Dane passes almost everyone. It is between Dane and Scott, but Dane passes him at the last second, and finishes in 27:27! Arthur is struggling and is only at about 1.5 miles when Dane finishes. While he is running, THE Hector Santiago comes to run with Arthur! They run right next to each other for the rest of the way! Here is a picture of Arthur and Hector Santiago running together:

At the end when Mike G crosses, he is very proud. Hector Santiago gives him a medal. They take this picture together:

Meanwhile, Jeff is giving up. He is having a panic attack. He keeps calling himself a failure. He is like, “Failure. Failure. Failure.” He is out of breath, and passes out. Also, Jackson isn’t feeling so great either. He throws up and he passes out too!!! David is the last one to finish before them, so Jeff and Jackson are eliminated. BYE BYE JEFF AND JACKSON!!!! They are sad, and everyone else is sad to see them go. They get in the limo, and they see BOB!!!! (I would say his last name, but some other dude infected it, so it isn’t worth using…hint hint he is on the Nationals) Jeff and Jackson are very confused. But the best part is, THEY GET IMMUNITY!!! They will compete as a team against whoever gets eliminated next week and face off and try to earn a spot on campus. The last week, everyone on the ranch will compete to go back to the actual ranch. They are excited!:D Since Dane won, he gets to pick his partner. He chooses Scott because he is strong, athletic, and a GOOD FRIEND:D. He also looks like Superman!!! Matt W is happy. Everyone will be random. There will the top half percentages drawing, and their name will be taken out and one person will be drawn. There is also a color random bottle. Three papers will be drawn, the 2 names will be partners, and the random color will be their color. Here are the percentage orders:

Rachel Tara Joe O Damien Mike G Frado Syndergaard David Justin Sunny Jesse Daris Brendan Austin Arthur Rob Koli Sonya Darrell Michael V Paul Sam Hannah JJ Mandi Rulon Sione Michael D Scott Trumbo Dane Joe M Kristin Buddy Matt W Vinny Julio Matt P Filipe Patrick Erik Larialmy Danny Jeremy Danni Iannetta Shay Mary Blake Jordan Daniel Cheryl Mo Courtney Mark P Ramon Tanya Conda Craig Ron Kevin Adrian Mikey Chism Elizabeth Schwarber Grant Green Megan Ruben Kaylee Woody Francelina

Now, the people randomly pick their partner. Here are the results:

Dane and Scott (Red) Rachel and Mandi (Yellow) Tara and Danni (Magenta) Damien and Matt W (Teal) Mike G and Elizabeth (Pee) Frado and Brendan (Black) Syndergaard and Paul (Maroon) David and Grant Green (Macaroni) Justin and Hannah (Indago) Sione and Larialmy (Cream) Jesse and Conda (Forest) Daris and Austin (Tan) Arthur and Daniel (Orange) Rob and Ron (Brown) Sam and Koli (Grey) Sonya and Tanya (White) Cheryl and Darrell (Poop) Michael V and Michael D (Blue) Joe M and Buddy (Acorn) Rulon and Ruben (Nosepickin) Joe O and JJ (Aquamarine) Mark T and Mark P (Blood) Kristin and Chism (Purple) Vinny and Matt P (Gold) Julio and Danny (Camo) Filipe and Adrian (Aqua) Patrick and Erik (Clear) Jeremy and Craig (Green) Iannetta and Mark C (shiny) Shay and Courtney (Violet) Mary and Kevin (Turquoise) Blake and Mikey (Dirt) Jordan and Schwarber (Barf) Mo and Megan (Lime) Ramon and Francelina (Pink) Kaylee and Woody (Peach)

Sunny was originally supposed to be with Buddy. But she said, “BUDDY?! I GOTTA BE WITH BUDDY??!?!!!1!1!? I QUIT!!!!!!!” And she walks out. Buddy is happy she quits so he can be with Joe B. Joe B is happy because he can be with Buddy s’more :DDDDD!!! Most people got lucky and are with one of their friends. David and Grant Green and Dane and Matt W both have immunity this week. Now, the contestants enter a workout, finally. The trainers at the ranch are Dolvett, Kole Calhoun, Jen, and Jessie. They train all of the contestants very hard. Frado has a booger. Brendan also has booger. They are booger buddies, and both put on glasses that they borrowed from Buddy and Joe from season 12. Meanwhile, Jeremy and David continue fighting. Jen goes to talk to them. She makes them to trust exercises. It doesn’t work. She asks why they don’t like each other. David says that Jeremy is a former winner that has had too many chances. He was slacking off at home, and he thought he would fail on the ranch. Jen tells them to take a walk together, and to get to know each other. They talk, and they find out that they actually have a lot in common. They apologize, and they become friends. They tell Arthur, Daniel, and Rob, and they are proud of them. Arthur and his crew also start a bond with Mark P, because Mark P is annoyed by Buddy and Joe, because all they talk about is glasses. They include him in the group, and he is somewhat apart of the alliance, but he isn’t officially apart of it. Sometimes he workout with them, and sometimes he doesn’t. Sometimes, Arthur’s crew and Mark P’s crew workout together. Sometimes, the Scott crew workout with them. They are all great friends. Mark P’s crew are the Marks (Trumbo/Mark T), Iannetta, and the Buddys, and Scott’s crew is Jordan, Schwarber, and others. Mikey is alone. Jeremy is in the bathroom pooping, again. He has to poop in a bag, though he has almost lost enough weight to stop. Mikey has to poop. Jeremy is occupying the ENTIRE bathroom. Mikey wants to get in. Jeremy comes out of the bathroom. He apologizes for making Mikey wait. They talk. They become close friends. Last chance workout is TOUGH and CROWDED. There are contestants EVERYWHERE. They work hard. Mikey, Jeremy, and Rob are happy. And now, the comeback canyon weigh-in.

They are really excited to see Bob at Comeback Canyon! They will compete as a team against Jeff and Jackson next week, and the team that wins gets to stay and the team that loses has to go. Due to the length of the episode, the fans of the show were given the chance to vote for one person that crossed the line to have a transformation moment. They voted for Rick. Today, Rick weighs 199 pounds, losing 141 lbs. Here is a picture of Rick at the beginning of the show and now. He explains that he crossed the line because he had just gotten $25,000 and getting another $50,000 from the line is important, and he missed his family. He also said that he only wanted to lose like 50-60 more lbs, which he can easily do at home. Rick’s kids like playing football. Rick wants to weigh 170 at the finale, and complete the ironman.

Week 10

Rob is crying because Scott got eliminated. Jordan is too. Actually, EVERYONE is upset as Scott was a motivater, except Sam, Koli, and STUPID SONYA. She was overjoyed! She HATES Scott!!! She VOTED HIM OFF TWICE!!! She is so happy, she is like: In the morning of the next day, the contestants are told by this week’s host, J.B. Shuck, that they will be competing in their second temptation as a big group. They travel to a movie theater in San Diego. A premiere, actually. They all see many popcorn buckets. They also see this fat guy from season 2 named Josh, who will be leading them in the temptation. Since people have crossed the lines, and that the people were paired with random people (even though most of the contestants somehow got with one of their friends), one lucky contestant is going to have the chance to change that. ONE person will win. In over 200 popcorn buckets, Josh has hidden 10 Golden Balls at the bottom of 10 different popcorn buckets (with butter). There is a message on the golden balls. 6 are free movies for a MONTH (anywhere, and when they get home). Another is immunity. One is $5,000. One is a 2 lb advantage for their team. And one is the change teams. HOWEVER they want. They could switch every person if they wanted to. Mikey plans on playing because he wants to be with his dad more than anything. Arthur, Brendan, and those peoples plan on eating because they want to set the game up for them to win. Each popcorn bucket is worth 500 calories. Right when Josh is almost done talking, Rob shouts out, “GIVE ME THE GOLDEN BALL!!!” Then everyone starts to throw the buckets at each other, and eventually Jeremy finds a golden ball. It is free movies for a month. It gets stolen by Rob. Daniel gets the immunity. But, Rob steals it from him. Daniel cries. Rob gets it. Larialmy is getting popcorn thrown at her CONSTANTLY! She cries. Francelina sticks the popcorn in her hair. Ramon eats it while screaming and waving his hair. David is just calmly taking the popcorn and eating it, not looking for a golden ball. Arthur is sticking it in his ears. He gets another infection. Mark P and Mark T keep patting Mark C’s head. Mikey is doing it correctly, until he spots a golf cart outside. He runs and tries to catch it, but the golf cart is moving by itself! Mikey eventually falls and goes back to his popcorn eating. He finds a 2 lb advantage. THAT also gets stolen by Rob, even though it’s useless to him because he got the immunity. Tara also is eating her popcorn correctly. She gets $5,000. Koli is dancing on the table. Popcorn is being thrown everywhere. There is one popcorn bucket left. Michael V gets it. It is the change partners. This temptation lasts only 1 minute. Mikey eats 5 buckets for 1,500 calories. He actually ATE. Arthur actually ate 2, and Michael V ectually ate 4. Josh’s boss, Helen comes out. She fires him. He makes this face (WE NEED THIS PICTURE!!!):

Also after the temptation, Megan trips Josh. He is like:

Michael V has an hour to decide what he wants to do with partners. Mikey is PRAYING he is with his dad. It comes to the final decision. Michael V has decided what he is going to do. First, he switches Craig with Jesse, so it’s Jeremy and Jesse and Craig and Conda! Then, he makes it so it’s David and Adrian! (and Filipe and Grant Green). Then, he switches Grant Green with Mary right away, so it’s Filipe and Mary, and Kevin and Grant Green! Then, Michael switches Mark T and Mark C, so it’s Mark T and Iannetta and Mark C and Mark P! They don’t care, as they’re all friends. Then, he switches Larialmy and Sione, so it’s Larialmy and Mary and Sione and Filipe. Last and least, it is Mike (y), and Ro…(commercial break, Mikey is excited he might be with his dad)B. Ron was happy but then is disappointed. Mikey cries. It is Mikey and Rob and Ron and Blake. Old and young. Most of the people have no idea why he made the decisions he did. Welp, he did, and that’s all that matters. Meanwhile, Scott and Damien see Jeff and Jackson at comeback canyon. They are very excited to see them, and look forward to defeating them. Bob is training them all very hard and looks forward to watching them weigh-in. Now, the challenge. It’s a rope and tree challenge. They need to climb the rope as a team and they get a nutrition question, if they get it right, they get to swing across the rope, to next the tree. If not, they walk through a mud pit. There are 6 questions. The first team done gets video chats AND letters from home. Paul and Syndergaard win! Danni hates to have an INJURED person as her partner, even though she will be able to compete in challenges again next week. Paul and Syndergaard open letters from their families, and watch videos. At the last chance workout, Chism is sad. He wants to be with Jeremy. Kristin is starting to betray Chism! She is talking with other groups, because she thinks Chism is weak. Chism is determined to do great thigns this week, and maybe try and be with Jeremy at some point. And now, the comeback canyon weigh-in.

Team 1

Jeff: 295, 285, -10 (103) Jackson: 288, 280, -8 (98) -18 %: -3.09%

Team 2

Scott: 434, 418, -16 (158) Dane: 486, 468, -18 (131) -34 %: -3.70%

Scott and Dane defeat Jeff and Jackson! As expected, though. Scott and Dane are happy to stay for at least one more week. Jeff and Jackson did well, but are disappointed because they didn’t win. They are thinking they’re going home, but they get stopped a few miles down the road. They see Jillian outside! That’s all they see…TO BE CONTINUED…Now, the weigh-in. Vinny still won’t use his advantages, both his pound advantage and disadvantage to give to someone is worth 3 lbs.

Ramon and Francelina both gained 17 lbs! Francelina has lost NOTHING in 10 weeks! Frado was the biggest loser of the week (-5.70%). Ramon and Francelina fall below the red line and are eliminated. However, they see Bob at comeback canyon and are surprised and happy that they get another chance.

Week 11

Jeff and Jackson are stopped in the limo again. They see Jillian! They have arrived at Comeback Canyon 2! They are shocked. Here, they won’t compete as teams, but they will compete against each other. Only one person wins every week at comeback canyon 2. At Comeback Canyon, the 2 teams of Ramon and Francelina and Scott and Damien work very hard. Scott and Damien are more powerful, but Ramon and Francelina both gained 17 lbs last week and are due to lose a lot of weight this week. Back at the ranch, they are getting a surprise. They are getting a new contestant! It is the, MIKE TROUT!!! You know, Dane’s buddy.

He claims that after that 5K, he couldn’t stop eating!!! He went all the way up to 327! He does one workout. It is very intense. He doesn’t think The Biggest Loser is for him. Trout quits. Dane is sad, even though he is at Comeback Canyon. Dane cries. Daniel cries.

On the ranch, Ali the host this week, tells the contestants that this is student teacher week. The teacher learns from the trainer and teaches the student what they’ve learned, and the student learns from the teacher. The student is the only weight that counts for their team. To determine the students and teachers, there is a temptation. It is skittles, each is worth 20 calories. There are 1 million skittles in this huge box. Last time in season 9, only one person ate. The temptation starts. This time, EVERY SINGLE PERSON eats as many skittles as they can! They stuff skittles down their throats. Some choke and need the doctor! After 5 minutes, ALL the skittles are gone! Nobody knows who ate the most, so they have to do a pop challenge instead. They have to run up and down a hill as many times as possible. Whoever runs up and down the most times in 1 hours gets to pick all the students and teachers, and they also get to switch 2 more people on the teams. Everyone wants to win. Tara and Danni run up and down 15 times and win! They decide to switch Chism and Jesse, so it’s Kristin and Jesse and Jeremy and Chism. They made the decision because they knew Chism wanted to be with Jeremy and they don’t like Kristin because she talks like Jeremy, and everyone likes Jeremy, so they think that Kristin stole Jeremy’s weird talking skills. Now, they pick the students and teachers:

Damien (student) and Matt W Rachel (student) and Mandi Tara (student) and Danni Mike G (student) and Elizabeth Frado (student) and Brendan Syndergaard and Paul (student) David (student) and Adrian Kevin (student) and Grant Green Justin (student) and Hannah Jesse (student) and Kristin Craig (student) and Conda Daris and Austin (student) Arthur (student) and Daniel Ron and Blake (student) Sam (student) and Koli Sonya (student) and Tanya Cheryl and Darrell (student) Michael V and Michael D (student) Jeremy (student) and Chism Joe M and Buddy (student) Rulon (student) and Ruben Joe O (student) and JJ Mark T and Mark P (student) Vinny and Matt P (student) Julio (student) and Danny Sione (student) and Filipe Patrick (student) and Erik Iannetta (student) and Mark C Shay (student) and Courtney Mary and Larialmy (student) Mikey and Rob (student) Jordan and Schwarber (student) Mo (student) and Megan Kaylee and Woody (student)

The students get directions from their teacher partner. Dolvett, Kole Calhoun, Jen, and Jessie hope the contestants are doing what they told the teachers to do. Now, the challenge. It’s the ribbon one from season 9. The teacher has to wrap the ribbon around the park, and a student from another team will be unraveling it. The winner gets immunity and gets to switch one team’s student and teacher. Michael V tells Michael D that its a trick, like it was in his season, and that eventually they will have to unravel their OWN ribbon. They are just going to tie it around a tree, and that’s it. Everyone else is raveling it around the park. But, this time, it turns out that they are actually doing to draw another teams name! Michael D is VERY mad at Michael V. Sonya and Tanya get the Michaels ribbon and win. At the last chance workout, Michael V is goofing off and not working at all because his weight doesn’t count. Sonya and Tanya ask Sam and Koli for some advice on who to switch. Sam and Koli say the Michaels. Now, the comeback canyon 2 weigh-in.

Jackson: 280, 279, -1 (99) (-0.36%) Jeff: 285, 285, 0 (103) (0.00%)

They SUCKED this week! However, since Jackson actually lost weight, he is safe and Jeff is eliminated. Now, the comeback canyon weigh-in.

Team 1

Scott: 418, 399, -19 (177) Dane: 468, 454, -14 (183) -33 %: -3.72%

Team 2

Pink Team

Ramon: 374, 347, -27 (108) Francelina: 367, 367, 0 (0) -27 %: -3.64%

Ramon did the best, but Francelina continues to really struggle. Scott and Damien win again! Ramon and Francelina head to Comeback Canyon 2. They are happy to have a third chance. Now, the weigh-in. Vinny has a 4 pound advantage and 4 pound disadvantage. He has decided to use the 4 pound advantage this week, since the percentage will be higher. It will add to Matt P’s %. Sonya and Tanya switch the Michaels. Michael V cries. Daniel cries. 2 teams will fall below the yellow line and one will be voted off.

It is Lime (Mo and Megan) and Black (Frado and Brendan) below the yellow line. They both well plead their cases, but ultimately, Frado and Brendan are voted off as they are bigger threats. Frado and Brendan are shocked to see Bob at Comeback Canyon! They walk in the house and see their enemies, Scott and Dane. They are looking for a good fight next week. Today, Jeff weighs 207, has lost 181 lbs and hates Michael D. He is overcoming his fear of failure, as they show him taking a quiz online and getting an F, but being okay. He is trying to help Francelina cut her hair, but it just aint workin. Jeff wants to weigh 185 at the finale and look like Jeremy, while still hating Michael D.

Week 12

After the vote, the Richards and Jay Bruce guy tells the contestants to pack their bags, because they are going HOME! Sonya thinks he is taking it literally and the game is over, so Sonya starts to cry and actually quits! Anyway, the contestants are going home for two weeks. Both them and their partner must lose 5% of their body weight, or they will both be eliminated. Now, we head over to the Comeback Canyons. They don’t go home. However, each of the contestants can bring one family member from home. Scott brings his ENTIRE family, because you know, he’s the favorite. Dane brings Blaine. Frado brings Brendan. Brendan brings Patrick House. At Comeback Canyon 2, Jackson brings his mom. Francelina brings Jeff. Ramon brings a tanktop and Jessica……………….FROM SEASON 10!!! Ramon throws treadmills and bikes at her and screams while waving his hair because it’s the wrong Jessica. Jillian is really upset that Francelina brought Jeff. She is like, “JEFF WAS JUST HERE!!!” Jeff didn’t go to the airport or ANYTHING. He walked around a building. Now, the contestants head home. Everyone has a great welcome home party! Except for Michael V. His mom Maria is just like, “Oh hi Michael.” Maria, who didn’t re-appear on the show, has really struggled with her weight and went up to 646. She has gone to 639, losing 7 lbs. She plans on finishing her journey with Michael. Michael V’s grandmother is in the hospital again, so he asks how she is doing. He goes to visit her. At home, Conda’s daughter has stayed with her mom. Her mom is now fat! And her daughter is fat too! Daniel and David have the biggest welcome party! Daniel is like, “I’ve lost 143 lbs in 11 weeks!” Everyone cheers for Daniel. Then David is like, “I lost 3 pounds”. He gets a BETTER applause. They go to a place that sells hot dogs. David says, “I’ll have a uh, water”. So does Daniel. Daniel orders a salad, but David orders 2 hot dogs. He says it’s tough, but you just have to stick with the diet. A couple minutes later, Jeremy and Conda’s mom finds a package and is like, “I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU GUIEEESSSSEEE!!!!” EVERYONE gets the package. In the package, there are 4 things: a Jacobs Ladder, a box of 50 bags of cheetos, and a box of cookies, and a DVD. Everyone plays their DVD. It is a message saying they are going to climb a 10K (6.2 miles) up the Jacobs ladder. Buddy, Ron, and David aren’t medically clearwd to compete in the challenge. Kristin makes a speech saying “CHALEANGE” 13 times. Jeremy does too. Anyway, the winner of the challenge wins $10,000. But, everyone has an opertunity to add 5 min.+ to someones time. The cookies are worth 100 calories. The cheetos are worth 200 calories. Every cookie is worth 5 min. to someones time, and the chips are worth 10. The team with the lowest time wins the $10,000. Everyone thinks of Chism as a HUGE threat on the Jacobs Ladder. They see him in the gym, and he is a machine on it. He finishes 20 minutes before EVERYONE. Even people like Tara, Danni, and Scott. Here is how the temptation goes. Sam eats 5 cookies and gives 10 minutes to Koli and 15 to Chism. Koli eats 5 cookies and gives 10 to Sam and 15 more to Chism. Mark C eats 100 cookies and gives all the minutes to Chism. Daniel eats one bag of chips, and gives the other 49 to David, because since he’s not medically cleared, he can’t eat his own. Michael D eats everything. He gives it all to Chism. Rob eats 12 cookies and a bag of chips. He gives 15 minutes to Tara, 15 to Danni, 10 to Sam and Koli, and the rest to Chism. Arthur eats 2 bags of chips and 6 cookies. He gives 3 cookies to Tara, 3 to Danni, 1 to Blake, and the chips to Chism. Then he starts to stick the rest up his ears. Chism eats 50 bags of chips and 50 cookies, and gives 10 minutes to Sam, 1 minute to Koli, 5 to Tara, 10 to Danni, and the rest to himself. The next day, is the challenge. Everyone starts early in the morning, and after EVERYONE is finished. Chism is in the lead most of the time. Followed by Tara, Danni, Sam, Koli, Blake, and Daris. Everyone else is nowhere near first place. Chism has a 10 minute lead on Tara at one part. It is very hard climbing up the Jacobs Ladder for 6.2 miles!!! They are gonna be there all day. Sometimes, they need breaks (protein bars and water), but most of the time, they are on the Ladder. Chism has NO breaks at all!!! He finishes first with a time of 7:40:44. Tara is 2nd with a time of 7:59:16. And 3rd is Danni with a time of 8:04:56. Followed by Sam (8:09:57), Koli (8:10:32), Blake (8:13:34), Daris (8:20:12), and Daniel (8:30:20). Chism is in last place at the end……by far!!! He is so mad at his dad for eating to his name. But then again, he also ate for himself. Blake wins the $10,000. Mikey cries. He wanted a golfcart. Now back at comeback canyon, Frado’s kids come as a surprise (because he chose to bring Brendan who was already there). He is happy to see them, but his main focus is on B-R-E-N-D-A-N. Scott is happy to see his entire family there. Dane and Blaine work out very hard together. On Comeback Canyon 2, the right Jessica eventually comes, but Jessica from season 10 stays. The three of them work out. Buddy goes to his favorite fast food restaurant and orders his favorite food, a chili dog with fries. Only this time… HE EATS IT!!! Mikey is playing golf with Ron. Ron bought a golfcart just for Mikey! (how nice) However, the golfcart runs by itself again and Mikey is slow so he can’t catch it. Mikey cries. It is Austin’s 21st birthday AGAIN!!!!! He goes bowling with his friends. He eats the ENTIRE cake by himself! Daris is struggling at home. He sneaks food in the middle of the night and makes a whole video about it while wearing a tanktop, this time… WITH the hair! Tara’s room is a mess. She just moved into a new house. She drinks wine. Not just a cup, but the WHOLE BOTTLE!!! Chism sings the same song he did in season 13, with his friends. This time, Mark C sings too! They sing on a stage. Then, they play frisbee. Danni is running on the beach. She has THREE jobs now! She is talking to her dad. Meanwhile at Comeback Canyon 2, Jackson’s mom replaces ALL the food in the refrigerator with iceberg lettuce! Jillian makes Jackson go grocery shopping. Jeff goes with him. Jackson poops in a bush. Jeff mentions that he likes chips. The crunchier, the saltier, the better. He eats the entire bag! Joe O goes to an Italian restaurant with his family. His favorite food is an extra large cheese pizza. This time, he actually ORDERS it!!! He eats it all by himself. Courtney works at dairy queen. She eats everything on the menu. Not just a bite, but EVERYTHING!1!1! Jeff talks about how he watched all 17 seasons of the biggest loser in 5 days. Craig goes to the cemetery and puts flowers at his dad’s grave. Adrian works out 14 hours a day. He looks like Filipe! Now, the Comeback Canyon 2 weigh-in. 1 person will stay and 2 will go home.

Jackson: 279, 250, -29 (128) Francelina: 367, 367, 0 (0) Ramon: 347, 331, -16 (124)

Francelina lost nothing again! Ramon did a solid job, but Jackson lost 29 lbs! He is safe and Francelina and Ramon are sent packing. Now, the Comeback Canyon weigh-in.

Team 2

Frado: 246, 228, -17 (138) Brendan: 255, 244, -11 (118) -28 %: -5.59%

Team 1

Scott: 399, 374, -25 (192) Dane: 454, 430, -24 (207) -49 %: -5.74%

While Frado and Brendan both did a good job, Scott and Dane win once again! Dane and Scott are good. Now, the real weigh-in. If one of the partners don’t reach 5%, BOTH of them are eliminated. Vinny has a 5 lb disadvantage to give to someone. He decides not to use it, which could be big as it could’ve been used to send 2 people home.

Chism was the ONLY person not to reach their 5%. Mark C volunteers for Chism to go home, but Chism makes a speech on how he should stay and how him not going home is NOT him gaining all the weight back. Everyone is proud of Chism. However, everyone is sad that Jeremy is eliminated. He did the work and has to pay for Chism’s badness. Schwarber had the highest percentage on the ranch (-10.00%), but Jackson had the highest overall (-10.39%). Jeremy yells at Chism outside. However, they become friends again when they are stopped by Bob at Comeback Canyon! They are both excited that they get another chance. Today, Ramon weighs 301 and is skydiving with the hair. His hair gets stuck and he falls off the thingy with the random guy and has to open the parachute by himself. He wants to weigh under 200 by the finale. Francelina’s hair has gotten out of control. She can’t WALK now! She wants to cut her hair by the finale.

Week 13

At Comeback Canyon 2, Frado and Brendan enter. They are sad that at least one of them will go home. At Comeback Canyon, Jeremy and Chism are excited to take on Scott and Dane. Scott and Dane and Jeremy and Chism find out that they have to pick one of themselves to weigh-in this week, and that person’s weight will count. Back to the ranch.

Craig is getting emotional. He lost 15, the exact amount he needed. He also misses his good friend Jeremy. They were 13 buddies.

Craig walks out and leaves the show!!! The trainers call home and ask Craig why he quit. He doesn’t respond and he hangs up. Oh well… However, Craig HAS a transformation moment. Today, Craig weighs 320. He reveals the main reason he quit is because a new McDonalds opened up by his house. He wants to gain all of his weight back so he can come back on the show and quit again. Now, the contestants find out that they will be competing in a 10K this week. However this time it’s not at Angel Stadium. It’s at the evil Dodger Stadium (the one with Clayton Kershaw, Yasiel Pig, and the fat Korean). The team with the best average time wins $20,000 to split between them. Tara and Danni both finish at the EXACT same time with times of 49:45. They win! Tara hopes she didn’t get PAMMED!!! Meanwhile at Comeback Canyon, the teams are having trouble debating who is going to weigh-in for their team. Jeremy wants to weigh-in but Chism did horrible at home, so he thinks he should weigh-in. At Comeback Canyon 2, Jackson is fighting hard to stay. He did great last week. At the last chance workout, everyone is weird. Now, the Comeback Canyon 2 weigh-in.

Frado: 229, 225, -4 (142) (-1.75%) Brendan: 244, 238, -6 (124) (-2.46%) Jackson: 250, 241, -9 (137) (-3.60%)

Jackson wins again! Brendan and Frado are sent packing. Now, the players at Comeback Canyon weigh-in. They decide that Dane and Jeremy’s weights will count.

Team 1 (Dane)

Scott: 374, 366, -8 (200) Dane: 430, 412, -18 (215) -18 %: -4.19%

Jeremy needs to lose 15 lbs or more to stay safe.

Team 2 (Jeremy)

Jeremy: 338, 326, -12 (163) Chism: 278, 265, -13 (126) -12 %: -3.55%

Jeremy and Chism SWITCHED FIRST NUMBERS!!! However, if they had chosen Chism, they would’ve won. Chism is mad at Jeremy this time. Anyway, Jeremy and Chism are really surprised to see Jillian at Comeback Canyon 2. Jeremy is REALLY frightened. Now, the weigh-in on the ranch. Vinny has a 6 pound disadvantage he can give to anyone. He doesn’t. Then, the contestants find out the weigh-in will be a little different this week. The person with the lowest percentage overall will fall below the red line and one team will fall below the yellow. One person will be voted off from that team.

What a brutal weigh-in (besides Mo who was the biggest loser and has a -5.48%). Kristin had the lowest percentage of weight loss, so she is eliminated. It is Larialmy and Mary below the yellow line and since Larialmy gained weight, everyone elects to vote her off. They are shocked to see Bob outside Comeback Canyon! Today, Brendan weighs 225, losing 137 lbs. He is teaching his students how to lose weight and stay healthy. He has managed to stay good with his eating. He also has a new friend named Frado. He wants to lose 30 more lbs by the finale. Frado today weighs 220, losing 147 lbs, and is having fun with his family. He has a new friend. His name is Brendan. Frado wants to lose 15 more lbs.

Week 14

Everyone is still recovering from the horrendous weigh-in last week. However, a bad weigh-in usually results in big numbers the next week. Vinny has a 7 lb disadvantage to give to anyone, and he is likely going to use it this week. Jeremy and Chism are excited to go to Comeback Canyon. So is Jillian. At Comeback Canyon, Scott and Dane remain undefeated after 4 weeks. They are happy and plan on returning. It is only a few weeks away. Patrick is lonely. Frado and Brendan left weeks ago and now he thinks he is in huge danger of going home. He also thinks Vinny could be planning on giving him the 7 lb disadvantage, which could easily put him and Erik below the yellow line. Now, it’s the challenge. The contestants are going to run the exact same mile ranch 1 ran in week 1. The first person done wins a video of Chism at home in season 13! (and the meal plan for a year). EVERYONE wants to win! This is the best prize EVER! It is between Daris and Danni, but Daris finishes in 7:46. Danni finishes in 7:58. Sadly, in the last 2 places are Arthur and David, who finish together in 12:46. Not bad for their sizes though. Daris and Austin watch their Chism videos. Meanwhile, at Comeback Canyon 2, Jeremy and Chism are ready to workout!!! Jeremy is SCARED because he doesn’t want to face Jillian again after he NEVER did what she said or ate what she told him to eat. She says she has been DYING to get her hands back on Jeremy. *horn music plays* He is on the treadmill on a rope being held by her at a 15 speed and 15 incline. Then, she makes him lift 596 lbs. to show him what he used to be. She wants to make sure he never goes back. While he is failing to lift it, he holds it up about 3 inches, but then, Jillian shoots a potato at him and he drops it on his foot. He is barely okay, and he has a big fat purple bruise on his toe. Nobody knows, until Jackson makes him kill a bug with a stick and he falls on the floor. He gets a small surgery and he will be fine after a month. The, he has to do 389 push-ups, 596 sit-ups, 989 steps, 489 burpees, and a 26.2 mile run on the treadmill, which he completes in about 13 hours. He passes out. Jillian is proud of him. She talks to him and asks him why he never listened. She makes him promise he will do what she says. Now, the Comeback Canyon 2 weigh-in.

Chism: 265, 260, -5 (131) (-1.89%) Jeremy: 326, 315, -11 (174) (-3.37%) Jackson: 241, 229, -12 (149) (-4.98%)

Jackson somehow wins again! Jeremy and Chism are sadly eliminated. Now, the Comeback Canyon weigh-in.

Team 2

Kristin: 247, 235, -12 (125) Larialmy: 271, 259, -12 (130) -24 %: -4.63%

Team 1

Scott: 366, 343, -23 (223) Dane: 412, 392, -20 (235) -43 %: -5.53%

Scott and Dane do amazing and win once again! Kristin and Larialmy see Jillian at Comeback Canyon 2. Kristin talks weird. Now, the weigh-in. Vinny has a 7 lb advantage to give to anyone. He decides to finally use it, and give it to Patrick and Erik. Patrick is upset. Patrick cries. Daniel cries. One team will fall below the red line and be automatically eliminated this week.

Today, Jeremy weighs 289, losing 200 lbs, and is working at a bank. He is working very hard at home. Jeremy wants to lose more weight than he did in season 13 and make an attempt to win the at-home prize. To see how Chism is doing at home, go to nbc.com for more details.

Week 15

Kristin and Larialmy arrive at Comeback Canyon 2 and are afraid of Jillian. Cheryl and Darrell are prepared to beat Scott and Dane this week at Comeback Canyon (hahahahahahahaahhahaha). On the ranch, the contestants work out. It has been quite a season so far. J.B. Shuck tells the contestants that it isn’t even halfway done yet. Everyone is upset. This week, the contestants will once again compete in a race, their third in a row. They will be running a half-marathon! 13.1 miles. Everyone is upset that Jeremy isn’t here. 13 was HIS number!!! The winner of the challenge will get to pick a team to be below the yellow line this week. Everyone wants to win. Danni wins! Her time was 2:56:17, as she is still very fat. Her and Tara get to pick one team at the weigh-in to automatically fall below the yellow line, after the weigh-in is over. The only way to protect yourself from being picked is to have the highest percentage as a team. At Comeback Canyon 2, Kristin is making very loud and annoying Jeremy noises. At Comeback Canyon, Cheryl and Darrell are balancing fire on their heads. And now, the Comeback Canyon 2 weigh-in.

Jackson: 229, 222, -7 (156) (-3.06%) Kristin: 235, 233, -2 (127) (-0.85%) Larialmy: 259, 253, -6 (126) (-2.32%)

They go to comeback canyon! However, Kole Calhoun lost his favorite contestants, so he cries and leaves the ranch!!! Daniel cries. Today, Kristin weighs 289. She has gained a little weight since she has left the ranch. Actually, 52 lbs. But mostly MUSCLE!!! She wants to weigh 189 at the end. Larialmy weighs 230. She wants to weigh 189 too at the finale and do better than Jeremy and look like Jeremy.

Week 16

This marks the 40% mark of the the biggest loser.

At Comeback Canyon, Vinny and Matt P are determined to take down Scott and Dane, who haven’t lost since they’ve been here. Now, the challenge. They go to a huge grassy field. They have to run through the huge grassy field (half a mile). Then, they have a challenge to match everybody’s starting weight, but only one person on the team can do that. When they finish, they have to go another half mile, through a 3 foot mud pit. Then, they have to match everyone with their staring weights. The winning team gets to bring a family member to the ranch and $5,000! They also get to give $5,000 to another team. They start. It is a close race between Mandi and Rachel and Paul and Syndergaard, but Paul and Syndergaard got EVERYONES starting weights WRONG!!! They thought that DARIS weighed 756. But they were fast, and got caught up. Mandi and Rachel ended up winning. They give the other $5,000 to Julio and Danny. They were crying. Daniel cries. Juilo and Danny Cahill were overjoyed. Rachel brings her sister. Mandi brings Rudy. Meanwhile at Comeback Canyon 2, Jackson throws up on Cheryl and Darrell. There are only 2 weeks before 2 people from Comeback Canyon and one person from Comeback Canyon 2 come back. Now, the Comeback Canyon 2 weigh-in.

Jackson: 222, 216, -6 (-2.70%) Cheryl: 152, 151, -1 (-0.66%) Darrell: 250, 245, -5 (168) (-2.00%)

Mike G, Rachel, and Megan all cross the line. Rachel was motivated for her family but she didn’t care about them. Mike G wanted to go back home so he could make weird noises again and get a makeover. Megan wanted to weigh 250 at the end. Now, the weigh-in. Only one person will go home. The person with the lower percentage on the losing team will be eliminated.

Jesse loses 20 lbs! Woody falls below the red line as he had a worse percentage than Kaylee. He sees Scott and Dane at Comeback Canyon! He will take on them both. Maybe. Darrell weighs 200 and is cooking cheeseburgers for his family, but HE doesn’t eat them:) Cheryl gives all her clothes away. Even her new ones!!!! She only has one outfit: her orange biggest loser shirt and shorts. She gives away Daris’s clothes too. She currently weighs 137 and is starting yoga. She likes to cook BEANS.

Week 17

This marks the week that 2 people from Comeback Canyon and one person from Comeback Canyon 2 come back, but no one on the ranch knows.

At Comeback Canyon, we find out that one person will automatically be able to come back. At the end of the week, they will compete in a challenge, an athlete one. They have to play baseball, hockey, basketball, football, soccer, golf, and bowling (ha) throughout the week. It will not be shown on camera. Whoever gets the best average in all the sports will get a spot back and the other 2 will weigh-in on the ranch at the end of the week. Scott has a huge advantage in football, as Dane has a great advantage in baseball. Woody is an amazing bowler though. At Comeback Canyon 2, it will be the person with the highest percentage of Jackson, Vinny, and Matt P. Back to the ranch. This week, the contestants are no longer teams. They are one united blue team. The 53 contestants have to lose 340 lbs as a group, which is twice as much as the average on campus (170). Each contestant will have to lose 6-7 lbs. If they do so, EVERYONE is safe. If not, not one, but TWO people will be eliminated by falling below the red line. Now, the challenge. There are 3 giant lazers 5 feet, 8 feet, 10 feet in the air, and many little blocks. If they can make a tower passed each of the lazers, they will get 5 lbs. for every lazer they fit. But, if they don’t get to the 2nd lazer, then they get a 10 lb. disadvantage at the weigh-in. Scott is the leader, and comes up with the designs. They reach the first lazer in 20 min. The second one at 42 minutes. Then finally, the 3rd one at 58 minutes! They get a 15 lb. advantage!!! Now, we head over to Comeback Canyon 2. Vinny, Matt P, and Jackson all worked out extremely hard this week. It is time to see who will win. Will it be Vinny or Matt P, who just got here or Jackson who has been here for 6 weeks? Here are the results:

Vinny: 255, 242, -13 (184) (-5.10%) Jackson: 216, 202, -14 (176) (-6.48%) Matt P: 234, ?

It is not Vinny, but is it Jackson or Matt P, who lost nothing last week? TO BE CONTINUED… Now, to Comeback Canyon. One person won the sports. It was Dane! It will be Scott and Woody, a familiar face off.

Dane: 360, 345, -15 (282) (-4.17%) (doesn’t count) Woody: 522, 516, -6 (166) (-1.15%)

Woody is really happy with 6 and he thinks it will be enough. Scott needs to lose more than 3 to win.

Scott: 322, ?

Everyone is sad that Hannah is going, but NO ONE likes Michael D. Hannah and Michael D leave the building. Then, the lights go out. A light flashes at the door to the gym. They see Bob and Jillian. There are 3 people behind them. Then, a light flashes and they see Dane. Then, the 2 other lights come on. These 2 are the winners of the weigh-in.

The top 10 are Mike G, Rick, Vinny, Rachel, Jeremy, Adam H, Darrell, Jen J, David B, and Aybar. Now, the 10 people will run a mile like they did in week 1. The Top 5 people will move on. The top 5 are Rachel, Jen J, Aybar, Vinny, and Jeremy, who tripped Rick. Rick cries. Daniel cries. Now, the 5 remaining people will go on a bike and bike 26.2 miles. The top 3 will move on. Rachel, Jeremy, and Aybar are the first 3 done! Now, it is the endurance challenge. They have to stand on a thingy holding a key and balance on it. Whoever is the last one standing wins. Jeremy makes a speech using CHALEANGE and BALEANCE in the same sentence. At first, Jeremy WONT SHUT UP!!! He talks about random things such as peaches and his toes. He talks for an hour straight, and people want him to shut up. Later, he is still talking at 2 hours, and Aybar gets distracted and falls off. He now hates Jeremy. It is down to Rachel and Jeremy, and at 5 hours, RACHEL FALLS OFF!!!! JEREMY’S BACK!!!!!!!! Scott, Dane, Jackson, and Jeremy are all back. Now, Jen and Jessie are told by J.B. Shuck to GET OUT!!! Kole Calhoun comes back in. He says he didn’t want to come back because his favorites got eliminated, but he is forced to. They are going to 4 teams. However before they go to teams, there is a pop challenge. They have to do a 5K up the rope. The winner gets immunity…FOR THREE WEEKS!!!

It takes FOREVER! JJ really wants to win. This challenge lasts 9:45:36 and JJ wins! He doesn’t go on a team but he has immunity for three entire weeks, maybe the best reward ever. The group of Iannetta, Joe from season 12, and Conda are NOT happy. Even though Jeremy came back, Conda is furious. They don’t believe in people coming back. They go over the rules with the producers. They ALL QUIT!!! Now, it’s time for the teams. The 4 returning players are the 4 team captains. Bob is the black team. Jillian is the white team. Dolvett is the red team. And Kole Calhoun is the blue team. Bob has Scott. Jillian has Dane. Dolvett has Jackson. Kole Calhoun has Jeremy. They will pick who they want, then that person will pick the next person. First, Scott picks Erik. Dane picks Grant Green. Jackson picks Joe. Jeremy picks Mikey, since they are best friends. Erik picks Courtney. Grant Green picks Kevin. Joe picks Buddy. Mikey picks Rob. Courtney picks Mo. Kevin picks Sam. Buddy picks Mary. Rob picks Arthur. Mo picks Ruben. Sam picks Koli. Mary picks Jesse. Arthur picks Daniel. Ruben picks Rulon. Koli picks Filipe. Jesse picks Mark C. Daniel picks David. Rulon picks Justin. Filipe picks Adrian OVER SIONE! Sione cries. Daniel cries. Mark C picks Matt W. David picks Mark P. Mark P likes his team, but is sad he isn’t with the rest of the Marks. Justin picks Ron. Adrian picks Sione. Matt W picks Tanya. Mark P picks Mark T. Ron picks Elizabeth. Sione picks Shay. Tanya picks Mandi. Mark T picks Paul. Elizabeth picks Kaylee. Shay picks Blake. Mandi picks Patrick. Paul picks Syndergaard. Kaylee picks Tara. Blake picks Danni. Patrick picks Danny. Syndergaard picks Schwarber. Tara picks Daris. Danni picks Michael V. Danny picks Julio. Da Schwarber picks Jordan. Daris picks Austin. Michael V picks Damien. Damien is sad to be the last pick. Here is a list of all the teams:

Immunity: JJ

Black Team (Bob)

Scott Erik Courtney Mo Ruben Rulon Justin Ron Elizabeth Kaylee Tara Daris Austin

White Team (Jillian)

Dane Grant Green Kevin Sam Koli Filipe Adrian Sione Shay Blake Danni Michael V Damien

Red Team (Dolvett)

Jackson Joe Buddy Mary Jesse Mark C Matt W Tanya Mandi Patrick Danny Julio

Blue Team (Kole Calhoun)

Jeremy Mikey Rob Arthur Daniel David Mark P Mark T Paul Syndergaard Schwarber Jordan

The Blue Team is stacked! Even with Mark T. Now, it is time for the challenge. The 4 teams have do a marathon up the jacobs ladder as a team. The first team done will win an advantage. But not for them. For their TRAINER. They will also win the biggest loser meal plan for a year. They will win $20,000 to split as a team, AND video chats with their family!! The prize is not revealed until after the challenge is over. The challenge starts. Every team has decided they would lave a rotation. Jeremy is first for blue, and he is going pretty fast as he learned from the Jacob’s ladder king, Chism. Tara is going very fast for black, but stupid Daris makes her go off and Daris keeps falling off because he doesn’t think it’s worth it! He jumps into a pool. However, Joe has been better than EVERYONE. He goes 5 hours straight at a good pace. It is obvious that red is in the lead. Jackson goes on next, throws up, and comes off. It is bad that even at 202 Jackson is STILL throwing up. Paul goes on after Jeremy and Daniel work the first 5 hours at a steady pace. Paul is crushing it! He goes an hour and climbs up 4 miles! Here are the results for every team’s first 10 hours:

Black: 12.4 miles White: 8.6 miles Red: 17.2 miles Blue: 16.8 miles

It is very close between Red and Blue. Scott goes on next for black. Scott is on FIRE! But so are Paul and Joe. Scott is catching up. Syndergaard is next for blue. He gets his hair caught in the ladder and is forced to get off. Paul has to go back on. Blue is at 20.1 and red is at 20.2 and black is at 18.9, while white is at just 14.1, as Sam, Koli, and Danni got tired very fast. Joe finally goes off. Now, it’s Mandi’s turn and she goes 2 miles before Joe goes back on. After 24 hours, Red is at 25.5 miles and Blue is at 24.8. Black is at 23.7. Joe finishes it and red wins! It took 25:45:16. The other 3 teams are all very upset. We find out that the prize may not be very good for the red team. This week, there will be a red line and someone will fall below. For as long as they are 4 teams, Dolvett has the choice to choose someone else from ANY other team to go home instead of one of his own, or he could send one of his own home (but why would he do that hahahaha). Now, the moment of truth, the weigh-in. The person with the lowest percentage on the losing team will be eliminated, unless Dolvett uses his advantage. All the other teams are sad because they didn’t get the video chats with their families. Especially, Scott. But, there is a surprise. EVERYONE gets video chats with their family! They all cry. Especially Daniel.

Red lost the weigh-in and it is Tanya below the red line. Of course, Dolvett can pick anyone in the house to go home instead. Dolvett says, “Tanya, you’re not going home.” Tanya is shocked and happy. “Mary is.” Dolvett chose one of his own! Everyone is shocked. Mary didn’t even do anything wrong! Oh well. Mary is furious and sad. She makes these faces:

But, Mary is okay! Tanya was one of Dolvett’s favorites and Mary was not, so that explains it. Everyone is confused about why Dolvett did that though. He could have eliminated one of the bigger threats in the game for his team, but no he didn’t. Matt P currently weighs 200 and is playing right field in an old man’s softball league. He wants to weigh 156 at the finale in honor of Kole Calhoun. Woody now weighs 482 pounds, losing 200 pounds since his journey began. He wants to lose another 200, hopefully most of it by the finale. He also has a job as the principal of Country Hills Elementary School in Brea, CA. Today, Mary is down to 245, losing 238 lbs. She wants to maintain this weight, as this is Rob’s weight at the finale. She likes to scream and yell at the doctor. She is in Australia with her own cooking show!!!!

Week 19

Rob is very upset that his friend Mary went home. They liked to scream together :(. Kevin is also sad because they were Australian buddies.

They all work out, and Kole Calhoun wants to take all of the baseball players (Mark T, Paul, Syndergaard, Schwarber) on his team to play at Angel Stadium with him. They have a fun time, and Mark T cries because he misses baseball a lot. He teaches him how to do this things with the bat. Here is Kole Calhoun doing the Trumbo thingy:

Now, the challenge. They arrive at the beach. They have to hang on to a giant rope on the pier holding 10% of their weight. Soon, it will rise to 20%. Then 30%. Then 40%. And so on. The winning team gets to choose one person on each team to sit out of the weigh-in. Only one person on each team will be competing. Ron and Buddy are not medically clear, so they can’t do it anyway. (Like they would have picked them. Ha.) For Red it is Joe. For White it is Dane. Black it is Scott. Blue it is Paul. It is tough for everyone. Dane falls off after 27 seconds. Then Joe falls off after an hour. It is between Paul and Scott. Paul has the advantage, but slips. After 2:43:16, Paul falls off so Scott and Black wins! At the last chance workout, Grant Green falls off the treadmill. Now, the weigh-in. 1 person on the losing team will fall below the red line and be automatically eliminated. The other person will be under the yellow line with one other person, and their fate in the game will be decided on by their teammates with one other person. Black decides that Jackson’s weight will not count.

Sadly, Red lost again. Julio is below the red line and is automatically eliminated. It is Buddy and Danny below the yellow line. Danny misses his best friend Julio:

Since Danny doesn’t think he can finish his journey without Julio, he volunteers to go home. Everyone votes for Danny Cahill. Everyone is saddened by these eliminations as everyone liked Danny and Julio. Today, Julio is down to 227, losing 180 lbs. He is cooking healthy food for his family. He wants to get under 200 by the finale. Danny weighs 219, losing 211 lbs. He is still talking to Julio as they are amazing friends. Danny wants to weigh 191 at the finale again and lose what he did in season 8.

Week 20

This marks the 1/2 mark of the biggest loser.

Since this week is the 50% mark,

After elimination, the contestants are announced that on their last week, they will be competing in an IRON MAN. It is 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bike ride, and a 26.2 mile run. The winner of the ironman is automatically a finalist. This week, the contestants will compete in the biggest loser marathon, even though a LOT of people are still extremely fat. They will compete in singles for this. The winner of the marathon will win $10,000, $10,000 to donate to charity, and a choice of a 5 lb advantage for their team or letters from home. The top 10 will get $5,000. Daris is determined to break 4 hours. However, the marathon will be at the end of the week, so the contestants have the entire week to train for it. Now, the contestants revisit the doctor. Rob goes first. In week two, we found out that Rob had EXACTLY 5 years to live before his death date. He also yelled at the doctor. Now, while Rob still weighs 360 lbs, he got 30 years back of his life! His voice has also cleared up a little so he talks less underwater and he doesn’t get mad as fast anymore. Rob is really happy with all of the progress he has made so far. Jeremy is next. He has lost 213 lbs. A summary of Jeremy’s problems in week 2 were: diabetes, ebola, a risk of cancer, rabies, an 80% chance of a heart attack, sleeping trouble, breathing trouble a clogged chest, gout, asthma, muscle pains, stiff joints, kidney stones, skin tags, the chicken pox, gray hair, high cholesterol, the flu, typhoid, dysentery, tendonitis (everywhere), shin splints, stress fractures, a rash caused by stress, losing his eyesight so he might become a Buddy, 98% chance of a stroke in the next 5 years, can’t go more than a 3.5 on a treadmill, a risk of not being able to walk anymore, is on 44 medications, 40 of them are pills, 89% fat, and 7 surgeries since leaving the ranch. Now, he only has diabetes, 65% fat, sleeping trouble, and is only on 3 medications. He still has a little ways to go but his diabetes is very close to going away as well as his sleeping trouble. All he has now are sleeping trouble,an inner age of 35, and a lower heart attack risk. Before, Jeremy had 2% muscle, but he has gained 20 lbs of muscle so far on his journey. Next is Shay. Shay had the fifth highest body fat percentage at the beginning of the show, just behind Allie, Jeremy, David, and Arthur. She is now tenth and happy. Now, it’s David. In week 2, David was very emotional, which is rare for David, when he found out he had 200 lbs of muscle and 556 lbs of fat. Now, while still 413 lbs, David has 209 lbs of muscle and 204 lbs of fat! He is gaining muscle and losing fat, which is all that matters for him. He doesn’t care how much he weighs as long as he has a lot of muscle. The others also get good reports. Except for Ron. Ron, maybe one of the top 5 sickest contestants of the season, has lost a lot of weight, and a lot of fat, but has also lost muscle. The doctor is coming up with ways for Ron to gain some muscle that he lost back. Now, while Mikey is training for the marathon, running in the snow (it is snowing in LA!!!), he falls and hurts his leg! He sees the doctor, who just gave him a good report, and he finds out he can’t run the marathon, but he can walk it. Jeremy Britt eats snow. Ron’s goal is just to finish. Now, it’s MARATHON TIME! The contestants take off. Arthur, David, Mikey, and Ron start by all walking together. It is Joe, Tara, Danni, Scott, and Daris at the front at the first mile. Austin and Dane are catching up. By mile 5, Joe and Daris zoom ahead of anyone else with Tara and Scott just behind. Joe and Daris decide they will run it together, and race at the end, as they are both fast. Meanwhile when Arthur’s group decides to jog at mile 3, Ron can’t jog. The doctor has to see him and he has to take a break. After 2 hours, Daris and Joe are at 15 miles and Tara and Scott are at 14. It stays like this for a while. Joe and Daris are at 22 miles at 3 hours. They are running together and almost ready to battle the ending. Now, they both pass mile 26! They are ready to sprint the last .2 together, but that is NOT what happens at all. Joe picks up Daris by his hair and ties him to a tree! And throws sticks at him! Meanwhile, Tara and Scott are about to pass Joe, before Daris is completely tied to the tree, so Joe drops the rope and runs to the finish line just in time to claim first place. Daris is lying on the ground, as he fell 9 feet from the tree that Joe tried to tie him on. Daris wounded up in 4th place, but is extremely hurt. Here were the top 10 times:

Joe: 3:56:15 Tara: 3:58:26 Scott: 3:59:01 Daris: 3:59:46 Dane: 4:03:27 Austin: 4:13:14 Danni: 4:20:19 Paul: 4:44:44 Syndergaard: 4:54:52 Sam: 4:59:16

Daniel was a close 11th with a time of 4:59:54. Everyone else comes in except for Mo, Arthur, David, Elizabeth, Mikey, and Ron. Arthur comes in at a surprising 7:45:17, as he pushed himself very hard after walking the first 3 miles. Mo is next, finishing in exactly 8 hours. Then comes Mikey at 8:58:34. Then it’s David at 9:56:18. Elizabeth is struggling despite being one of the lighter people on campus and finishes in 11:37:42. Now, everyone comes out to help Ron. Ron finishes in 13:04:15, but he finished! Better than Buddy! Daris has to go to the hospital, therefore he has to miss the weigh-in. Therefore, he is below the red line and automatically eliminated. He lost 2 pounds anyway. Only one person now will fall below. Daris is REALLY broken. He broke almost EVERY bone in his body! Due to this, Joe loses all of his prizes. But he still won. He got NOTHING. Austin doesn’t think it’s fair. Tara gets the stuff instead and picks letters from home. Now, the weigh-in.

The black team lost and Austin fell below the red line. He and Daris are going home together. JJ has to choose to join a team. Any team but the blue or white team, because they haven’t lost anyone. He chooses the Red Team. Even though Dolvett has bad people (Buddy). Daris today weighs 246 lbs. He’s lost 100 lbs! Sure, he’s gained 62 pounds back…BUT MOSTLY MUSCLE!!! He has struggled at home due to his injuries, and went up to 276! He is losing the weight very well again and plans on beating his weight of 178 at the finale. Today, Austin weighs 220 lbs, losing 176 lbs. He is helping his best friend/neighbor, Lugian 64, who weighs 17,000,000 POUNDS! Them 2 and Ken are working hard together. Austin plans on winning the ironman and getting his spot as a finalist.

Week 21

Everyone walks out to the pool for their challenge. They see their trainers. They are above the pool on a thingy! The teams have to hold 1000 lbs total, or else the trainers fall into the pool! The first team to drop their trainer loses their trainer for the entire week. The second team to drop their trainer loses their trainer until the last chance workout. The third team to drop their trainer loses their trainer until they clean the entire ranch. The winning team gets no disadvantages, and also get letters from home. Now the challenge starts. Buddy is not medically cleared to compete. He makes his speech. Only 5 people on each team get to hold on. For Black it is Justin, Rulon, Ruben, Scott, and Tara are holding on. White it is Sione, Filipe, Sam, Koli, and Dane. Red it is Joe, Matt W, Patrick, Jackson, and Mark C. Blue it is Paul, Syndergaard, Schwarber, Mark T, and Mark P. Of all the people, Scott is the first person to let go. Red Team is first to drop. Dolvett is mad. He blames Jeremy. Black is next. White and Blue are left. White falls! They also blame Jeremy. Blue wins! They give all of their letters from home to the red team. However, they don’t give them their letters from home. They give them THEIR letters. Buddy gets Jeremy’s letter. It’s from Canda. She has gained all of her weight back and her daughter is fat too! Jackson gets Daniel’s letter. It has some of Daniel’s boogers when he was a little kid in it. Also, some chips and some of his tears!1!1! Mark C gets Mark T’s letter. It just says Q on it, as it is a letter. He also got a ticket to where Mark T gets his hair done. He burns it. He wants to burn EVERYONES HAIR so everyone can be a Mark like him. The Red Team cries. They already threw their OWN letters away, so they can’t open them. Arthur, Daniel, Rob, Mikey, Jeremy, and David are all sitting in a circle. Arthur is thinking about throwing the weigh-in to send the baseball players home. Meanwhile, Paul, Syndergaard, Mark T, and Schwarber are taking a walk discussing how they need to send Arthur or David home because they are threats. There are basically two alliances. Arthur and his people and the baseball players. (Everyone else doesn’t stand a CHANCE) They are all on the same team, and want to send each other home. LOTS of drama!!!! Potentially, everyone on the blue team could be throwing the weigh-in. The teams struggled without their trainers. Now, the weigh-in. The 2 people with the lowest percentage on the losing team will fall below the red line and be automatically eliminated.

Blue shockingly somehow beat red and white. Arthur and David both admitted that they threw the weigh-in, and that they didn’t know how they lost a lot of weight. White lost. Sione and Sam are below the red line. Koli is really sad to see Sam go. He blames it on Michael V, even though he lost 7 lbs. Today, Sione weighs 205 lbs. He plans on maintaining his weight. He wants to visit his country again, and is playing with his family. Sam now weighs 220 still and is in an orange room. He is working out on the beach with Rudy. He plans on maintaining his weight by the finale.

Week 22

Filipe is sad that Sione is gone, but he knows he is strong enough to finish his journey without him. Koli on the other hand is very upset about it. He is like, “Sam’s gone. I’m gonna throw the weigh-in.” Everyone thinks he is kidding, but he isn’t. At the workout, Buddy is upset. He has lost nothing 6 weeks in a row! He tells his story to Dolvett. Dolvett does some new things with Buddy. However, Buddy knows he is in trouble. Buddy is trying to create an alliance with the three Marks, since they all know each other so well. Mark C and Mark P are in. Since Joe B quit, Buddy hasn’t done much. However, Mark T said he will think about it, mainly because he is in another alliance with Paul, Syndergaard, and Schwarber. Now, the contestants will compete in a “pop auction.” Everyone has $1,000 Biggest Loser bucks. The first prize is a JB Shuck signed baseball card. The bid-starts at $100. Mikey is like $150. He gets it. Next, a Mark Trumbo bobblehead. It is for $200. The Marks all want it, but Mark T gets it for $340. Next is to bring a family member on campus. It starts at $300. Filipe says 320. Him, Dane, Paul, and Buddy all want it, but it is sold to Dane for $490. Dane brings Blaine. There is ANOTHER bring a family member starting at $300. Paul just shouts $1000! Paul brings AJ Pollock. They haven’t arrived yet. The next prize is to win the gym for only them this week. The other teams won’t get to use it. It starts at $250. Buddy bids $250 on it and wins! Too bad Buddy can’t use it anyway because he is injured and only uses the pool. Next, is a new car. It is worth $800. Jeremy bids $1000 and gives it to Patrick House. Patrick is very thankful. His old car was stolen by Mark P. Mark P apologizes. Next, is something worth a little less than a car, a GOLFCART!!!! It is worth $500. Mikey bids $1,000, but he doesn’t HAVE that money, so Grant Green bids $1,000, so Mikey can’t have it. Mikey cries. Daniel cries. Mikey’s old golfcart was ALSO stolen by Mark P. This time Mark P doesn’t apologize. Grant Green offers to sell the golfcart to Mikey for $1,000 REAL dollars. Mikey offers to trade all of his groceries for it, but Grant Green says NO, and poops on Mikey’s face! Mikey cries. Daniel cries. Next, is a trip on a cruise to Mexico. Jeremy wants it because he is Mexican, but he has no money. Justin bids $1,000 and gives it to Jeremy. Jeremy is so happy he is like:

Jeremy cries. Daniel cries. Justin will ALWAYS be his friend. Next, is a BOX OF GUMMY BEARS!!!!!!!! Koli bids $1,000. He eats them all. Next, is $1,000 REAL dollars!!! Rulon bids $650. It is worth $500. He gets it. Next, is a trip to New York. Blake spends $1,000. Next, is a package to see any sporting event playoff game for a whole year. It is worth $700, but Rob gets it for $1,000. Next, is a 5 lb. advantage for your ENTIRE team. Arthur bids $1,000. Blue Team gets a 5 lb. advantage. Next, the prize is immunity. It is worth $900 dollars. JJ wins immunity for $1,000. He ALWAYS has immunity. Next, is the mystery box. It is very interesting. It is worth $500. Daniel, Shay, Syndergaard, and David are all after it. David gets it for $730. They open it. It is an ICE CREAM SUNDAE.

He can choose to eat it or not. He eats it. All of it. Now, it’s a one pound advantage that grows every week. It is worth $800. Syndergaard wants it. He bids $1,000 and wins! Now, it’s the final prize. It is to bring not one, but TWO people back into the game! It is worth $1,000. However, it will likely go passed that. So, if you want to increase the bid, you have to get disadvantages, such as pounds, not being able to use the gym, being away from your trainer, and eating food. A 1 lb disadvantage adds $100, a week without a gym or trainer is $200, and eating a cupcake is $50. Koli is upset because he spent all of his money on gummy bears. He wants to bring back Sam. And also John C (for some unknown reason). Patrick starts by bidding $1,000. Michael V bids $1,000 and a 2 lb disadvantage. Patrick bids $1,000 and a 4 lb disadvantage and 2 weeks without the gym. Shay bids $1,000, a 5 lb disadvantage, and 3 weeks without a gym OR a trainer. Michael V adds 2 weeks without a gym. However, Patrick wins! He bidded $1,000, a 6 lb disadvantage, and 5 weeks without a trainer or a gym. He thinks it will be worth it. Patrick has decided to bring Frado and Brendan are back! They look the same as they did when they left campus. Frado and Brendan are immune this week, but Patrick has a 6 lb disadvantage for his team this week and he himself can’t use the gym or a trainer for 5 weeks. Frado was actually 225 when he left comeback canyon and now he is 235! Brendan was 238 when he left and now is just 224. At the workout, AJ (Pollock) and JJ become good friends. They’re both in Arizona. Now, the challenge. The 4 teams will compete in a relay with 4 different stages. One person will represent their team for each stage. Whoever finishes them all first wins. The first stage is swimming in a pool. They must swim 10 laps. Then, there is a mile run. It is a straight course. Then, there is an obstacle course with cones, a fire pit, and weights that must be carried away. Lastly, there is a balance beam. One person will have to walk across a 100 foot long balance beam. Then, everyone on the team has to run up a large hill and press a button saying they’re done. The winning team gets a 4 lb advantage. First, it's the swimming, and for Black it’s Ron, for White it’s Danni, for Red it’s Joe, and for Blue it’s Paul. It starts. Ron can't go ANYWHERE! He keeps flapping his hands and is not moving at all! While Ron is struggling, Danni, Joe, and Paul are quickly lapping him. They all finished 4 laps before Ron finishes 1! Danni finishes first, then Paul, then Joe. They are all first. Ron is only on lap #3. Dane does the run for white. Patrick does it for red. Daniel runs for blue. Dane finishes his mile in about 7 minutes. Daniel is right behind Dane. Patrick is slowly falling behind, but is still close. Ron is still swimming on his 7th lap. Now, JJ, Damien, and Syndergaard start the obstacle course. JJ decides to just give up because he has immunity, so it’s basically White and Blue left. Damien and Syndergaard are battling it. All of a sudden at the fire pit, Syndergaard’s hair catches on fire! He battles through the pain. It is extremely close between White and Blue, as Ron is on lap #9 in the pool and JJ is picking his toenails. It is Arthur doing the balance beam for Blue and Adrian for White. Adrian sucks at balancing, and Arthur is amazing, so Arthur finishes. The Blue team sprints up the hill and wins! They now have a 9 pound advantage at the weigh-in! After the challenge, Frado, Brendan, and Patrick meet again. Frado and Brendan thank Patrick for bringing them back. Then, they talk gameplay. They agree that they could add some people to add to the alliance. They talk to Mark P. They are actually being nice to poor little Mark! This marks the first time that this alliance is being nice to Mark P.

Mark P says he will think about it, but he doesn’t want to betray the Marks and Buddy. Now, the weigh-in. 2 people on the losing team will be eliminated.

It was really close, but Koli threw the weigh-in for Sam. Koli and Filipe are below the red line. Today, Koli weighs 188, and has lost 215 lbs. He is working out with Sam. Koli plans on being underweight by the finale. He eats only 100 calories a day, and works out all the time. He lost his job, and no one will hire him. Coach Mo will be replacing him. Filipe today weighs 225 lbs. Now HE works out 14 hours a day!!!:D He is with Sione in Tonga. They are working out together. Filipe wants to lose another 10 lbs by the finale. He is speaking at schools as well.

Week 23

This week, the contestants will be rearranged again, back into partners. But, they will be decided by temptation. At Olive Garden. They will order a starter, main dish, and dessert is optional. Whoever eats the most calories wins. It is obvious who is playing. Brendan, Michael V, Arthur, and Paul (And David, but he just wants to eat). For starters, everyone gets the salad, except Brendan who orders the Antipasto salad with CHEESE and Arthur, Michael V, and Paul who order the chicken soup. Next, come the breadsticks!!! Nobody has any. Paul gives up. So does Arthur. It is down to Brendan and Michael V. Brendan has 6. Michael V has 6. David has 17. He is like:

Next, is the entrees. Everyone orders something healthy like salmon or chicken. Michael V orders the tour of Italy.

Brendan orders the chicken alFRADO.:DDD

He tells Michael V to stop eating, and he will give him who he wants. He wants to be with Mikey, because they are good friends. Next, is dessert. Nobody orders it, but Brendan who orders the mini dessert trio, and Mark C who orders the chocolate mousse cake!!! It is as smooth as his HEAD!!!!!!!! Brendan wins by FAR!!! He gets to pick the teams. Here are the teams:

Black: Frado and Brendan Green: Jeremy and Patrick Brown: Michael V and Mikey Orange: Daniel and David Red: Scott and Blake Purple: Rulon and Mark C White: Danni and Rob Blue: Schwarber and Jordan Yellow: Jackson and Buddy Angel: Dane and Justin Maroon: Arthur and Paul(ey) Aqua: Syndergaard and Grant Green Pink: Mark P and Mark T Pickin n Poopin: Ruben and Tanya Grey: Kaylee and Elizabeth Poop: Ron and JJ Lime: Mo and Joe Indago: Kevin and Mandi Cream: Matt W and Jesse Barf: Adrian and Damien Macaroni: Tara and Courtney Erik team: Erik and Shay

Danni is upset. She hates to have a partner that screams. Kevin is extremely upset that Grant Green is not his partner. He may throw the weigh-in! A lot of people are mad at Frado and Brendan because they made some gameplay decisions, such as putting Tara with someone with horrible numbers like Courtney, and putting 2 horrible people (Ruben and Tanya) together. Now, it’s time for the chaleange. They are all at the big pool. There are 32 puzzle pieces and each team will swim a total of 1600 per partner. They need to bring back one puzzle piece, and the other partner has to answer a nutrition question. The other person can’t go to their next piece until they get their nutrition question right. Whoever wins, gets whatever their puzzle spells out. Buddy, Ron, and Tara aren’t medically clear to compete. Tara is injured AGAIN because Jordan pushed her down the stairs because he didn’t want her to win more challenges than SCOTTY!!!!!!!!

Scott and Blake win!1!1!1! He would like to thank Jordan for that one. However, when people find out what happened, Jordan gets a one pound disadvantage. He and Blake win immunity!!! Tara cries. Jordan cries. Daniel cries. Now the weigh-in. One team will fall below the red line.

Today, Kevin weighs 286 and is back in Australia as a cook. He is helping his best friend lose weight too. His friend weighs 647 lbs. and he wants to be at 247. Mandi is at home playing with her family and Rudy. She weighs 135 and wants to maintain that.

Week 24

After Kevin and Mandi’s elimination, everyone is emotional especially Grant Green. Also, Matt W heard some awful news. He is having a major family emergency and he is going to be gone for a long time. Due to his circumstances, he can return as long as its within the next 6 weeks. But that’s not all. The trainers are asked to stay outside except for Bob and Jillian (Yes, they are kicking out Dolvett and Kole Calhoun). They are going to Blue vs Black. Bob is the Blue Team and Jillian is the Black Team. And THEY are going to be picking their teams. They will flip a coin to see who goes first. One player will win immunity. Jillian wins. Here are the teams:

Team Jillian

Mark C Jackson Buddy Ruben Tanya Joe O Blake Tara Shay Michael V Justin Rulon Danni Grant Green Kaylee Elizabeth Ron Courtney Damien Erik

Team Bob

Mark P Arthur Daniel Rob Scotty Paul Syndergaard Schwarber Mark T David Jeremy Mikey Patrick H Frado Brendan Jordan Dane Adrian Jesse JJ

Immunity: No

Grant Green cries. He hates his team. He wants to be with his fellow baseball player friends and JEREMY. Because they have the same hair. But that’s not all. There is a LINE!!!! This one is worth $75,000 and a NEW CAR!!!! Adrian and Damien cross it RIGHT AWAY. Adrian hates Jeremy so he doesn’t want to be on his team. Damien just wants to go home and eat cheetos. After the line, the contestants learn that 2 non-contestants or baseball players have begun their journey at home. If they lose more than the person with the lowest percentage on campus, they are back. Their names are Eugene (Jack the kid’s Dad), and Mr Deere. The person with the lowest percentage is Kaylee (-28.83%). Eugene weighs in first. His starting weight was 326. He needs to lose more than 93 pounds. He loses 30. He doesn’t make it. Next is Mr Deere. He weighed 596. He needs to lose more than 171. He came very close, losing 169. He looks forward to continuing his journey at home. He looks forward to seeing us again. In 6 months. 150, 160 pounds lighter than this. Now, the challenge. They go outside to the pool area. They think that they are going to do the same thing as a few weeks ago, where their trainers are on top of the thingy and the contestants have to hold them up. But NO!!! This time, their trainer will be holding the contestants up. And if the trainer lets go, EVERYONE falls off into the pool. Whichever team loses has to leave the ranch for the ENTIRE week! The challenge begins. The trainers are having trouble holding the thingy up. It takes 2 minutes before Jillian lets go! ALL OF HER CONTESTANTS FALL IN THE POOL! There is huge splash. There is no water left in the pool. They find out they are being sent to Las Vegas. They are OVERJOYED!!! They HATE the ranch!! They stay in a nice hotel. They go to the buffet. They eat pretty healthy except for JJ. David eats some cake, hot dogs, and fries, but that’s it. JJ eats every dessert. JJ smokes. He dances too. Everyone else swims in the pool. They get kicked out for being too fat. Then they go to Circus Circus. They break all the rides and eat all the pizza. Well, JJ eats it all. Everyone else has some self control. Except David. He eats a LITTLE bit. JJ eats a lot. The Reno Aces are playing the Las Vegas 51s. They see Paul. They want him to play for the Reno Aces, the Diamondbacks Triple A. He goes 1-5 with 3 strikeouts. LIKE TROUT NORMALLY DOES!!!!:DDDDDDDDD Paul cries because he still thinks he is too fat to play. He is not good anymore. They have a good time, and they are telling Jillian NOTHING!!!!! And now the weigh-in.

Team Bob wins, but Jordan fell below the red line. Schwarber cries. He lost his best friend. Daniel cries. For Team Jillian, Grant Green is voted off, because his hair has grown back and gotten out of control and they didn’t want him to make it to makeover week. Today, Grant Green weighs 175. He is back to his very skinny ways. He has signed a MAJOR league deal with the Boston Red Sox!!! Right when he got home, Grant Green got a makeover! He cut his hair and shaved his beard. Grant Green’s goal by the finale is to maintain his somewhat healthy weight of 175. Jordan today weighs 200. He is playing old person baseball and is teaching his son to play baseball now. He wants to get drafted by a MAJOR league baseball team even though he is like 34. He wants to weigh 160 at the end and be skinnier than Grant Green.

Week 26

Bob’s team is called into the elimination room. They find out they are going on a trip. TO THE WHITE HOUSE!!!! They are going to go on a very fun vacation. They arrive at the white house. They get a tour of the white house. They meet president Donald Trump. He wants to deport Jeremy!!!!! He is Mexican. HE LOOKS LIKE TC!!!!!!! Daniel cries. Next, they have a choice. They can work out with their trainer OR go to a Nationals game. Everyone wants to go work out with their trainer except Jeremy and David. Next, is the chaleange. They will be running the mile. In the order they come in, they will choose if they want to be on Team Bob or Team Jillian. Buddy is not medically cleared to compete, so the person who finishes first gets to decide his fate. Justin starts to get cramps. Kaylee HATES the mile. She quits. Here is the order they come in:

Scotty: 6:04 Dane: 6:27 Tara: 6:35 Daniel: 6:59 Mark T: 6:59 Paul: 7:01 Mark P: 7:02 Danni: 7:12 Syndergaard: 7:20 Joe O: 7:35 Rulon: 8:45 Rob: 8:48 Mark C: 9:23 Jesse: 10:13 Blake: 10:36 Mikey: 11:02 Schwarber: 12:20 Jeremy: 13:00 Erik: 13:37 Arthur: 15:16 Patrick H: 16:05 Frado: 16:05 Brendan: 16:05 Courtney: 16:32 Shay: 16:33 Jackson: 16:59 Ruben: 17:11 David: 17:19 Michael V: 19:18 Ron: 20:05 Elizabeth: 20:07 Mo: 20:11 Justin: 20:12

Week 28

This is face-off week. One person will get to pick who faces off against who. Whichever team has more points wins. The losing team must send one person home, but there will also be a red line for the person with the lowest percentage. It will be determined by a temptation. They arrive at a table full of all of their favorite foods, including; Buddy’s chili dog and fries, Jeremy’s cheese, Jackson’s poop, David’s hot dogs (and water), Brendan’s chicken alFRADO (THAT’S FRADO’S FAVORITE TOO:DDD), and Paul’s D-Bat dog from Chase Field. Whoever eats the most calories will get to pick the matchups. They ALL eat their favorite foods! Syndergaard eats 3 steaks and a lil bit of his own hair that he cut off during makeover week. Schwarber eats dinosaurs (chicken nuggets). Jordan cries. Daniel cries. Frado eats 2 chicken alFRADOs. Brendan is upset that he doesn’t have anything named after him. :(. Mikey eats potato chips and 37 doughnuts. Rob eats bananas and Mr Tom. Patrick eats a pink starfish. Patrick cries. Not the house, not Corbin, but STAR. Ultimately, David wins. He ate 10,560 calories. Here are the face offs:

Rob vs. Rulon Schwarber vs. Ruben Mark T vs. Tara Syndergaard vs. Ron Mark P vs. Blake Frado vs. Erik Brendan vs. Jackson Jeremy vs. Courtney Jesse vs. Tanya Mikey vs. Mark C Patrick vs. Danni

Everyone on Team Bob is upset that David didn’t pick anyone for him to go up against, as he has the most weight to lose, but he said that he ate so many calories that he could pull a bad number. Next is a challenge. They have to each do a mile on the rowing machine against their face off partner. Whichever team gets more points will get a one-night luxury at a hotel. Buddy is not medically cleared to compete due to a stress fracture in his knee, so David and Daniel will both not compete too. Daniel cries. But, he is happy that his best friend David is also not competing. They make fun of Buddy. Buddy cries. Daniel cries. Team Bab wins! They are bad. They drink, eat badly, and don’t sleep at all. Bob is not happy when they get back to the ranch. They have a tough last chance workout. Now, the weigh-in.

Schwarber: 279, 282, +3 (230) Ruben: 294, 280, -14 (282) Point: Jillian

Despite the luxury that Bob’s team got, they still won 10-5, however, Schwarber fell below the red line, which makes people sad, but Schwarber says it is okay because he didn’t even want to lose more weight since he reached his goal and has been working on adding muscle. Jillian’s team has to vote for someone to go home, and the votes at first are evenly distributed between Buddy and Erik, but they viewed Erik as more of a threat, resulting in him being eliminated. Today, Schwarber weighs 275, losing 237 lbs, and has reclaimed his spot as the Cubs’ left fielder and is playing better than ever. He is a little bit fatter than he was before, but he has a lot more muscle as well. Erik, unfortunately went back up to 374 just a month and a half after he was eliminated, but he is doing much better now and is around 300 and hopes to get to 220 by the finale. The host then tells them that they are going to Hawaii!

Week 29

After the elimination of Schwarber and Erik, they have some exciting news to share. Matt W is coming back! Also, they are going to Hawaii for a week! They are going to be faced with temptation, and are going to have to learn how to adapt to new conditions. Jeremy attempts to play a ukulele. He sounds REALLY bad and gets booed. Jeremy cries. Daniel cries. Bob and Jillian work the contestants out on the beaches. Patrick House eats a dolphin. A whale almost attacks Jeremy! He fell down but he was able to swim away. He is happy because he couldn’t have done it when he was 989, or even 596. While working out, Matt W comes back. We found out his entire family was in a car accident and were in critical condition, but they all survived. However, Matt W has struggled to keep the weight off due to the stress, and went from 206 to 239. He has immunity this week. Now the challenge. It is an ocean relay race. Each team will have one person carrying a small boat on their back. 2 people will go into the boat and have to raft them to shore 0.5 miles away. Then, 3 people will have to do a one mile run, who will each give a high-five to 3 new people who will swim 1 mile to the finish line. Only 9 people on each team are competing. The winner of the challenge wins $10,000 for each person on the team. Mark P is holding the boat for Bob and Mark C will hold the boat for Jillian. When they hear On Your Mark, Paul and Syndergaard jump on Mark P and Danni and Tara jump on Mark C. Paul and Syndergaard are WAY stronger, so they reach Scott, Mikey, and Schwarber for the running before Team Jillian is even halfway. Then, they finish the mile, while Tara and Danni finish the rafting finally. Blake, Rulon, and Michael V (ha) are running for them. Jesse, Frado, and Brendan then finish the swimming. Bob’s team wins! Now, the weigh-in. There is a red line for everyone individually and the team that loses has to vote to send someone home.

Matt W (Immunity): 239, 231, -8 (155)

Team Bob

David: 317, 309, -8 (447) Paul: 244, 239, -5 (345) Arthur: 299, 291, -8 (455) Mark T: 288, 281, -7 (263) Rob: 296, 280, -16 (321) Patrick: 263, 258, -5 (342) Jeremy: 224, 221, -3 (268) Scott: 262, 250, -12 (316) Mark P: 234, 230, -4 (291) Syndergaard: 249, 245, -4 (299) Jesse: 184, 182, -2 (187) Mikey: 285, 269, -16 (319) Daniel: 272, 261, -11 (293) Frado: 199, 198, -1 (169) Brendan: 199, 199, 0 (163) -102 %: -2.67%

Team Jillian

Courtney: 218, 220, +2 (215) Ruben: 280, 269, -11 (293) Michael V: 230, 224, -6 (333) Elizabeth: 192, 186, -6 (58) Buddy: 260, 260, 0 (143) Tara: 152, 147, -5 (192) Shay: 261, 255, -6 (321) Blake: 172, 165, -7 (186) Jackson: 165, 160, -5 (218) Tanya: 171, 164, -7 (125) Mark C: 189, 181, -8 (210) Danni: 166, 158, -8 (200) Ron: 248, 241, -7 (189) Rulon: 234, 229, -5 (245) -79 %: -2.69%

It was close, but Jillian’s team barely won, and Mikey was the biggest loser of the week. However, Courtney fell below the red line and is automatically eliminated. Before the vote, everyone is split up, as Arthur and Jeremy’s group wants to send Paul home, the Baseball group wants to send Arthur or David home. Ultimately, Arthur received 5 votes, Paul received 5 votes, David received 3 votes, and Frado and Brendan each received one vote. Since there was a tie, Jillian’s team got to choose who would be sent home, and since they aren’t very smart, they choose Brendan, who had the lowest percentage of weight loss. Today, Courtney weighs 199, losing 236 lbs and she is the lowest she has been since elementary school. She wants to lose 50 more pounds by the finale. Brendan currently weighs 180 and looks like Frado. He now owns his own restaurant and as created the Chicken alBrendan. He wants to weigh 170 at the finale. After elimination, they are told that they are going to the Dominican Republic!

Week 30

The contestants arrive in the Dominican Republic. They are told that it is baseball week. They will play in a game against Dominican baseball greats. All of the trainers (except Kim) are back! Also, they are changing teams. They are going into teams of 3. They won’t get to choose their teams, the teams will be determined by the spinning of a wheel. The first person selected gets to choose their trainer AND their team. They also get immunity. However, after that, the teams will be randomly chosen and the person with the highest percentage of weight loss per team will get to choose their team afterwards. The last person that is not picked is automatically eliminated. First, it lands on Mark T. He chooses Kole Calhoun as their trainer, Mark C and Mark P as his teammates, and the color red. Next is the black team. Buddy is the first member of the black team. Ron is also chosen. Then Elizabeth. Buddy hates his team. He wants to be with the Marks. Next is the purple team. Ruben is the first picked. Then Shay. Then Arthur. Arthur absolutely HATES his team. He wanted to be with his best friend Frado. Arthur and Frado have gotten closer since Brendan went home. Next is the yellow team. Jackson is the first picked. Then Tanya, followed by Scott. Next is the aqua team. Paul is chosen first. Then Syndergaard, followed by David. David likes his team. The aqua team is very happy with how things turned out. Next is Green. Mikey is first, then Jeremy, then Rob. They are the one of the greatest, if not THE greatest, trio in the house. Patrick cries. He misses his fellow friend Brendan. Next is the pink team. Tara, Danni, and Blake are chosen in that order. Next is Orange. It is Daniel, Michael V, and Rulon. Last is the brown team. It is Patrick, Matt W, and Jesse. Jesse is relieved to not be last. Sadly, this means Frado is eliminated. He is fine with that, because he doesn’t have any more weight to lose and he misses his best friend Brendan. Here is the list of the percentages in order.

Arthur (-60.99%) Michael V (-59.78%) David (-59.13%) Paul (-59.08%) Jackson (-57.67%) Patrick: (-57.00%) Tara (-56.64%) Danni (-55.87%) Mark P (-55.85%) Scott: (-55.83%) Shay (-55.73%) Syndergaard: (-54.96%) Jeremy (-54.81%) Mikey (-54.25%) Mark C (-53.71%) Rob (-53.41%) Blake (-52.99%) Daniel (-52.89%) Ruben (-52.14%) Rulon (-51.69%) Jesse (-50.68%) Mark T (-48.35%) Ron (-43.95%) Tanya (-43.25%) Matt W (-40.16%) Buddy (-35.48%) Elizabeth (-23.77%)

Arthur is first representing purple. He chooses Jessie as his trainer, because he has the same name as his dad. And he misses his dad. Michael V is representing orange and picks Jillian. David for aqua picks Dolvett. Jackson for yellow chooses Bob. They gat bab. Patrick for brown chooses Jen. For pink, Tara picks Brett. Jeremy for green picks Anna. Ron, Buddy, and Elizabeth are stuck with Cara. They cry. They get to do a LOT of boxing. Now the challenge. They are playing in a game. They are introduced to 6 baseball players, three American and three Dominican. They see C.J. Wilson, Collin Cowgill, and Garrett Richards. Matt W faints. He is okay. Also, Albert Poophole, David Ortiz, and THE Matthew Marder. He poops in his pants and leaves. He is replaced by Bartolo Colon. When the contestants see Bartolo Colon, they think they are getting a new contestant. Bartolo cries. Daniel cries. The teams are split in half, with Black as the umpires since they had the worst percentage and Buddy can’t compete. The winner of the game gets tickets to the 2019 World Series. Aqua, Green, Orange, and Red win! Now the weigh-in.

The contestants are happy to be back on the ranch. This week is Music Week! They will be competing in a karaoke contest for the challenge. At the workout, Jeremy is getting emotional. He lost his good friend Patrick. Michael V is REALLY struggling this week. He found out that Maria hasn’t lost any weight and is up to 700. He is eating all the stuff from his fridge.

Sadly Michael V fell below the red line and is automatically eliminated. The Brown team lost again and Matt W had the lowest percentage so he is heading back home. Also, Cara’s last person is Jesse, so if he goes home, she goes home. Today Michael V weighs 199, the first time he has been under 200 since middle school. He is helping Maria lose the weight again, who is now 596 pounds, losing 50 lbs total. Matt W now weighs 205 pounds. His family is back to normal and he is pursuing a career in racing. He wants to look EXACTLY like C.J. Wilson at the finale.

Week 32

This week is Superhero week! Half of the teams will be dressed as superheroes for the week, while the other half of the teams will be dressed as villains. Each team will randomly select a superhero or villain through cards. The team that corresponds with the villain of that team will face the other team at the weigh-in. Each team can choose which person will be the superhero or villain for the week, but before they draw the card. They will have the only weight that counts. The teams that lose head-to-head at the weigh-in will each have their player with the lowest percentage face a yellow line. Each team will vote for one of the players. Also there will be a red line for the person with the overall worst percentage. There are 9 teams, so the team that selects the immunity card will not participate in superhero week and be immune at the weigh-in from both the red and yellow line. The Red team draws first. They choose Mark C, who draws Lex Luther. Next is Green. Green is next, and Jeremy is chosen. He is the Holk! Next is purple. They choose Ruben. He is Black Panther! Next is Aqua. Syndergaard is Thor. He is happy. Jesse is next, and he is Thanos! He is paired up against Jeremy. They both are sad since they are best friends. Next is Orange, who choose Rulon, who is T’Challa, the enemy of Black Panther. The Black team gets immunity! They are relieved since they are so awful. Next is Yellow, where Scott draws Superman! He will be paired against Mark C. Last is Pink, where Tara is Loki, who will face Syndergaard. They have to work out IN their costumes! Cara is working very hard with Jesse because if he goes home, she goes home. Next is the challenge. It is a superhero quiz. Only the superheroes and villains will compete in the quiz. The Black team will not compete since they have immunity, although Buddy wasn’t medically cleared to compete anyway even though it’s a quiz. The quiz consists of superhero questions as well as nutritional questions. The winning team wins $5,000 each and the representative gets to star in a new Superman Marvel Movie. Everyone knows the superhero questions but NOBODY knew the nutritional questions! Except for Scott, who once again wins a challenge. He is so excited to be in the movie. He gets to star as Superman! At the weigh-in, Scott lost 9, beating Mark C’s 4. Ruben lost 6, which lost to Rulon’s 7. Syndergaard only lost 4, which gets crushed by Tara’s ridiculous 15. Lastly, Jeremy loses 4, who feels bad because he thinks he let his team down, until Jesse shockingly only loses 1. Tanya gained 5 and fell below the red line. For Red, Mark C fell below, for Purple Ruben fell below, for Aqua David fell below, and of course Jesse fell below for brown. Ultimately Paul and Syndergaard elect to vote David off as he is the biggest threat, while Jeremy chooses Ruben since he is not close to him at all, and everyone else chooses Jesse because he is closest to his goal weight. Also, Cara going home is icing on the cake. No one liked her. Jesse is voted off. Tanya currently weighs 155 and is grateful for the second chance Dolvett gave her by sending Mary home instead. She is adjusting well to home lifestyle and wants to weigh 135 at the finale. Jesse currently weighs 155, losing 214 pounds since starting. He wants to maintain his weight for life and start his own weight loss company. Cara today weighs 250. She got fat and stopped training after being kicked off the show when Jesse went home. She wants to be a contestant the new season “The Trainers get Fat.”

Week 33

After Jesse’s elimination, the contestants are told that they are going to singles! For the most part they are happy. There are only 22 contestants that are still standing. They are back in their original colors, so there are some duplicates, but nobody really cares. The challenge this week is the Car Pulling Challenge! The Racing guy shows up. Whoever pulls their car the fastest gets $20,000 and gets their face on a Wheaties Box. Rulon really wants this badly since he lost in season 11. It is extremely close between Rulon, Tara, and Scott. However, in the middle of the road, Scott steps on a safety pin! He gets a cut and is okay, but this takes him out of the challenge. It is so close between Rulon and Tara, but Tara won! Rulon is devastated. However, they are told that there is another way to have their face on the wheaties box! There is another line! Nobody goes near it, except Rulon, who thinks about it. Right before the temptation is about to end with no one crossing, Rulon steps over. He crossed the line to be on a Wheaties Box (one of his dreams). The trainers are furious when they find out Rulon crossed the line, as they thought he could have won the entire show. Oh well. At the weigh-in, they find out there is a yellow line and a red line. However, the yellow line is halfway up the board! 10 will be above the yellow line, 10 will be below, and 1 will be below the red line and automatically eliminated. The contestants above are Arthur, Paul, Shay, Scott, Mikey, Rob, Daniel, Jeremy, Ruben, and Danni. The 10 below the yellow line are Jackson, Mark P, Mark T, Mark C, Blake, David, Ron, Elizabeth, Buddy, and Syndergaard, while Tara shockingly gained 2 and was automatically eliminated. The players under the yellow line will compete in a challenge. The biggest loser of the week gets to save one person from competing in the challenge, which is Shay who lost 16 pounds. She chooses Blake as she is part of her girl alliance. The contestants have to compete in a one mile run while holding the amount of weight this week over their heads. The last 2 people are up for elimination. Buddy is not medically cleared to compete, so he is up for elimination, meaning only the last person will be up for elimination. Despite Mark C losing nothing, he trips and falls down! He blames Jeremy, but it wasn’t his fault as he wasn’t even in the challenge. Jeremy cries. Daniel cries. The contestants face an impossible decision between Mark and Buddy, who have been best friends for a long time. While Mark P and Mark T vote for Buddy, Mark C is seen as a bigger threat and is voted off. Tara today weighs 130. She is proud of beating Rulon twice and is happy for all of her accomplishments. She wants to maintain her weight for life. Mark C now weighs 145. He is now a model for Mr. Clean products and is starring as Lex Luther in the Superman film with Scott! He wants to win the at-home prize.

Week 34

Mark T and Mark P are VERY sad that Mark C went home. Since Mark C is gone, Mark T has decided to once again go by his original name “Trumbo.” At the workout, Ruben is working with Dolvett, and really struggling. He is sad that his best friends Tanya and Rulon are now gone. Now he has no friends, except Rob (The 2 Rs). However, Rob likes to scream in Ruben’s ear. Ruben cries. Daniel cries. Jeremy eats a lighthouse. Now, the contestants will compete in a chaleange. It will be an obstacle course. First, they must walk through mud. Then they have to rock climb up 50 feet. From 50 feet up, they must dive into a pool and swim for ⅕ of a mile. Then they have to ice skate across a lake in a straight line or they fall into the pool and have to restart. Finally, they have to jump through a ring of fire and run a mile to the finish line. The winner gets a photoshoot from professional photographer, Albee FaceBreath. All the contestants are able to get through the mud pit, except for Ron, Elizabeth, and Mark P. Mark P HATES mud. Also Buddy since he is not medically cleared to compete. Daniel and Arthur both fall off during the rock climbing. It is ultimately down to Scott, Paul, Trumbo. Paul beats Scott! He gets his photoshoot. At the weigh-in, 10 people will be above the yellow line and 9 people will be below the yellow line. Above the yellow line is Scott, the biggest loser of the week with 11 pounds, Rob, Arthur, Mikey, Shay, Jeremy, David, Daniel, Danni, and Blake. Below the yellow line is Trumbo, Paul, Syndergaard, Ruben, Mark P, Buddy, Ron, Elizabeth, and Jackson. Scott can save one person, and he decides to save Buddy because he cannot compete in the challenge and is not a threat. The elimination challenge is just a walk on the treadmill at a 3.5 speed and 7.0 incline. The first to fall off is automatically eliminated. After 6:05:37, Ruben falls off, of course as he picks his nose. He thanks the Biggest Loser for the opportunity and for being brought back. The contestants receive the news that only 2 will fall below the yellow line next week, with 1 falling below the red line.

Week 35

The contestants are given SHOCKING news. They will vote to bring back one contestant. They can either bring someone that will motivate them, or bring someone that is not a threat. The 9 people above the yellow line get to decide. Blake wants to vote back Canda. But she cant because she quit. The contestants are given a packet with all the contestants. They decide they will pick someone that didn’t make it on campus at the beginning. That narrows it down to Bobby, Cherita, and Zina. Nobody wants to vote for Cherita when they hear that she QUIT off the bike. Nobody wants to vote for Zina because she fell asleep during the obstacle course. They decide that Bobby will be the person to be brought back! He also doesn’t have that much weight to lose so he was a good choice because he has a 0% chance of winning. Bobby immediately shows up. He has immunity this week. Now, they have to face their challenge. THE COOKING CHALLENGE!!!!!! Jeremy FAVORITE!!! He cooks for everyone on the ranch.And the best part is, NOBODY EATS IT!!!!! Therefore, they lose weight FASTER!!!! For this chaleange, 3 contestants will be brought back as judges. As you may know, 4 people from seasons 6-17 did not reappear on the show. They were Jessica (12), Jennifer (12), Maria (9), and Chris (13). One person was voted back to be a judge for this. That person was Antone! Jessica gained all her weight back, but she lost it at home before the season started. Jennifer gained a good amount of the weight back. But not enough to be a contestant. Maria did not come back because she weighed 646. However, she is down to 589, losing 57 pounds total. Now the twist is everyone will compete in partners. Chris, the cooking biggest loser legend, will return to compete in the challenge! There is a random drawing for who would be partners with Chris. It is of course, Jeremy. The rest of the partners are also randomly drawn. The prize is free groceries sent to the winner’s door for 6 months. The partners are:

Jeremy and Chris Rob and Ron Bobby and Trumbo Arthur and Jackson Mikey and Blake Danni and Daniel Scott and Elizabeth Paul and Buddy Syndergaard and Mark P Shay and David

They have 30 minutes to shop. The twist is, one person has to shop blindfolded! The contestant with the highest percentage is blindfolded, who guides the other person. Jeremy and Chris collect bananas, 13s, bread, cream cheese, chicken, and cheese. The rest do a good job. EXcept Bobby. He falls into someone else’s shopping cart and knocks everything over. Because of this, Bobby and Trumbo are disqualified. Trumbo punches Bobby. Bobby cries. Daniel cries. When Jeremy and Chris show the 3 judges, their banana bread with uncooked chicken and cheese Antone yells at Chris. He says she should know better and that she is going to gain all of her weight back if not more. Chris cries. She goes into the elimination room and eats everybody’s food. Jeremy laughs the whole time. Then Jeremy falls down the stairs. Jeremy cries. Daniel cries. He is fine. Just embarrassed. Rob and Ron win! At the weigh-in, Bobby gained 1 but he had immunity. Elizabeth gained 5 and fell below the red line. Ron and Buddy, who broke his 0 streak by gaining 3, fell below the yellow line. As bad as they both are, Ron is more of a threat than Buddy. Hard to believe, but true. He is voted off by everybody except for Mikey and Jeremy and Rob. Today, Elizabeth weighs 200 pounds. She has lost 44 pounds! She has gained 25 pounds back, but guess what! It’s MOSTLY MUSCLE!!! Ron now weighs 205. He is the lightest he has been since kindergarten. He wants to be under 200 by the finale.

Week 36

This week is All vs.1 week. The contestants are asked, if they could send one person home right now, who would it be? Obviously, Jeremy’s group has a huge say in this. The baseball group is much smaller now and doesn’t have that much control. The 3 girls only have a little of a say. Jackson, Mark P, Bobby, and Buddy don’t really have anybody. Paul, Syndergaard, and Trumbo vote for Arthur. Shay votes for Paul, while Blake and Danni vote for David. Jackson votes for Blake, Mark P votes for Buddy, and Buddy votes for himself. Scott votes for Trumbo. Bobby also votes for Buddy. Arthur, Daniel, David, Jeremy, Mikey, and Rob all vote for Paul. Therefore, Paul is the one chosen. If Paul has a lower percentage than the average of everyone else, he is automatically eliminated. If he has a higher percentage, he can choose anyone to go home, except the Biggest Loser of the week. Tensions are rising up at the Biggest Loser Ranch. At this point, it is pretty much the baseball players vs Arthur’s group vs the girls. Arthur’s group sees the baseball group as a bigger threat so they want to see them go home. Now, it is the challenge. It is 17 vs 1. It is a Karate Challenge! They have to break as many boards as possible in 10 minutes. Only one person from the 17 can match up against Paul. They choose Scott. The winner gets videos from home. In 10 minutes, Scott breaks 63 boards. Paul breaks 95 boards. Paul wins! He got a video from all of his Dback teammates. He is happy and wants to return to his team. After the challenge, Paul is obviously stressed out. He feels like there is a huge target on his back. He says to his trainer Kole Calhoun that if he wins he is definitely sending Arthur or Jeremy home since Arthur is the strongest weight-loss wise and Jeremy controls and leads the entire group. Paul is clearly overworking and not sleeping. At the weigh-in, the 17 people did well, led by Daniel who lost another 12 pounds, making him BL 2 weeks in a row. Also, Buddy lost 9 pounds, the first time he lost weight, since week 14! However, when Paul got on the scale, he GAINED 2 pounds! Paul is shocked that he lost. He is automatically eliminated. The baseball group is down to Trumbo and Syndergaard. Today Paul weighs 195, and lost a total of 389 lbs! A WHOLE Season 13 Jeremy!!! He is currently getting back into things with baseball and is hoping to have his best season yet.

Week 37

The theme for this week is “Trust Yourself.” In the workout, everyone has to run at a 15 for 30 seconds. They have to trust themselves that they won’t fall off. Somehow, everyone is able to do it! Except for Bobby. Bobby only runs at a 6 because he isn’t ready yet since he just got here. Also Buddy can’t run. Now, the challenge. They are holding onto a weight that consists of half of the weight they lost. If they let go, they fall into a pool. The winner gets immunity at the weigh-in. It is down to Scott, Daniel, and Syndergaard. Syndergaard wins! At the weigh-in, there is a red and yellow line. Arthur lost 11 to be the BL of the Week. Bobby lost nothing, so he is below the red line. Below the yellow is Blake and Jackson. They vote off Blake because she looks like Canda. And NOBODY likes a quitter like Canda. Today, Bobby weighs 210 pounds, losing 49 total pounds. In 10 months. He wants to weigh 175 at the end. Blake currently weighs 130 and looks like Canda. She has a brother that looks like Jeremy! His name is Roger. She wants to win the at-home prize.

Week 38

This week is Test Your Knowledge Week. The contestants will compete in a number of quizzes to see what they have learned. The person with the best score gets $50,000 and a video of Mark C and Chism singing the Alphabet. The first quiz is a nutrition quiz. They have to guess the calories in each dish. Some are healthy, some are unhealthy. The first plate is 3 Beef Tacos. It is 600 calories. Jeremy wins that one. He guessed 596! The next is a Chicken Salad. It is 130 calories. Danni wins that one. She guessed 137, her weight in season 14 at the end. Next is salmon and vegetables. It is 213 calories. Mikey wins. His dream is to own 213 golfcarts. Next is Pizza. It is 656 calories. Syndergaard wins that one. The last is an ice cream sundae. It is 750 calories. David wins that one since he ate that sundae week 22. Next, they have to show a trainer how to use a spinbike. Everyone does pretty well, except Jeremy. He wants Bob to take off the seat! Bob yells at Jeremy. The last quiz is on the core. They have to demonstrate how to do a push up, a pull up, and a sit up. They all do pretty well. Well, except Jeremy of course. Jeremy can’t do a pull up. Ultimately, the winner was Mark P! Trumbo is happy his best friend won. Before the weigh-in, the contestants receive huge news. There is another line! The last line! It is worth $200,000. Only one person can cross it. Immediately, Buddy crosses the line! He knows he has no shot at winning and this is a huge prize for him. He is eliminated. At the weigh-in, one contestant will fall below the red line. The numbers this week were extremely weak except for Rob, who lost 9 pounds and Shay who lost 7. For most of the weigh-in, David was in danger of falling below since he gained 2, but Syndergaard gained 4, and is automatically eliminated. Trumbo is the last baseball person standing. Today, Syndergaard weighs 210, losing 424 pounds. He is pitching well for the Mets and hopes to re-emerge as the ace he once was. He also got a haircut.

Week 39

This is the last week on campus. What was once 265 is now down to 12. Everyone didn’t do that great last week, so everyone is going to go all out this week to pull incredible numbers, since it is do or die. This week the contestants learn that they will compete in a triathlon. The winner of the triathlon automatically makes it into the Top 10. Also, there is a double red line this week, so the 2 people with the lowest percentage are automatically eliminated. The contestants walk out to the challenge. They are about to do the triathlon. They have to swim a half mile, bike 23 miles, then run a 5k. However, that is not it. It is a Put the Weight Back on Triathlon! For every 1/10 of a mile of swimming, they have to put on the weight from their first 10 weeks. Then, they have to put back on the weight from weeks 11-33 for each mile they bike. Lastly, they have to put on the weight from weeks 35-38 for each kilometer they run. For contestants that came back, they will put on the average weight loss of what they lost at home per when they were gone. During the had mile swim, they put on the first 5 within each point 10. It is very hard. The bigger people like Arthur and David almost drown even though the depth of the pool is only 5 feet. Next, the bike ride. There is a basket in their bike and they put even more weight in that, and each week they add on at the mile marks. They have a tough time and a lot of the bigger people a tough time. Scott and Danni are in first and 2nd but Danni passes Scott in the 5K. Scott started out just a bit too fat to win this one. Danni is really happy and she wants to win the show again. At the last chance workout, everyone is working extremely hard. Nobody wants to have made it this far and get eliminated so close to the finish. You can tell that Arthur, Daniel, Jeremy, and David aren’t drinking that much or eating that much because they want it so bad. Most of the people are almost normal or normal now, but they look TERRIBLE! They are dehydrated and have excess skin everywhere. At the weigh-in, Danni loses an incredible 10 pounds despite winning immunity. Jackson starts off with a respectable 6, followed by Rob’s incredible 17. Scott pulls a 15, putting him in the top 10. Daniel pulls a 19, putting him in the Top 10. Trumbo only pulls a 15, which is still really good although he isn’t safe yet. Mark P loses 20, David loses 30, and Mikey loses 16, continuing the impressive numbers. Jeremy then pulls 13, which he is very happy about, since it is the same number he pulled the first week but 300 pounds heavier. Arthur has to lose more than 12 to be safe, and he pulls a 29! This gives him a percentage of 14.57% for the week, a new record! This pushes Jackson below the red line, which he is okay with as he is proud of how far he made it. Shay needs to lose more than 10 to be safe, but she only pulls a 5, pushing her below the red line with Jackson. Today, Jackson weighs 130, losing a total of 248 lbs. he is at home working to win the at home prize. He is teaching his mother healthier eating habits and is no longer throwing up. Shay weighs 155, and is going on jogs daily. She wants to win the at home prize and is training really hard for the ironman.

Semi-Finals

The contestants are told that 6/10 of the remaining contestants are going to be finalists, in pairs of 2 unless they win the ironman. They will choose their partner in order of percentage of weight loss. This week there is a triple red line, and a yellow line, since the man and woman that win the ironman will secure spots as finalists. However, it won’t be determined by their work on the ranch. They are all going home for 30 days, and they will return for a final weigh-in. They are all going to weigh-in in front of their friends and family again. They are excited to show them how much weight they have lost. They all go home and are surrounded by LOTS of people. Each of the 10 contestants tell everyone how much weight theyve lost and everyone is proud. They all have an ironman to train for. Danni is running every day because she wants to win and be a finalist more than anything. So is scott. He has the help of his family as well. He goes in bike rides daily with them, and swims laps and jogs in the morning in the morning every day. Meanwhile, Mark P has been struggling a lot. He is going out with his friends and is tempted to eat. He eats lots of pizza, and cake. Jeremy is also tempted when he goes out with his friends. He has some beer and feels guilty so he doesnt have anymore. Daniel and David have a party a week in. Daniel says he has lost 385 pounds. He gets an applause. They ask David how much he lost. Once again, he says “I lost 3 pounds.” He gets a BIGGER applause. David thought they asked how much he has lost so far at home. David and Daniel begin to talk. David thanks Daniel for convincing him to finally change his life. However, David doesn’t want to lose that much weight anymore. He wants Daniel to win, as he believes he deserves it and has worked harder than anyone. David doesn’t think he can compete with him and Arthur since he wants to work on gaining muscle, so he is planning on throwing the weigh-in. He thinks he has a legitimate shot to win the at-home instead, and as much as would like to win with Daniel, he knows that Arthur would pick him anyway as his finale partner. Daniel tells David he shouldn’t throw it and do the best he can, but David wants to improve Daniel’s percent chance of winning and not falling below the red line. And now finally, everyone is back in southern California to compete in the iron man. The first man and the first woman will each be finalists. Everyone is together, besides those who withdrew. Bonnie and Buddy are both not medically cleared to compete, so they are just going to watch, and cheer people on. David J is STILL on crutches, so he can’t compete either. Also, since Joelle showed up, Carla didn’t show up. They don’t like each other. The swim is 1.5 miles, the bike ride is 112 miles, and the run is 26.2 miles. It is currently 6am, everyone us up and ready to go. They start. The swimming takes off with Rachel in first, Tara in 2nd, Austin in 3rd, Scott in 4th, and Danni in 5th. Austin has been training non-stop. Adrian is doing quite well, considering he has been workong out 14 hours a day. Everyone is SHOCKED over how well Austin is doing. Bobby gets a cramp about a half mile into it, and has to be dropped out. Ron is also struggling so he is pulled put too. Ben volunteers not to win, and he is out. Now, the biking. Rachel is leading, but Austin, Scott, and Tara are all in a pack right behing them. Paul is a close 5th, with Syndergaard 6th. Trumbo is behind them. However, Scott catches up to Rachel and they are together pretty much the whole bike ride. Austin and Tara are only about a mile behind, with Danni and Sam about another mile behind. Ben is the first to drop out off the bike. He trained really hard for the swimming and running but he just could NOT ride a bike. Ruben drops out from biking because his nose needed some pickin. Towards the middle of the pack are Dane, Blaine, Sione, and Filipe, with Patrick near them. Going at a slow but steady pace is Arthur, Daniel, Rob, David L, Jeremy, and Mikey. Johnny is the oldest contestant ever and he wants to prove that old people can do an ironman. Debbie is with him too. Jordan and Schwarber are pushing each other, Justin and Rulon are pushing each other, and Jeff and Jackson are pushing each other. They all really want to finish. Daris is struggled with the swimming, but he is okay with the biking and he is the best runner so he thinks he can finish towards the top. By the end of the bike ride, Scott is leading, but with Tara a close second and Austin not too far behind either. Rachel fell behind because she isn’t the best biker, and Paul passes his former ranch 5 partner. Syndergaard starts running and his hair moves back and forth, so he has to put it up in a braid. Ramon is closley behind Syndergaard. When Dane starts his marathon, guess who he sees? THE MIKE TROUT!!! Trout, who joined week 11 but quit, has lost 90 pounds on his own and wants to finish the marathon with Dane. They run together. Dane is in MUCH better shape than thr 5K. Estella and Jerry both drop out within the first 2 miles of the marathon. Both John C and James drop at mile 3. Mo drops out at mile 10 due to his leg cramping up. At mile 20, Vinny feels his knee hurting. The doctor comes and and pulls him off even though Vinny really wanted to finish. It is 22 miles and Austin, Tara, and Scott are all in a pack. Austin is feels really good and has his family cheering him on. He pulls ahead. He crosses the finish line at the 26.2 mile mark. He is a finalist! And then...well...he quits. Nobody knows why he quit, he just said “I quit” then left the ranch. He doesn’t get money either, as he was gonna win $100,000. Scott finishes second, and since Austin quit, Scott is crowned the winner! He is a finalist! He also wins $75,000. Tara finishes third and since she is the first girl to finish, she is a finalist as well! She wins $50,000. 4th is Paul, who wins $40,000. 5th is Rachel who wins $30,000. 6th is Syndergaard who wins $25,000. 7th is Danni who wins $20,000. 8th is Trumbo who wins $15,000. 9th is Sam who wins $10,000. 10th is Daris who wins $5,000. He actually had the best marathon time, which was 3:39:45. Right after Daris is Ramon, followed by Daniel, who jumped ahead of his group. Dane, Blaine, Sione, and Filipe are next. Ken, who is shocked when he heard Austin quit, drops out himself. David is getting tired at mile 22, and he decides to drop out. At mile 24, Jackson is feeling sick, and Jeff is hearing voices telling him “failure failre failure.” However, they push through it and they finish together! Matt Hoover wanted to finish in less than a day, but he wound up with a time of 24:02:07. Last is Johnny and Debbie who finish together in 27:34:26. Everyone is happy. They collapse at the finish line, but they are okay!!! Now, all of the remaining contestants, plus Tara head back to the ranch for last chance workout. Kole Calhoun is soooo proud of Trumbo. They’ve been through a lot together. And now, it is time for their final weigh in. Since Scott won, only 2 people will be below the red line. First, Scott lost 10 pounds despite having immunity. First was Daniel who lost 18 pounds, which is very good. Rob is next and only loses 5 pounds. Danni is next and pulls a 10, which puts her below Daniel and above Rob. Mikey is next and pulls a 14, putting him above Danni and Rob. Arthur is next. He needs to lose more than 19 to clinch a spot and he loses 21! Daniel is a finalist joining Arthur and Scott. Next up is David. He needs to lose more than 18 to be above the yellow but he only loses 3. Rob and David are still on the verge of being below the red line with Danni and Mikey below the yellow line. Next is Trumbo who needs more than 17, but he loses 15. Next is Mark P. He gains 2 pounds! He is below the red line and automatically eliminated. The trainers give him some advice so he can continue his healthy lifestyle at home and not fall back into bad habits. Jeremy is last. He needs more than 2 to be above the red line and beat David, and more than 11 to be above the yellow line and beat Trumbo. Everyone is shocked when he falls short losing 10 pounds. Mark P and David are below the red line and automatically eliminated. Rob and Jeremy are below the yellow line. They are told that the remaining contestants will not be voting. America will. Now the contestants will pick their partners. Arthur is first and chooses Daniel, who has been with him since day 1. Danni is next and picks Tara, who wants a strong, fierce, female competetor. Next is Scott who chooses either Rob or Jeremy. This leaves Mikey with Trumbo. Today, Mark P weighs 160 and is working out every day to win the at home. He finds himself lifting weights constantly, and wants to build muscle. He is also cooking a lot more. David weighs 230, and is proud of all of his accomplisments he made on campus. He is now a VEGAN, and is eating VEGAN hotdogs. He wants to win the at home prize and build muscle. Not just a little muscle, but a LOT of muscle. The episode ends with Rob and Jeremy pleading their case to America.

Finale

It has been exactly 1 year since the first week. Contestants have lost hundreds of pounds in the span of just weeks. Now they will all weigh-in once again to see how far they have come. They chose their partner in reverse order of elimination. First, it is time to see who won America’s vote and will weigh-in with Scott for the chance of becoming the Biggest Loser. But before they bring out the contestants, it is time to bring out Americas final vote. First comes Rob. He gets a huge applause. Then Jeremy comes out. He gets an even BIGGER applause and they play his music. Instead of wearing a hawaiian shirt, he wears a hawaiian SUIT. Jeremy is expected to win because he has always been a fan favorite since his journey at 596 lbs, but surprisingly, it is Rob who wins with less than 100,000 votes! It is probably because Jeremy has already won. Jeremy is still a front runner for the at-home prize. He will be weighing in with Chism, since Chism chose the winner of the final vote. Now, they do the pound for pound adverstisement, feauturing Daris, Q, Josh and Billy Hamilton (best friends), Grant Green, and C.J. Wilson. Now it is time for the first 4 groups. First is Ben and Ken, Ed and Seth, Lauren C and Lauren L, and Chandra and Sophia. It is time for the first performance. It is called “Ben Ken Ed.” Ben, Ken, and Ed keep saying their names for 2 minutes and they get a nice applause. Ben and Ken are the first to weigh-in. Ben goes from 596 to 396, losing 200 while Ken goes from 388 to 221, losing 167 for a total team % of -37.30%. Next is Ed and Seth. Ed goes from 394 to 230, for a loss of 164 and Seth goes from 291 to 168 losing 123 for a total percentage of -42.27%, taking the lead from Ben and Ken. Next is the Laurens.

Chandra goes from 411 to 340, a loss of 71 pounds and Sophia goes from 267 to 245 losing 22 total pounds for a percentage of -13.72%. The next 4 teams are Helen and Heba, Debbie and Zina, Johnny and Tommy, and Dana and Lizzeth. The first 4 mentioned are still extremely fat. Helen and Heba are first. Helen goes from 527 to 377 for a 150 pound loss and Heba goes from 394 to 298, for a team percentage of -26.71%. Next is Debbie and Zina. Debbie’s current weight is 306. She lost THIRTY-THREE POUNDS!

Week 2
First aired January 13, 2009

The episode begins with a temptation in which the contestants are asked to stand behind a white line. Alison explains that the first contestants to cross the line will receive $5000, but that contestant will also be eliminated from the competition. No one crosses the line and the prize is increased to $10,000 and again to $25,000. None of the contestants accept the offer. Joelle is the only one who admits she was tempted.

Throughout the episode, video clips are shown of the at-home contestants and their progress. Some are well-motivated and working hard, while others are having difficulties, beginning to succumb to old habits.

For this week's challenge, the contestants are taken to the ocean for a "kayak and foot" race. The objective is to kayak for a quarter mile and then climb to the top of a "mountain" near the beach. The winner of the race wins immunity at the weigh-in and the top four finishers win a phone call home. The contestant finishing in last place will receive a one-pound-penalty at the weigh-in. Tara wins immunity, with Blaine coming in second, Mandi in third, and Helen in fourth. All four are rewarded with phone calls. Mike, Damien, Kristin, Joelle, Filipe, and Jerry are the next six to finish, with Dan finishing last. Tara gives her phone call to Filipe because she says it would mean more to someone with a wife and kids at home.

A large portion of this week's episode is focused on the problems of Joelle, who appears to lack motivation and is not putting forth sufficient effort. At the "last chance work-out," Bob becomes frustrated with her as she keeps stopping during 30-second sprints, and he takes the loud tone with her at some length. Jillian states that she has never seen Bob get this mad. Later, Bob says he was "channeling Jillian Michaels."

At the weigh-in, Tara loses one pound, but since she won the challenge, she was safe from elimination. The Black team (Blaine & Dane) has the largest percentage of weight loss, while Jerry and Dan both fall below the yellow line. The one-pound penalty Dan earned at the challenge is critical because without the penalty it would have been Joelle up for elimination instead. The other members of Bob's team had stated that had Joelle fallen below the yellow line, they would have voted her out.

The contestants are given an hour to deliberate together. They find it difficult to choose between Jerry and Dan, saying they feel both really need to be at the Ranch. Ultimately they agree that Dan needs it more, as he is a young man who has had a serious problem all his life and has never been thin, while Jerry has the support of his wife at home, and was once at a healthy weight. They feel Jerry has a better chance in the long run of losing weight and keeping it off than Dan will if he went home this early in the game. After deliberation, the contestants unanimously vote to send Jerry home, which eliminates both Jerry and Estella.

At home, Jerry has seen dramatic improvements in his health and energy levels; he no longer suffers from the symptoms of diabetes. He has lost 84 pounds and hopes to lose at least 160 by the finale. Estella is under 200 pounds.

Week 3
First aired January 20, 2009

Everyone is still emotional after eliminating Jerry and the White Team. The contestants still believe that Joelle does not deserve to be there, with animosity against her growing.

In the temptation challenge, each contestant is put in a room with piles of tempting foods for five minutes. Their at-home partners each face a similar temptation. The team that consumes the most calories wins a visit home for the partner on the ranch, with the team's trainer making the trip as well. Mandi eats one slice of pizza (380 calories). Sione (blue, at-home) eats two slices of pizza and one taco (960 calories total) because he wants to see his trainer again. Carla (silver, at-home) eats 3 slices of pizza, 5 chicken nuggets, 1 taco, and 2 cup cakes, for a total of 2710 calories, winning the challenge. None of the other players are shown consuming any food. Filipe says that Joelle does not deserve this, and that Mandi should have won because she wanted to see her sons. The Orange team does not participate in the temptation. While the reason is not mentioned in the episode, it was indicated later that Dan was off campus for additional medical testing at the time.

Joelle appears to be excited at the prospect of going home and getting away from the ranch. Joelle and Bob visit Carla in Southfield, Michigan (a suburb of Detroit), who states that her weight is now down to 335 lbs. When Carla learns that Joelle has been consistently near the yellow line, she screams and rants at her at length, while a shocked Bob looks on.

Several team members visit Dr. Huizenga. Blaine was once taking eight different medications per day, for diabetes, cholesterol, and depression, but now no longer needs any of them. Ron was once taking ten pills per day plus insulin, but he is now down to only one with a reduced level of insulin. Dr. Huizenga informs them that this reduction in medication will save Blaine a projected $733,000 over his lifetime, and Ron over $20,000 per year.

Joelle and Bob return to the ranch and the contestants face a challenge from seasons past: each person must jump over a Styrofoam bar, part of a giant metal jump rope. If they break the Styrofoam, they are out. Joelle, Ron, Daniel, and Helen are out on the first few swings, either mistiming the jump or not being able to jump at all. Damien (57 swings), Filipe (105), Mandi (141), and Dane (701) fare much better. In the end, it comes down to Kristin and Tara, who make it to 1030 jumps (two hours 19 minutes) in 95 degree heat. Ultimately, Kristin succumbs to the heat, giving Tara immunity for the second week in a row.

At the weigh-in, the Black team has the highest percentage of weight loss, while Joelle and Damien (both of whom are being trained by Bob), fall below the yellow line. Bob's team gives Joelle and Damien the opportunity to plead their case, and Tara asks Joelle if she wants to be on the Ranch. Joelle equivocates in her answer. Bob's team makes the unanimous decision to send Joelle home. Jillian's team indicates that they will "respect Bob's team's decision." However, at the vote, Jillian's team votes unanimously for Damien, causing a tie. The rules state that in case of a tie the person with the least weight lost goes home, and that means Damien is out.

At home, Nicole has lost 76 pounds and plans to wear a size 8 dress at the couple's June wedding. Damien has lost 74 pounds and hopes to lose 126 before the finale.

Week 4
First aired January 27, 2009

Tensions between Bob's and Jillian's teams are high as Bob's team reacts with anger to Jillian's team blindsiding them at the previous vote. Jillian's team said they would vote out Joelle, but voted for Damien instead. Jillian's team members explain privately that Joelle will cause the most disruption and weaken Bob's team, while Bob's team is aghast that now Joelle thinks that all of her teammates want her gone.

This week is Super Bowl week and the challenges are related to football. The teams face a reward challenge to guess how many calories are in some football-related snacks. Daniel, Kristin, and Helen are the winners of the first round, and chef Curtis Stone shows them how to make a low-calorie substitute for Buffalo wings. In the second round, the winners of the first round must guess the number of calories in the low-calorie substitute. Daniel of the Orange team wins, and as a reward, receives a two-pound pass for his at-home teammate, David, and David receives an at-home visit for a day from the chef, who shows him how to cook healthy meals.

In the gym, Jillian focuses her attention on Daniel, who achieves beyond what he thought he could do. He confesses he has never been thin and doesn't think it is possible for him ever to be thin. Bob has renewed hope for Joelle, who seems to have had her "fire lit" after the previous week's vote, and begins to work out harder.

For the immunity challenge, the contestants must run back and forth on a football field to retrieve footballs to place in another contestant's bin. When a contestant's bin has five footballs in it, that contestant is eliminated from the challenge. As a strategy, the contestants start by targeting the "strong players" on the opposite training-team, before targeting fellow training-team members. Filipe is eliminated first, followed by Tara, Dane, Kristin, Mandi, Daniel, Mike, and Joelle. The winner is Helen of the Pink team, who is elated that at her age she was able to win such a physical challenge. NFL quarterback Kurt Warner co-hosts the challenge to help inspire the teams.

At the weigh-in, the at-home players are brought back to the ranch, reuniting with their partners. The contestants are told that the at-home players will weigh-in the next day, but only if their team is not eliminated in the vote following that day's weigh-in. Tara wins the weigh-in after losing twelve pounds. Helen, who has immunity, has the second lowest percentage of weight-loss. The Brown team (Ron and Mike) and the Orange team (Daniel) both fall below the yellow line. Both Ron and Mike blame themselves for not losing more weight, while Ron pleads for the other contestants to save his son. Daniel (Orange team) pleads for the right to stay on the ranch, while his partner, David, says his heart really isn't in it and he is not sure he wants to be there. The vote is nearly evenly split, with Jillian's trainees voting to send the Brown team home (trained by Bob), and Bob's trainees voting to send the Orange team home (trained by Jillian). The Orange Team is eliminated, by a vote of four to three.

At home, Daniel can now run for over 19 minutes and no longer needs to take medication for diabetes, while David has reportedly quit smoking. David has lost 48 pounds and hopes to "shock America" at the finale. Daniel has lost 101 pounds and hopes to break a Biggest Loser record for the largest total weight loss.

Week 5
First aired February 3, 2009

The episode begins with the at-home players weighing in. The winner of the weigh-in wins immunity for his/her team at the weigh-in at the end of the week. Sione is the winner, having lost 25 pounds (7.16%) over the past 30 days. Shanon lost 15 pounds, Cathy lost 8, Laura lost 7, and Carla lost 20. In last place is Aubrey, who lost 2 pounds.

At the challenge, each team is tied to the end of a long rope that is wrapped around a pipe. The contestants must work together to unwrap enough rope in order to make it 300 ft to the finish line. Each team must keep their rope untangled as it is being unwound, as well as estimate its length while climbing over and under the pipe repeatedly. Aubrey and Mandi (Yellow team) win the challenge, just beating Sione and Filipe, and are given the choice between a $5,000 prize or a two-pound advantage at the weigh-in.

The reunited teams work out together. Filipe is shocked that Sione is able to work out even faster than him, despite having been off the ranch. Carla is frustrated that Joelle is slacking off in the gym, a fact that annoys a number of other contestants as well. Shanon complains and cries a lot, but displays strong exercise skills. Laura cries a lot as well, and Jillian yells at her.

At the weigh-in, the Yellow team reveals they have elected to take the two-pound advantage. The Green team (Tara and Laura) has the highest percentage of weight loss for the second week in a row, losing 4.84% and 25 pounds, while the Brown and Silver teams fall below the yellow line. Carla becomes angry because she lost nine pounds while her partner, Joelle, lost nothing. In addition, Joelle went home to Southfield in order to vote in the presidential election during the past week of training, which angered Carla and others. Several of the other contestants are upset to see Carla below the yellow line, because they feel it is due to Joelle's poor performance.

During the deliberations, Aubrey asks Joelle if she honestly wants to be at the ranch. Joelle equivocates and never directly replies to the question. Carla's anger at Joelle escalates into an argument. The Brown team says that they need to be there for Mike's sake. As the votes are revealed, the first four votes are all for the Silver team, which is enough to send them home, and it is not necessary to reveal the votes from the remaining two teams. As each team casts its vote, they make clear that they want Joelle off the ranch, but that they will miss Carla, who they feel worked out very hard.

In the at-home update, it is revealed that Carla and Joelle have not spoken to each other for several months. When they finally meet they get into another argument; Joelle tells Carla she is done and walks out. The final video shows them separately. Joelle has lost 57 pounds and is planning to wear a size 10 dress at the finale. Carla has lost 87 pounds and hopes to break the record for weight lost by a female contestant.

Week 6
First aired February 10, 2009

The contestants on the ranch are subject to the first ever "Pop Challenge." They are all, without warning, summoned to the pool, where they must each stand on a block, on one foot. The person who stands the longest wins a 24-hour visit from a "loved one." Mandi of the yellow team wins after she convinces Blaine, Filipe, and Aubrey to quit because of her great need to see her husband. It is revealed that her husband was not supportive of her trip to the ranch, seeing it as time taken away from her duties to her family. Jillian sees it as an unspoken pact between the spouses—she will gain weight and he will still love her and in exchange she'll never leave him. Losing weight, therefore, is a breaking of the pact and an implicit threat to the marriage. Jillian cautions Mandi to maintain her strength and keep her eyes on the goal. Her husband arrives and, as an extra treat, her two young sons come to the ranch, too. She shows them all what she has been doing, and gives them a taste of her workouts and her food. As Jillian feared, she does sacrifice some workout time to spend with her family. However, her husband grudgingly says he will be supportive of her goal. Aubrey cries because it's hard to see her sister with her family, while she is apart from her own husband and five children.

Meanwhile, Bob is disappointed and concerned for Mike due to his lack of significant weight loss. He puts him on a higher calorie diet as he believes Mike's low consumption is causing his metabolism to slow down. The immunity challenge involves each team holding a bar above their heads, together, for as long as they can. A red light indicates that the team is out. Some of the strongest teams (Black, Blue) end up failing early on, and the challenge comes down to four women's teams—Pink, Green, Yellow, and Purple. Eventually, it is just Purple and Green, who last for over four and a half hours together. Purple is determined to win, as Kristin lost to Tara on a previous challenge. Laura eventually fails, and Purple wins immunity.

At the weigh-in, Laura, who was criticized by Jillian as not doing the work, loses only 3 pounds. Mike, after his increase in food consumption, also increases his loss to 13 pounds. Mandi manages to lose 6 pounds despite her family's presence, but Aubrey loses only 1 pound. Black falls below the yellow line for the first time, as their weekly double-digit results falter. This week, only one team falls below the line, with contestants having to choose one of that team to go home. As Bob says goodbye to his team, he whispers to each of them "Dane and no one else." Blaine asks the other contestants to vote to send him home, as he wants to be with his new baby. He also is getting closer to goal weight, and therefore will likely derive less benefit from remaining on the ranch. Bob's team is tempted to vote Dane off, as he is the bigger threat—he has more weight to lose, he is a key support person for the rest of Jillian's team, and it's what Bob wants. There is also bitterness on Bob's team because several weeks earlier, Jillian's team voted off Damien instead of Joelle, despite Bob's team's request to vote off Joelle. In the end, while the Pink team votes for Dane, all of the other couples on Bob's team vote for Blaine (Blue, Brown and Purple), and Blaine goes home. At home, he is doing well, and is training for an Ironman Triathlon. He has lost 86 pounds so far.

Week 7
First aired February 17, 2009

The contestants are faced with a second Pop Challenge. Alison meets them in front of the gym and tells them that only two teams will have access to the gym for the entire week. The contestants must run up a hill to a board with 130 keys on it, pick a key, and run back down and check if the key fits one of the two locks attached to the gym doors. Shanon finds the first key on her sixth attempt, while Mike finds the second on his ninth attempt. As a result, the Pink and Brown Teams will have the gym to themselves for the week, and the other teams must workout without using the gym.

Bob and Jillian are reunited with their teams. When Jillian sees that Dane is there, she is surprised. She thought the others would get rid of Dane because of how big of a threat he is. She and her team mention how they overheard Bob telling his team to get rid of Dane. Jillian says Bob hates it when his team disobeys him, and when Bob talks to his team and realizes that they didn't listen to him, he is indeed upset. But he quickly became happy again once he heard about the POP Challenge, and that Helen and Shanon & Mike and Ron had the keys to the gym. Jillian was ticked off because she "is not an outdoorsy girl".

Jillian uses the living room for her team to train, and Bob takes the Purple and Blue Teams outside to the "prison yard" to work out with lawn furniture. Sione comments that even though they don't have the gym equipment it's just another day of torture from Bob. Meanwhile, Helen and Shanon are turning Jillian's side of the gym into a lounge, and when Bob comes to check on them, he thinks it's hilarious, but he reminds them that this isn't the time to slack off. Tara is giving Jillian trouble, not wanting to work out due to "stress and missing Blaine." Jillian refuses to let her stop.

At the immunity challenge, each contestant must operate a rowing machine that is attached to a tower of lights. If the light is green, the contestant is rowing fast enough. If the light turns yellow, it is a warning to increase the speed. If a contestant's light turns red, all members of that contestant's team are eliminated from the challenge. After twenty minutes of rowing, only the Black and Green teams are still in the competition. Ultimately, Dane wins the challenge, after Laura's light turns red, and Dane is awarded immunity at this week's weigh-in.

At the weigh-in, Dane loses four pounds, but he has immunity, so he is safe from elimination. The Green team (Laura and Tara) has the highest percentage of weight loss (3.14%), while the Pink team is below the yellow line. After some deliberation, Helen tells the other contestants that the Pink team has decided that they would like to send Shanon home. Aubrey asks if Shanon wants to leave because it's what she wants, or because it's what her mom wants. Shanon says she knows she can do it at home, and thinks her mom needs this more than she does. At the elimination, the contestants honor the Pink team's request to send Shanon home.

At home, Shanon's weight is down to 198 pounds, and she has dropped 10 pant sizes. She is pursuing one of her lifelong dreams by training to compete in a roller derby. Her derby name is "Flower Power."

Week 8
First aired February 24, 2009 (first hour) and February 25, 2009 (second hour) due to the Presidential Address on February 24 at 9:00 pm

The contestants are brought to the third pop challenge; Alison explains that this challenge will change the course of the game. The two-person teams are being dissolved and the game is becoming Black vs. Blue.

For the pop challenge, one player from each team must complete 100 "up-downs" (a "classic" football drill) in the mud. To complete an up-down, the contestant must first lay down flat in the mud, then jump up and hit a disk above his/her head. The contestant to complete 100 up-downs wins the challenge (along with their teammate), and has the privilege of being the first to select their trainer. The team coming in last place is forced to switch trainers (or the team will automatically be split up). The remaining teams are placed on teams at random, as determined by flipping a coin, under the condition that no trainer can have more than six contestants. Tara wins the challenge, and she and Laura elect to keep Jillian as their trainer, joining the Black Team. Helen comes in last place and is forced to switch from Bob to Jillian.

At the end of the selection process, the new teams are as follows:


 * Blue: Ron (Brown), Cathy & Kristin (Purple), Aubrey & Mandi (Yellow), and Dane (Black).
 * Black: Tara & Laura (Green), Filipe & Sione (Blue), Mike (Brown), and Helen (Pink)

When the trainers find out about the new team set-ups, they are both surprised. Both Bob and Jillian are concerned about the effect this will have on the contestants. Bob is upset about losing Filipe, Sione, Helen, and Mike, and becomes emotional while talking to his former team.

The regular weekly challenge is a biking challenge. The new teams are taken into the gym where they find two bikes, one for each team. Alison explains that the objective of the challenge is to put on as many miles on the bike as possible in 24 hours. Teams can switch out players at any time and the team with the most miles ridden wins. At the end of the challenge, the scores stand at 301.9 to 264 mi, and the Black Team wins. Each member of the Black team is awarded a custom Trek bike for each member, and the team earns a 3-pound advantage at the upcoming weigh-in. Tara rode the farthest of all the contestants; nearly 59 mi.

At the weigh-in, the Black Team has the highest percentage of weight-loss (3.65% with the 3 pound advantage). Dane loses 13 pounds, for a total of 100 pounds in eight weeks, which is announced as a new record for the show. Cathy, who loses 14 pounds, is the biggest loser on the Blue team and is granted immunity. At the vote, Ron, Cathy and Kristin vote for Dane, while Dane and Mandi vote for Ron, and Aubrey votes for Kristin; eliminating Dane.

At home, it is reported that Dane trained for and ultimately ran a 42.195 km marathon with his wife, finishing in 3 hours and 53 minutes. This claim was later retracted, and an apology was issued by NBC.

Week 9
First aired March 3, 2009

Rocco DiSpirito visits the ranch and teaches the contestants something about cooking unhealthy foods (cheeseburgers, pizza, and burritos) in a healthier manner. The teams compete to cook those three foods, with the winner being the team that cooks the best-tasting food that is the lowest in calories, all in 30 minutes. The Black team wins, meaning that they get to have a dinner prepared by Rocco (with the losing team having to wash the dishes), and one member of the team gets to have an extra vote. At the dinner, Rocco makes panko breaded chicken and mashed sweet potatoes. When the Blue team arrives to wash the dishes, the two teams end up having a water fight.

Jillian takes Sione aside to talk to: she senses that he and Filipe are not happy about the switch in trainers, so Jillian gives him a pep talk, then takes him for some one-on-one training. During the training, Sione sprains his ankle. Meanwhile, the Blue team is taken to a boxing gym to train with surprise guest Sugar Ray Leonard. Aubrey is excited, since she boxed for three years.

Dr. H comes by to talk to the contestants, and singles out Tara and Mike as two people who have broken records at the ranch for weight loss and muscle growth. The teams are then assembled for a challenge: they have to pack kits at the LA Food Bank, with each kit designated for a family, and the team that packs 150 kits first, wins. The winners get letters from home and each member of the team gets one year of free groceries. The Black team has to sit out one member, and they choose Laura. The Black Team wins, and Aubrey is upset, because she has five children, and she confesses to the camera that when she had her first two kids, she was unmarried and had to go to a food bank in order to feed her children. The next day, Mike (from the Black team) offers Aubrey (from the Blue team) his year of free groceries, since she needs it more. She accepts and tells everyone else about it, and the contestants all share an emotional moment.

Jillian is angered to hear that Laura sat out of the competition, despite the fact that Sione was injured and Helen was older and not as strong. She singles out Laura as someone who is not working to her potential. Jillian asks each team member who is the weakest link, and all in turn (except Tara) say that it is Laura. Jillian says this is the meanest thing she has ever done, but she is desperate to get through to Laura, who she feels has put herself in the role of victim when she's actually a strong woman. Laura runs away crying, but later she and Jillian talk a bit.

At the weigh-in, the contestants are informed that there's a twist: if the 11 contestants lose an average of a pound a day each, then no one will go home. But if they collectively fall below that goal, then one person from each team will go home. They weigh in, but as Mike weighs in, they flash "to be continued...", leaving the last portion of the weigh-in to week 10.

Week 10
First aired March 10, 2009

Mike's weigh in from week 9 is revealed to be 11 pounds. Because the contestants have lost more than 77 pounds combined, they all are safe and no one is eliminated for week 9. However, because there is no elimination, Week 10 begins immediately. As a twist for the week, elimination will be based on contests between two individuals, one from each team. Whoever has the higher percentage weight loss will get one point for their team and the first team to reach three points will be safe from elimination. There is a pop-challenge: contestants have a wall-sit while balancing a medicine ball on their laps – the winner will decide the matchups. Tara wins the challenge and therefore is allowed to choose the match-ups for the upcoming elimination. Because the Black Team has one more member, one person from the team will not have a match-up. Tara's choices are: Mike vs. Cathy, Sione vs. Mandi, Filipe vs. Kristin, Helen vs. Ron, and Laura vs. Aubrey, with herself being exempt from any face-off.

Shortly thereafter, they have a reward challenge – a relay race with 24 medicine balls at a 24 Hour Fitness. The Black Team wins, and receive the prize of "24 hours of luxury" at a spa in Southern California. While there, the team eats over 15,000 calories total, and many of them drink and smoke as well. Meanwhile, the Blue Team works out and eats a healthy, low calorie dinner. The next morning, the Black team isn't feeling well, and is sluggish from the fatty foods and alcohol they had consumed. When they get back to the ranch, Helen says they should conceal from Jillian their gorging. But Jillian has already been informed of the events via crew members, and reams out the team for their irresponsibility. Filipe gets angry and has an emotional confrontation with Jillian, in which he complains that the real problem is that she won't work with him and he feels rejected. He storms out and Sione follows. They approach Bob and tell them about their confrontation, and ask him to train them; Bob agrees. At the weigh-in, many of the Black Team are shocked at their poor performance – Filipe loses only one pound, and Tara did not lose anything, with Laura gaining 1 pound. But the Black team wins the weigh-in 3–2. The three original Bob team members who are on the Blue Team – Cathy, Kristin, and Ron – have been voting as a bloc, and they decide to vote off Mandi, a former Jillian team member, because their only other option is her sister Aubrey, but they feel Aubrey needs the ranch more than Mandi, who gained two pounds at the weigh-in. Laura still has an extra vote that she won the previous week, so she and Mandi and Aubrey decide to vote for Cathy, which will cause a tie and force the Black Team to decide who to vote off. The Black Team has decided to vote off Aubrey, as she is a bigger threat than Mandi, and also, since the former Bob Team members of the Black Team are sticking together, they don't have the votes to vote off Cathy or Ron.

At the elimination, Mandi gets three votes as expected and Laura and Aubrey vote for Cathy, as promised. However, Mandi, in an emotional twist, decides she can't vote her sister off because her sister needs this more, despite her sister's assurance that she would be fine with being voted off, and so Mandi instead votes for Ron, ensuring that she herself would go home.

At home, Mandi is now ready to help with her husband Rusty and her two sons. She has lost a total of 84 pounds and plans to be a size 2 at the season finale.

Week 11
''First aired March 17, 2009

All of the contestants are sent home for a week and they are shown with their families. Aubrey is seen trying to juggle her workout schedule with the responsibilities of raising five children. Later, she is shown trying to convince her father, who weighs approximately 500 pounds, to take control of his health and lose 300 pounds. Ron and Mike are greeted at home by their family, with an emotional greeting between Mike and his 16-year-old brother, who is heavier than Mike was at the start of the season. It is difficult, he explains, to now be the heaviest person in the family. While at home, contestants are each given a tin of 13 sugar cookies, and also given a challenge: to run a half-marathon of 21.0975 km. The victor will receive $10,000. For each sugar cookie eaten, the contestant can add 5 minutes to the race time of any competitor they choose. All contestants except Ron complete their race (performed near their homes, with officials observing, so only one or two contestants race together, so none have knowledge of the race times of the others). Tara completes the race in the fastest time (2:24:19), with Sione finishing in a close second (2:25:57). Ron walks four miles (6 km) in under two hours. When the contestants return to the ranch, they discover that Helen ate one cookie and elected to add a five-minute penalty to Tara's time, thus Sione wins the challenge.

At the weigh-in, Tara and Kristin are close to losing 100 pounds for the season, which would represent the first time a woman has lost that amount while at the ranch. Though close, neither breaks that mark; Tara loses 2 pounds while Kristin gains 1 pound. Tara is particularly upset, given that she lost nothing the previous week. Jillian explains that Tara is overdoing it, and needs to listen to Jillian's advice to sleep and rest more. Mike is happy when it is revealed that his father, Ron, has lost 10 pounds, which puts his total loss at 103 pounds. Ultimately, the Black Team wins the weigh-in, and Ron has immunity. The Blue Team must decide between voting for Aubrey, Cathy, or Kristin. Cathy volunteers to be eliminated and the other team members follow her decision; she is sent home.

At home, Cathy reports she is down to 215 pounds and has inspired her other two daughters to lose weight as well. The three have lost a combined total of 141 pounds and hope to lose 205 pounds by the Finale.

Week 12
First aired March 24, 2009

After the elimination, the Black team is shocked to see Aubrey still on the ranch and Cathy gone. Aubrey admits that Cathy volunteered to go home so Aubrey could stay. Kristin is struggling with not having her mom there and Tara gives her a hug.

The next day, Ali tells the players that they will now play as individuals, with their original colors restored to them (as opposed to past couple seasons where contestants kept their blue and black shirts and contestants maintaining the Blue Vs. Black competition, a format change that would recur in latter couples/pairs seasons)—a change that pleases all of the players. Mike has lost the most weight on the ranch and Ali holds up his original Brown shirt, which several people can now fit into at once. Ali also tells the players they can choose their own trainers.

Bob and Jillian arrive to hear the contestant's decisions. Jillian thinks it is a cruel scenario, akin to choosing between your mother and your father. Sione, Filipe, Ron, Kristin and Aubrey choose Bob, while Helen, Laura, Tara, and Mike (who in the end flipped a coin to decide who to train with) choose Jillian. The players all hit the gym to train with their chosen trainers. Kristin becomes frustrated at Bob's intense focus on Sione and Filipe, and the two have a talk in which she explains that she needs him a lot if she is to reach her goal of being the first woman to lose 100 pounds on the ranch. Bob dedicates himself to her.

The players meet Ali outside for a challenge: each is given blocks that represent the amount of weight they have lost, and are able to distribute that weight to any of the other players, with the totals to be used later for their next, unknown challenge. Most of the other players pile their weights onto Tara, meaning that she ends up with 257 pounds of extra weight. Tara becomes upset, while the other players laugh and tell her it's all in fun. Tara walks away in tears, and Aubrey tries to comfort her, but Tara brushes her off. Later, Laura speaks with her, and Tara tells her she never wants to do the challenge and leave the ranch. Laura talks her out of it, and Tara emerges more determined than ever to defeat the others to show them she can win despite their opposition. Helen also had a lot of weight piled on her and ends up with 215 pounds; Ron says that she "left the fold" (by choosing Jillian), and needs to be warned as a result. Helen takes it as a compliment to the level of threat she poses.

The next challenge begins: the contestants are taken to a NASCAR track with broken down cars each painted in the players' colors. NASCAR champion Clint Bowyer shows up to tell them about the second part of the challenge. The players will each pull their assigned car for half a mile, with the weight from the previous activity added to their car. Everyone except for Kristin and Laura participated. Initially, Sione takes the lead, followed by Mike. Tara falls behind. Yet as the race goes on, she gradually gains on the others, and eventually wins, despite the extra pounds. Her reward is immunity, a ride around the track in a racecar, and a trip to a NASCAR event. Tara joyfully shares news of her upset victory with Jillian.

At the weigh-in, Tara needs to lose four pounds to become the first woman to lose 100 pounds on the ranch. She falls just shy, at three pounds. Kristin, who needs to lose three pounds to reach her goal of 100, is then weighed in. She loses eight pounds, making her the first woman to lose a hundred pounds on the ranch. All the players give her a wild round of applause. Ron loses ten pounds, and worries because Mike is second to last in weight loss for the week, meaning that Ron pushes his son closer to the yellow line. Ultimately, Aubrey and Filipe find themselves below the yellow line. At the vote, the players vote along original team lines, with all of the original Bob Team members voting for Aubrey, and only Tara and Laura voting for Filipe. Aubrey goes home. At home, Aubrey does not go regularly to the gym because of family demands, and gains back nine pounds in her first three weeks back home. She later loses the nine pounds that she gained plus another additional ten.

Week 13
First aired March 31, 2009

Due to Alison Sweeney giving birth just after the previous week's elimination, Ali Vincent, Season 5 winner, shares hosting duties with Michelle Aguilar, Season 6 winner. As the episode begins, the three players whose on-campus partners were eliminated in the first few weeks of the season return for a chance to rejoin the ranch. The players are Estella (White Team), Nicole (Red Team), and David (Orange Team), and the person with the highest percentage of weight loss will return and have immunity for the week. Estella loses 45 pounds, or 18.59%. David loses 46 pounds, or 11.70%. Nicole loses 87 pounds, or 32.34%. Nicole is thus the winner, and in fact has lost a higher percentage of weight than anybody on the ranch with the exception of Tara. Nicole begins training by Bob, while all of the players try to win her over to their side.

Meanwhile, Ron experiences chest pains, dizziness and nausea, and is sent to the hospital. Dr. Huizenga explains that Ron is bleeding internally, but a heart attack is ruled out. Tests show that he has two bleeding ulcers. The problem is fixed, and Ron is also treated with bloat-inducing red blood cells and fluids, and released.

Bob is shown focusing his attention on Sione and Kristin, his most promising trainees; he emphasizes to them that they must never quit. The challenge this week, moderated by Michelle Aguilar, involves contestants balancing on a platform above a swimming pool, with each platform supported by 40 ropes. The ropes are cut one by one, with the last person still balancing on their platform the winner. The prize is a one-pound advantage at weigh-in. Nicole, who has immunity, will instead win a one-pound penalty for the person of her choice. Sione, inspired by Bob, wins.

Alison Sweeney returns for the weigh-in. To everyone's shock, Nicole has gained 5 pounds, and because of this, she loses her immunity. The rule, already in place on the Australian Biggest Loser, is that if a person with immunity gains weight, they will lose it.

Mike is the Biggest Loser for the week, Tara becomes the second woman to lose 100 pounds on the ranch, and Ron and Nicole, both of whom gained weight, are up for elimination (Laura also gained weight, but it was not enough to place her below the yellow line). During deliberations, Filipe and Mike have a confrontation over the previous week's elimination, in which Ron had argued for voting off Filipe instead of Aubrey, which Filipe sees as a violation of their alliance. Thus, Filipe, Sione, and Helen vote for Ron, but Tara, Laura, Kristin, and Mike vote for Nicole, eliminating her for a second time from the game.

In the video update, Nicole is shown trying on a size 12 wedding dress (a contrast to her previous size 24 dress). She has lost 105 pounds and hopes to fit in a size 8 wedding dress for her wedding in June.

Week 14
First aired April 7, 2009

The drama is high as Ron returns from the elimination. Helen, Filipe and Sione all realize Ron is going to be out to get them now that he knows they wanted him gone. Ron calls out Filipe for telling him he was "fine" before the voting. Mike is also upset about his dad getting stabbed in the back.

The next day, Ali is waiting in the gym that is filled with silver platters everywhere for a temptation challenge. The 100 trays are hiding fattening snacks, some healthy Extra gum with cash, and one lucky golden ticket that will give the player who uncovers it the power to cast the sole vote at the elimination. As each player tries to get the lucky platter, they rack up the calories, Kristin only eating one or two food items before realizing that that's how she'll gain weight and possibly put herself below the yellow line. Tara consumes more than 4600 calories before the ticket is found. Eventually, Laura finds the golden ticket, and she and Tara scream with excitement as they realize they'll be safe another week. The trainers walk into the gym as the contestants are cleaning up the remnants of their temptation. Neither is pleased; Bob and Jillian pledge to train together to "kick their asses and beat the crap out of them." Everyone but Laura regrets how much they consumed, while Sione tries to rationalize his mistakes as a fight for power. Although extremely upset, Bob comments that once the contestants told him how the previous night's voting proceeded, he understands why everyone wanted the ticket.

Jillian takes her team to Subway for a healthy meal. Last season's father/daughter duo Coleen and Jerry walk in, and they teach the contestants how to make a healthy sandwich. Jillian gives some tips, like using mustard and vinegar instead of oil and mayonnaise, apples instead of fries and iced tea instead of soda. Everyone realizes that adjustments like these will help them keep a healthy lifestyle once they leave the ranch.

This week's challenge is at the Rose Bowl stadium, and Filipe is excited to be there. Their task is to run the stairs – all 2,156 of them. The first leg of the competition is men versus women, a "Battle of the sexes," with the winner of each gender competing in a second leg. The winner of the second leg receives a two-week trip for four to a fitness spa in Utah. Sione and Tara win the first leg and face-off against each other in the second leg. Although most of the race is close, Tara edges out Sione for the victory.

Back at the house, the scheming begins. Sione and Filipe become angry when Kristin doesn't say she would vote Ron out if she had the chance. Helen suggests Laura vote off her own partner, Tara, because they're not family. Kristin suggests that Tara may fall below the yellow line on purpose, knowing her partner Laura wouldn't vote her off. Before the weigh-in, Kristin brings Laura breakfast in bed, hoping that it might save her if she was to fall below the yellow line.

At the weigh-in, it is announced that Mike is nine pounds away from breaking the all-time record for weight-loss at the ranch, but he does not break the record, only losing five pounds. The contestants are shocked to see that Tara only lost three pounds, and she tries to reason with Jillian that she didn't try to throw the weigh-in on purpose. Ultimately, Helen and Sione fall below the yellow line, and it is up to Laura to cast the deciding vote. She ultimately decides to send Sione home.

At home, Sione has lost a total of 137 pounds, and he has also decided to switch careers from landscaping to being a personal trainer.

Week 15
First aired April 14, 2009

The episode begins with the aftermath of Sione's elimination. Filipe is upset, and Kristin goes to comfort him where he reads her a letter that Sione left him. He vows to fight harder to honor Sione.

The next day, the contestants walk up to a canyon for their next challenge. Using only cables and a zipline, they must traverse a 700 ft canyon that has a 110 ft drop. They are competing for a $25,000 kitchen makeover and restocking of their refrigerator. Filipe takes an early lead. Ron goes 40 ft and feels that his knee can't take it and the risk isn't worth it. Mike is terrified because of a lifelong fear of heights, but he completes the challenge. Tara loses her footing and spends more than a minute trying to get back on the line, but she picks up speed and takes the lead from Filipe with less than 100 ft left and wins. After the challenge, Alison tells them that it is makeover week. They are all excited.

The contestants go to Macy's where they are greeted by Tim Gunn from Project Runway, and he assists them in picking out new outfits. Each person receives a $1,000 gift card to buy a new wardrobe from Macy's. It is an emotional experience for everyone. He informs them that they are preparing to go to a Hollywood movie premiere. Afterwards, everyone goes to Warren-Tricomi salon to get new hairstyles. At the premiere, each contestant has a surprise visitor waiting for them. Filipe's wife, Helen's husband, Kristin's husband, Laura's best friend, Mike's brother/Ron's son, Ron's wife/Mike's mother, and Tara's mother have all come to surprise the contestants. The movie at the premiere turns out to be a movie about their journey on the show, bringing forth lots of emotions from both the contestants and their loved ones.

Because of the makeovers that week, everyone lacks the workout time they usually have in other weeks. Bob and Jillian both plan to make the last-chance workouts brutal to make up for lost time. Laura has been experiencing severe and persistent pains in her hip, leading Jillian to take her to see Dr. H. He informs them that Laura has a stress fracture in her hip and that it is the worst injury they've ever had on the show. Laura is instructed to be very careful and severely limit her activity because if she gets a full fracture, she will need surgery.

At the weigh-in, Mike knows that he is just 5 pounds away from breaking the record for most weight lost on the ranch, so he is nervous. He loses five pounds to set a new ranch record. Ron is ecstatic when he loses 6 pounds despite not working out as much, and Helen is shocked to lose 7 pounds. Kristin loses 2 pounds. Laura is the last to weigh in and is nervous because she knows that her injury has kept her from doing anything during the week; she gained 3 pounds. Jillian is devastated for her because she was finally starting to realize her strength and come into her own. Kristin and Laura are below the yellow line and up for elimination.

Tara pleads for Laura to stay, but Ron argues that if Laura stays on the ranch, she is not going to get the help she needs to take care of her hip. He says he knows what it's like because of his own hip issues. Filipe poses the question that what if they eliminated Kristin because she's the bigger threat and then something worse happened to Laura's hip. They all feel that if she stays, Laura may not take the precautions necessary to protect herself. Helen and Tara vote to eliminate Kristin, while Mike, Ron, and Filipe vote for Laura, thus eliminating Laura from The Biggest Loser. The viewers do not hear her dismissed with the "you are not the biggest loser" phrase that Alison usually states whenever a contestant is eliminated from the show. She is told that she is not going home alone, but that some doctors will go home with her.

At home, Dr. H goes with Laura to visit her doctor, and she is told that everything is going well. She is going to physical therapy to rehabilitate her legs. She has maintained her weight at 208 pounds (a loss of 77 pounds), and hopes to lose an additional 23 pounds by the finale.

Week 16
First aired April 21, 2009

Following the elimination of Laura the previous week, it is also revealed that Tara is the only player that has not fallen below the yellow line. Tara is grieving over the loss of her partner, and she blames Jillian for telling Mike to vote Laura off. Jillian confronts her, claiming that Laura needed to go home to recover from her injury and tells Tara to stop being selfish. Meanwhile, Bob talks with Kristin, trying to reassure her after the close vote. Kristin comes to the realization that she deserves to win, and she claims that she was afraid to express this for fear of getting the dream pulled away from her. The contestants are called to a challenge where they answer questions provided by Good Housekeeping. The prize is a trip to New York City. The competition comes down to Kristin and Mike with a tiebreaker based on who can guess the number of calories in a fried fish sandwich without going over. Mike wins the tiebreak by guessing within 5 calories of the correct number of 640. In the second challenge, the contestants are suspended from platforms 45 ft above the ground. Each player is given a rope that is attached to a pulley holding their platform in the air. If the contestant lets go, their platform falls and they are out. Mike drops out first due to his fear of heights. Filipe tries to break the concentration of the others by talking smack and shaking the rig that is supporting them, but in the end he drops out. The competition comes down to Helen and Tara, and despite Helen trying to bribe Tara, Tara wins her third straight challenge. The prize is either a one-pound advantage at the weigh-in or a $10,000 cash prize. Alison tells Tara she has until the weigh-in to decide.

During the last chance workout, both Bob and Jillian work their players to exhaustion, hoping to get them into the final five. During Jillian's workout, Mike becomes frustrated, and he punches the treadmill. Jillian claims that Mike's anger stems from his anger at always being the fat kid and that he has some issues to work out. Jillian tries to get Mike to admit that he is mad at his father for leading him and his brother down an unhealthy path. Mike claims that it was his fault for making the unhealthy decisions, but he agrees to talk to his father about the issue. During the confrontation, Ron admits that he played a role in Mike and his brother's weight problems, and that Mike has every right to be angry at him. Both father and son state that they will stay committed to losing weight and becoming healthy.

At the weigh in, Alison asks Tara whether she will take the one pound advantage or the $10,000. Tara elects to take the money, saying that she is confident in the work she has done this week. As she mounts the scale, she is given the choice to rescind her $10,000 choice and take the 1 pound advantage, and again, she declines. Her hard work pays off, and she loses 5 pounds. Ron weighs in next, hoping to finally get under 300 pounds, a weight he has not been at since he was a young teenager. Ron loses four pounds and reaches his goal, reaching 298 pounds. Mike weighs in and loses 8 pounds. Helen loses one pound and is distraught as she worked so hard this week. Filipe weighs in and has to lose more than three pounds to be safe. Filipe misses the mark by losing three pounds. Kristin is the last to weigh in, and Alison tells her she only has to lose three pounds to be safe. However, she gains one pound, and she and Helen fall below the yellow line.

After both Kristin and Helen plead their cases, Kristin asks to speak privately with Ron to make sure that he will keep his promise of never putting her name down at an elimination. Ron tells her he will hold to the promise he made to her and her mom and help her make it to the end. Kristin asks Ron to speak to Mike for her, since she needs three votes to be able to stay, since she has the least amount of weight loss. Ron says he will do so but says he might not be able to sway Mike. In a double-cross, Ron tells Mike to follow through and vote Kristin off, and to make sure that he and Tara were on the same page. Ron keeps his 'promise' to Kristin and votes for Helen. With 2 votes for Helen and one for Kristin, it came down to Mike who said he was at the ranch for himself. He votes for Kristin, making it a tie and sending Kristin home. Kristin is suspicious of the way the vote turned out, and she claims that there are no coincidences at the house. She tells Mike he 'took the easy way out'. Alison asks Ron whether he knew how Mike would vote, and Ron lies, claiming that he had no prior knowledge. Before Kristin leaves, Alison asks Mike if he thinks he can win the competition now. Both Mike and Ron state that Mike will win. Shots of Filipe, Tara, and Helen show that they are not impressed by Mike's confidence by glaring at him.

Twenty-four hours later, Kristin is shown driving back to her hometown. As she arrives back home, she is greeted by her mother and her husband who both tell her how great she looks. Her family toasts her, telling her how much she has inspired the family to all live healthier lifestyles. Two months later, Kristin is shown giving a motivational speech to help spread her message that began at the ranch—"Change is possible!" Several audience members communicate that they were inspired by Kristin to lose weight and make a change for the better. Kristin has lost a total of 132 pounds, and she hopes to weigh less than 200 pounds by the finale.

Week 17
First aired April 28, 2009

The challenge this week was that each contestant had to carry all of the weight that they have lost since starting on the ranch and climb up hills. At the top of each hill they dropped the weight that was equivalent to how much they had lost that week on the ranch. Although Filipe got a quick lead, Mike caught up quickly. Tara, seeing people ahead of her, was motivated to catch up and she was the first to reach the end and throw her bag off the edge symbolizing the fact that she is putting all that weight behind her and it will never weigh her down again. Tara won yet another challenge and again had to choose between $10,000 or a one-pound advantage. Whatever she did not choose would go to Mike, the second-place winner. This time, she chose the one pound advantage and Mike received the money. Although Filipe lost ten pounds and Ron nine, he and Ron fell below the yellow line. Filipe was eliminated and is now determined to help inspire his Tongan family. Ron and Mike have lost a combined total of 305 pounds on campus. They had exceeded the 300 pound goal they had set for themselves. Mike lost 11 pounds this week. Helen became the third woman in Biggest Loser history to lose 100 pounds on the ranch.

Week 18 (Semi-Final)
First aired May 5, 2009

After Filipe's elimination last week, Helen, Mike, Ron, and Tara are sent home for 30 days before they come back to the ranch for their penultimate weigh-in. They will also run a marathon and past season contestants including Jim Germanakos (Season 4 at-home winner), Bernie Salazar (Season 5 at-home winner), Heba Salama (Season 6 at-home winner), Ali Vincent (Season 5 winner), and Michelle Aguilar (Season 6 winner) give advice to the final four contestants. Tara finished the marathon first, coming in just under 5 hours. Helen finished second just under 6 hours. Mike finished third at around 9 hours having had to walk the entire way due to a hip problem incurred prior to the race. Ron had numerous medical issues while walking the marathon and finished at about 13 hours.

During the weigh-in, Mike and Ron fell below the yellow line, and it was up to America to vote on who would be in the final three. The results of this vote were announced during the live finale on May 12. America selected Mike to be in the final three.

Week 19 (Finale)
''Aired May 12, 2009.

Mike was voted into the top three, eliminating his father Ron. Jerry won the $100,000 at-home prize with a total percentage of weight loss of 47.97%. He weighed in second out of nineteen eliminated contestants, preceded only by his wife, Estella. Helen won the competition, with the highest percentage of weight loss in Biggest Loser history: 54.47%. Mike came in a close second (with 53.35%), and Tara was third (with 52.72%). All three finalists beat the record for most percentage lost in a season (a record that previously belonged to Erik Chopin from season 3 with 52.58%). Helen was the first finalist weighed, and Tara was last. Tara won more challenges than any other contestant, and became a finalist without falling below the yellow line. Finally, two new people, Erinn and Amanda, were up for America's vote and a spot on the next season's cast; whichever one did not get the vote would be given special assistance by trainers, therapists, nutritionists, and doctors to lose weight at home. Amanda won the vote, which means that Erinn will get the at-home special assistance package. Erinn would also appear in the week 12 episode of next season.

After the show
At the end of the Week 8 episode, contestant Dane Patterson is shown running and apparently finishing a marathon with his wife. News broke the day after the episode aired, when marathon participants of the Desert Classic Marathon in Arizona came forward to report that the couple had taken a ride in a van for part of the course. NBC issued a public apology that acknowledged that the contestant had not run the entire distance as aired on their show. Arizona Road Racers, the organizing body for the marathon, issued a statement on their website explaining that the Pattersons were not listed in the event results because they did not run the entire 42.195 km.

Jillian Michaels told TV Guide magazine that while filming the season she was investigated by the show's producer after contestant Filipe Fa accused her of doping participants by providing them with drugs. "I was so furious, so disgusted. I felt so betrayed," Michaels claimed. The week-long inquiry cleared Michaels.
