It was weigh in day at the Biggest Loser House on Friday and emotions were definitely running really high. Who was going to be up for elimination? Who was going to be below the yellow line? How much weight will each contestant have lost?

Last Chance Saloon

Both groups were put through a gruelling ‘last chance’ training session to give them an extra push before weigh in. Miriam did well even though she felt it was ‘relentless’ and Angie couldn’t believe the change in Miriam since their ‘run in’ earlier in the week. Angie described the last chance training session as ‘hell on earth’ – judging by the look of exhaustion on the contestants’ faces, she was very probably right!

Rick thought he was going to die during the session because Angie was working him so hard. But she was pushing him because she felt he had to up his game ‘10 million times’! Jamie had to have a medic check out his shoulder during his session – it has been giving him problems since he dislocated it on Tuesday. Dave, the oldest of the group worked really hard – in fact he has put in 100% all week.

Richard’s team were warned that if they weren’t wringing with sweat during his ‘last chance’ training session that he would make them run to the front gates and back!

Feeling Good

On Richard’s team, the two contestants who have been consistent all week were the Brown team – Kevin and Mark. He said they were like two schoolboys competing against each other and the world. But they’re hard work seemed to have paid off as they won immunity from elimination by winning the challenge and Kevin said he felt much healthier and felt like he could jump up and do anything he wanted to do. His motivation for being at the Biggest Loser house was so he could be around for his autistic son.

Raz needs to be a bit more determined so she can help Lisa Marie. Lisa Marie is in the house because she was told by the doctor that if she didn’t lose weight she could be dead in a year so, it really is life or death for her. She weighed in at 25 stone and 10lbs and is the heaviest lady at the house.

Visualisation

Richard used visualisation with his team to help them see themselves slimmer and healthier. All of a sudden Maria, who had been rock hard all week, was sobbing. She said the thought of people being proud of her had really got to her. During the visualisation, she was lying in the grass with her sons and she could really feel their love – she felt like she was totally there.

The Weigh In

The weigh in had some surprises in store! The person who lost the most weight was Mark at 1 stone 3lbs followed by Michelle at 1 stone 2lbs. But the Biggest Loser overall will be based on the couple who lose the highest percentage of weight combined. This week that was Rich and Michelle at 4.37%. This couple are at the house to lose weight so they can have a baby – Rick’s sperm count is low down to his weight.

The people who lost the least weight were Miriam and Dave – even though the two of them had worked so hard! Here is the leader board as it stands at the moment:

David and Jamie and Raz and Lisa Marie are up for elimination. The other couples have to choose who to eliminate after hearing a final plea from the couples under the yellow line – cruel eh?

And then, there’s the wait til Monday to see who gets voted off! Oh the tension!
