2.2.10 Biggest Loser Episode Review Episode 9 Week 5


This week’s Biggest Loser was full of surprises as the teams on the ranch pressed in and the competition stepped up. The week’s challenge was inspired by the upcoming Super Bowl as the contestants had to hit a tackling dummy 1,000 times. Michael won the challenge and took home immunity. I think he is the first contestant in Biggest Loser history to win an immunity challenge by not moving his feet.

The big surprise on the ranch was the return of the two teams who had been eliminated the first week. Both teams weighed in with the winner securing a place on the ranch. The yellow team comprised of Oneal and Sunshine won the weigh-in securing their place on the ranch, but along with the victory came the responsibility of casting the only vote this week for elimination.

Meanwhile, Miggy ends up getting her appendix, a cyst, and a growth taken out of her. Now that’s a hardcore weight loss technique. Because of the surgery she is put under doctor’s orders to not exercise too hard. This is a further blow to her already fragile psyche after losing her daughter the week before.

At the weigh-in the weight loss totals are definitely down this week as hardly anyone reaches double digits. Michael finds out he needs to lose 30 pounds in the next two weeks to become the quickest contestant to lose 100 pounds. He loses 13 pounds, leaving him with a challenge of 17 next week to get the record. Big John of the brown team loses only six pounds and ends up being eliminated.
