Narrowing Down for the Finale
Tonight was a two-part episode – one on children trying to change their lives and the final five narrowed down to the final four. The trainers and last year’s winner going to two different high schools was interesting. Many of the kids did not know what an eggplant or stalk of asparagus was – that was scary! In an attempt to get the kids more active and to eat healthier, the trainers chose five overweight kids to work with. The put them through their Biggest Loser workouts and talked about what healthy food choices to make.
In the second hour, the final five contestants completed a triathlon – swimming, biking, and running. It was nice to see everyone wait when Wylie fell back on the swimming part. At the weigh-in, Heather really surprised me by putting up a big number – 7 pounds. We saw her argue with Kim about her injuries and frankly, I figured she was milking it, but she still lost the weight. Jaron lost 6 pounds, Wylie lost 7 and big man Erik continued to be the leader, losing 12 more pounds for a total of 124. Kai only lost 4, so the elimination was between her and Jaron. I do not quite understand why the players at the ranch think they are any better than the home players are, but I knew Jaron did not stand a chance and they eliminated him unanimously.
We saw all the players leave for home and next week is the live finale – don’t miss it!
