The Biggest Loser: Jez is Eliminated
Wow, tonight was just crazy! There was drama with Amy and Kim left over from Kim’s comments last week. The teams were divided up into trios, which Jez got to choose when he won the food poker game. The new trios were Kae, David and Hollie; Amy, Julie, and Bill; Bryan, Nicole, and Ryan; and Jez, Neil, and Isabeau. They could choose their trainer and Amy chose to go to Jillian, which rewarded her with no weight loss this week – zero, zilchm nada. But, maybe it helped her physically because she helped her trio win the challenge, which got them each a Bow-Flex home gym.
Weigh-in also saw Ryan gain a pound, which put his trio in jeopardy. Whoever fell below the yellow line of lowest loss percentage, the other trios would vote for one person on that trio to leave. The last trio to weigh-in was Jez’s. They only needed to lose 10 pounds and Jez started off strong with 6 pounds. Isabeau put up 4, so they were set. All Neil had to do was NOT gain weight. When he stepped on the scales, it said he had gained 17 pounds. I thought people were going to pass out! He played the “I don’t know what happened” face really well, but when finally confronted, people realized he drank two gallons of water before the weigh-in to try to keep himself and the Blue Team members in the game. Bob nearly blew a gasket and Jillian was yelling at him as she walked by. Amy, Julie, and Bill voted for Neil, but everyone else voted for Jez and he was eliminated.
I really hated this week – I liked Neil, but now I am ticked at him, as are all the Black Team members. I liked Jez and hated to see him go. But, he went home and continued his weigh loss for a total of 103 pounds, so regardless of the underhanded game playing of Neil, Jez still lost a lot of weight.

Oh I am so angry with Neil right now. I liked him too, but I am no longer a Neil fan. That was low! JEEZ!!!

Not only was it low, it was kinda stupid. 17 pounds? Could he not have drank like one gallon of water and made it a little less obvious? And for Jez to be the one to suffer because of it really angered me.

17 pounds is an absolutely ridiculous amount to gain- how terribly obvious! I wish everyone would just play fair and not try to do things like that.

If they do not remove Neil from the show immediately, I will NOT watch this show again. He isn’t just a loser he is a cheater.

Had add that what Neil did was so low, personally I feel he’s just made an a of himself.
