Biggest Loser 11: Episode 3

NEW TRAINERS!!!

Cara is beautiful. Wow. Stunning. And she yells like Jill. "I'm here to bring back the fighter in each and every one of them.

Brett. Also YUM. And damn, he has wicked moves. And he was pre-med. Wait, does he have a degree in anything? I like that he was overweight. He can relate. That's good.

The Unknowns are doing some awesome workouts. They look so much more fun than boring gym workouts. I hope they know how lucky they are to be getting such fun workouts.

Not sure why they have to, as the voice over claims "make a comeback." They have two more weeks of immunity. WHO CARES if they're winning now? As long as they're working.

Whoa. Calling people out on how they're working. It's kind of a dick move, but the way they're doing it is, I think, the right thing. They're telling him how to break through. I can tell they WANT him to lose more weight. That comes through clearly. So, this is an intervention I can get behind, but poor Q (red guy who only lost 6 pounds last week).

"Let us help you!" say Rulon. I love that guy. I have a soft spot for wrestlers. I have a major crush on him you guys. I can't help it. Mostly because I want him to be awesome, but I like what I'm seeing thus far.

Back to the ranch, and it's challenge time! Oh, sweet, the Unknowns get to participate in the challenge, at the SAME TIME, unlike last week. Why are they being painted as the "bad guys"? I don't get it. Wait, only two people get to meet face to face? Weird. But, yeah Curtis Stone, he is hot, if for nothing but that accent. Rrrrrrow.

The challenge is to balance an egg on the bottom of a frying pan as long as you can. Man, I hope they made sure all the eggs were the same size. I mean, I'm sure they did, but I'd be all paranoid if I were in that challenge.

The Unknowns plan out giving the advantage to someone on their team who needs it (most likely, one of the women). Good call, since most of those guys don't need a two pound advantage. I like that.

The B&J team, though, they are pissing me off. They're getting mad at some silly shit talking. "they just think that they're awesome. They think that they're better than us." - courtney Um, haven't you guys been shit talking behind their backs for the last week? Yeah, I thought so.

The Unknowns fling their eggs at the B&J team. HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAA. How fun and silly. They give the challenge to Denny. It's so cute. I know the Unknowns you guys. They're fun and adorable. How are they the bad guys?

Marcy (team aqua) wins on the B&J side. Good for her.

Dr. H interviews the Unknowns. Blah blah blah YOU'RE DYING!!!!! blah blah blah.

Holy crap, Rulon survived a plane crash. That's ridiculous.

Nine people in the brown team's family have had bypass surgeries. That's bananas.

Another projected date of death. Dr H, that shit is CREEPY.

Back to the Unknowns. "It's my job to make these people lose weight, immunity or not" -cara

Austin (brown son) has a neck beard. It's really grossing me out. If you can't grow hair on your face, you shouldn't have a beard.

commercial -- Oh, hey Bob is shilling Turbo Tax now. Bob, the com over bangs thing does NOT look good on you. Please stop it.

Back to the boring old ranch. Treadmill. Machine. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Oh, hey, a sob story. Boo hoo!

Oh, hey another sob story, this time with twins! It's my lucky day. Okay, it's pretty sad. =(

Oooooh, it's Curtis Stone! I love his hair. I know, I know, it's silly hair, but he wears it well.

Ooooh, to win the 2 lb advantage, they have to guess the number of calories in the meal they're cooking. I like these.

First is acorn squash salad. It looks DELICIOUS. Oh man. I want that salad in my face.

Next is quinoa and halibut. Also looks delicious. Now I want to make this. Damn you Biggest Loser.

Oooh, a pear dessert. I'm less sold on this, mostly because I wouldn't be eating the sour cream. Plus I'm full just thinking about the salad and main course. hahahha.

And it's time to guess the number of calories.

Aqua mom says: 480 calories
Pink mom says: 440 calories

Answer: 572 calories. That's what you get for eating dessert with lunch!

Aqua mom wins!

Curtis Stone tip: Make your own dressing! Vinegar and olive oil. I am pro-this tip.

Challenge #2! Working against each other, B&J team only.

Oh, crap, it's one of those "target other people" challenges, where the person who is the weakest (aka not a threat) usually wins. LAME.

The winning team gets the only vote at elimination. I hate that too. It really sucks for that team. =(

But, the challenge is fun to watch!

I wouldn't want to win it though. Because, suck.

Oh, it looks like they all agreed to give it to solo orange lady. Okay, I like that. It makes sense. Good strategy. Plus, orange is getting the most exercise, which is great for her.

It is weird that they put this type of challenge so early in the season, where people aren't trying to screw each other over yet.

Ug. Black team wants to go home. Lame.

Last chance workout!!

Sweet, Jill is climbing all over everyone! I love that. No, seriously, I love it. It's hilarious.

And now there's vomit.

It's weigh in time!

It looks like the Unknowns did a pretty awesome job. Brown son lost 15lbs! Rock on! Red husband, who was the slacker from the beginning of the episode lost a shitton of weight, too. Good for him!

Aqua team: 13lbs -- 2.91% (after the advantage)
Good thing they have that 2lb advantage, because I agree with Bob, a girl as large as Aqua daughter should be losing more than 6lbs on the ranch.

Orange team: 8lbs -- 3.45%

Green team: 22lbs -- 3.58%

Blue team: 13lbs -- 1.75%
Four pounds? Oh, man. Oh man. Poor guy. It sounds like his week was messed up. =(

Purple team: 12lbs -- 2.58%

"We've been together every day since the day we were born." -- one of the twins. Um. That's weird.

Black team: PLUS EIGHTEEN

Holy blatant water loading Batman. Dude.

And then, they play dumb. Really, really? You're up there smiling, and you're pretending like you don't know how it happened?

Bob sounded like he was going to cry when he was telling them he was disappointed.

And, they're still pretending like they don't know how it happened. How dumb do they think people are?

Seeing them hobble off the scale makes me want to cry. They need to be on the ranch so bad. They need to lose weight so bad. To give up on that? =(

Elimination. =(

Dan. He wanted to go home to his daughter. I really hope he can do this at home now.

Dan at home. He looks like he's doing well. Thank goodness!! He looks fantastic! And it's just the beginning. YAY.

  1. I have to say, hubby and both don't like the 'unknown' team. and I thought the 'throwing the egg over the way' thing was pretty douchey. I mean, what if they had hit someone and cost them the chance to win it? I think they think a little too highly of themselves. :D The 'yellow team' guys especially.
