The Biggest Loser  Season 7 – March 24, 2009

Last week Cathy was eliminated, she sacrificed herself for her daughter, and for Aubrey.  This is definitely hard for Kristin, but Kristin also knows that any day can be her last, and that lights a fire under her.

The players meet Alison in the gym, and everyone’s colored shirts are dressed on mannequins.  Alison reminds the players that twelve (12) weeks ago they came to this campus to make a change, and were not only fighting for themselves, they were fighting for their team…but not any more.  As of right now it is back to singles, everyone got their individual colors back, and everyone was excited.  Can you believe, Mike has lost 118 pounds…it is truly amazing.

Alison reminds us, there is one other person you can count on…your training.  Now you have a big choice to make…who do you want to be your trainer.  Bob or Jillian?  You have a half hour to decide.  Jillian says, “I actually think this was a cruel decision…”

Tara picks Jillian; Mike picks Jillian…with a flip of a coin, and Bob was kinda hurt; Helen picks Jillian; Kristin picks Bob; Filipe picks Bob; Siona picks Bob…reminded of when Bob told him, “be the man your family thinks you are”; Ron picks Bob; Laura picks Jillian; Aubrey picks Bob.  Alison words of wisdom “Do what you need to do for YOU!”

Now it is workout time and this is a huge week for many players…those women that can be the first women to lose 100 pounds on campus.

Challenge time, part one of this weeks challenge is to take your blocks of weight and distribute among your players, and the prize is immunity, but we don’t know what will happen in part two of the challenge.

Everyone starts ganging up on Tara, and putting all their weight on Tara’s scale.  Tara get’s upset, “Alright Aubrey, shut your mouth,” and adds, “Aubrey’s a loudmouth, has always been a loudmouth and doesn’t know when to shut the F#!% up.”  Aubrey goes over to talk to Tara, but Tara really does not want to talk…seriously she just wants to be alone.  Her friend Laura goes out to talk to her.  Tara threatens to throw the next weigh-in.  Laura tries to encourage Tara to not give up, and reminds Tara how she wanted to quit before, but is so glad that she stayed and fought.

Tara has pushed Laura, and now Laura is going to be the strong one for Tara.  Laura reminds Tara that you are here for Tara, not anyone else.  The question is, did Laura give Tara the motivation to push herself through another week?

Part two of the challenge, and all we see are race cars…well beat up race cars that certainly will not be driving around the track…at least not like this car coming around the track…and here comes Clint Boyer – Nascar driver winner of 2008 Nascar series who offers an inspirational story.

The challenge is to pull your race car (weighing over 2 Ton plus the weight that was added to your car by the other players) nearly half a mile to the finish line.  An extra bonus to the winner from Clint Boyer…the winner will be the biggest VIP guest at Nascar event in California in October.

OMG such a close race, and despite the fact that Tara has an extra 257 pounds; she is passing out everyone…fighting for first place.  Maybe no one should have pissed her off…as Tara wins immunity!  How freakin cool…plus she gets ride around the track in an awesome Cheerios Corvette with Nascar racer, Clint Boyer.  More than anything, Tara is excited to tell Jillian how she succeeded. Jillian tells Tara, “my heart is bursting for you, stick is too them.”

Let’s get to the last chance workout…Helen knows she has a target on her back, and Jillian is pushing her.  Even though Tara has immunity, she knows this is her week to hit the 100 pounds lost target…all she has to lose is 4 pounds, but that is all that Kristin has to lose too.

Now it is time to weigh in.  Two people with the lowest percentage of weight loss will fall below the yellow line.  Tara weighs in first since she has immunity.  Unfortunately, she does not hit the 100-pound mark…losing 3 pounds this week; Tara has lost a total of 99 pounds since her time on the ranch.

Kristin gets on the scale, and loses 8 pounds.  She started on the biggest loser campus at 360 pounds, and today she weighs in at 255 pounds…being the first woman to lose over 100 pounds on the biggest loser campus…she has just made history.

Aubrey and Filipe fall below the yellow line…who will be eliminated?

Sione pleads for Filipe to stay; Kristin contemplates…should it be a decision from the heart or from the mind?

Aubrey is eliminated at week 12, and is not The Biggest Loser. Aubrey started at the ranch weighing 249,  now she weighs 191 pounds at her departure.   In a recap, after Audrey was home for 3 weeks, she has already gained 9 pounds.  Audrey did not want to fall into the same routine again, and realized ultimately you have to worry about yourself, and make time for you.

Next week on The Biggest Loser the eliminated players come back for a second chance; and does Ron have to cut his journey short?
