Biggest Loser season 13 week 4: Tuesday night, after a crazy, muddy challenge, we almost witnessed another contestant walk off the ranch, but all was made right with Mrs. Santa Claus. Later, after a weak weigh-in, Gail learned that when you don't go the extra mile, you find yourself on a plane home.
The question: Can you lose weight without a gym? Alison asked the contestants this question because the team who loses the obstacle course challenge won’t have access to the gym all week. And the obstacle course was nuts! Battering rams, hard hats and mud. The mud comes in if the team answers a question incorrectly. Buddy wasn’t there because his wife was giving birth to their son.
Quote of the week, from mud-soaked Jeremy: “We are the dumbest pieces of $@*T’!”
Red team had a much better trek and won the challenge, so the black team is gym free this week. (Don’t worry, Bob can put you through a day of squats and lunges.) And Santa was gloating.
This week, Dolvett traveled to Chicago to meet with the aqua team and gave them fitness trackers. We’ll see them again next week and find out whether they’ve lost enough weight (50 pounds total)
Then … another quitter? Chris (Mrs. Santa Claus) locked herself in the bathroom and didn’t want the cameras on her. She was tired of the whole thing. Talking to her husband didn’t work, so they sent in Bob. His response to her: “This house is not fun! This house is hard, hard work.” Finally, he got her to come around and not throw in the towel.
While Bob was pep-talking Chris, Dolvett was kicking Conda out of the gym. All her eye rolling, muttering and back-sassing put him over the edge. “You don’t take your condition serious. That pisses me off,” Dolvett told Conda. “I can’t help somebody who doesn’t want help.”
The weigh-in: Yikes, that was quick! Buddy was back from baby duty and it was time to see how he did as well as the gym-less black team.
BLACK TEAM
Emily: 9
Chism: 12
Cassandra: 6
Jeremy: 11
Gail: 5
Chris: 7
Megan: 2
RED TEAM
Buddy: 10 (wow, what did he do at home?)
Roy: 6
Kimmy: 6
Mark: 11
Kim: 10
Nancy: 5
Conda: 10
Red team killed it, especially pain-in-the-butt Conda. Bob gave her a “gurl, please” eyeroll.
Elimination: Black team heads to the elimination room but Emily is safe because she was the big loser. The vote went back and forth between Chris and Gail and it was up to Emily, who voted for Gail.
The update: She is now down 56 pounds. At home she walked and walked and walked and developed tendinitis in her hips, so she’s working out in the pool now. Even at home, she doesn’t want to let Bob down. That’s giving it 100 percent.
Next week: Aqua team is back! Did they lose enough?
