Right off the bat Alison asks for volunteers and then she pulls 2 volunteers from each team and takes them into another room. In this room are stacks of poker chips.
Well, it turns out that each team is to bet on how much weight that they believe that their team will lose this week.
Red team bets that their team will lose more than 94 pounds this week which is 3.8%
They lost 3% last week
OMG! Have these women even watched Biggest Loser before? Do they have any idea what week 2 is like?
The average loss for week 2 is only 2%
I cannot believe that red team’s went and bet for their team to lose 94 pounds in week 2 which is the toughest week in Biggest Loser history.
That is 10 ½ pounds per person in week 2. And nearly double the average loss for week 2.
Then during the flag challenge Gayle goes over to work on solving the puzzle and we are told that just before this she said that she is dyslexic and bad at puzzles. Uh, if she knows this and told others that this is true about her then wouldn’t it have been better if someone else worked on solving it?
Dolvett was not happy when he found out how much weight their team needs to lose to win this week.
He spray painted 94 lbs on the wall to keep that goal in front of them. Uh, didn’t his momma teach him not to spray paint on the walls?
Bob seems very unhappy with Dolvett but how much of that is true and how much is for ratings? I gotta wonder?
BTW, I forgot to mention that Jillian is no longer on The Doctors. I am wondering if this might mean a return to The biggest Loser???
I would love to see this happen and yet I do like Dolvett. Yet, the team of Bob and Jillian is just pure magic. They are friends and yet they like to compete with each other. Nothing mean, just clean fun.
Ok, everyone seems to be working out except one.
What is up with Mike? It seems like all he’s been doing is taking breaks?
I believe that he was the one that was telling that he gained 50 pounds the summer he was 12. Which is when he met his half brother(?) for the first time? And what father lets their 12 year old gain 50 pounds over a summer and smoke like a smokestack?
Just when I was so glad to see Mike go home he finally admits that he has abandonment issues and seems to actually be a nice guy. So then I was see sawing about him going home. Course we hate to really see anyone have to go home ….well, for the most part. I mean there ARE some people that you can’t wait to see go home and when they do you do a HAPPY DANCE!!!!! WHOOHOO!
Ok, here are the weight loss amounts I have so far. I will need to watch what I taped and get the rest of the names and numbers and post them soon.
Black team:
Gayle -5 pounds
Megan - 4 pounds
Cassandra - 5 pounds
Emily- 4 pounds
Chris - 6 pounds
Joe- 8 pounds
Jeremy -7 pounds
Chism- 8 pounds
Red team:
Ok, so far there are quite a few Biggest Loser contestants that we like but the one that stands out the most to me right now (as I am running out of time to finish this. It has started to storm out and we need to get home) is Chism. I think that he seems like a really nice kid and he certainly needs to lose the weight.
WHOOOHOO! Chism sure pulled out the win for his team didn’t he? 8 pounds in week 2? WOW!
And, Josh had thought how ironic it would be if the 5 pound advantage was what put the black team ahead. Guess what? It was! The red team must REALLY be kicking themselves and I gotta wonder if the 2 women that bet the 94 pounds will be going home soon. I mean come on, the rest of the team was really unhappy with them. When push comes to shove I really think that this could come back to haunt them.
What do you think?
That’s it for now. Will try to post more soon.
See, I AM trying to do better about posting. It would be so much easier with home internet service but property taxes being paid are much more important.
Take care
