Six people are left. The Black Team is still whining about how they were left to die on the first day… yawn. That whole endless rant has really taken the steam out of having three teams this season.
Oh yeah -- now we only have two. Kim was given her pink slip.
This week was all about the real world -- and not the MTV show. This provided early opportunity for our plug o' the week: Ziploc. It's perfect for portion control!
As part of the real-world experience, each of the contestants were forced to work in a pizzeria. In case you were worried about temptation, many were washing dishes and cleaning the bathrooms. I think that would be enough to wipe out anyone's appetite.
This week's challenge had each contestant hitting speed bags as many times as possible within a set amount of time. Oh, did I mention that each person was on a trampoline? Each round put the bags a bit higher. Ultimately, Hollie was the most coordinated and won the challenge.
As a prize, Hollie received a 1-pound pass for the week. Was it enough to keep her above the yellow line? Here are the results:
Name | Starting Weight | Current Weight | This Week's Loss | Total Loss | |

Neil | 421 | 288 | -10 | -133 | |
| |||||
Nicole | 279 | 211 | -1 | -68 | |

Isabeau | 298 | 225 | -5 | -73 | |

Bill | 334 | 213 | -9 | -121 | |

Hollie | 255 | 196 | -5 | -59 | |

Poor Nicole. Not only did she only lose one pound this week, she went to elimination for a second week in a row. Also, with four remaining Black Team members left, Nicole was as good as gone... Neil had better keep pulling those big numbers!
We are down to the final weeks, which means that NBC can no longer drag out each episode for two hours. I love "The Biggest Loser," but all of the recaps tonight were a bit much. See you for next week's one-hour episode. -- Rachel Cericola
