Sure, I get home at 830pm thinking that’s when the show started, and noooooo I have to sit here and watch this stupid “Is the senator gay? Did he solicit homosexual behavior in a bathroom at an airport?” Matt Lauer thing. UGH.

Anywho - just waiting for the show to start!

[break]

Last week, everyone went to Jamaica, and the Black Team wound up going to elimination. Jim was sent home.

So far - 653lbs. have been lost on the campus.

All the trainers are pushing their teams… Black team has to make up for last week. Red team has to shape up because they’re slacking. Blue team has yet to win a challenge.

Challenge

3 metal frames set up on the beach, one by one, the members carry the rig as far as they can. The heavier they are, the more weight they have to carry. The team that carries their rig the farthest wins, and the winning team gets video letters from friends and family back home.

Women start out carrying 60% of their body weight, men carry 85%.

Hollie’s up for the black team… let’s go, chica! Amy and Nicole are on for red and blue. Once you put the rig down, your turn’s over. Hollie’s HAULING IT!

Black Team - 150 ft.
Blue - 49 ft.
Red - 20 ft.

Jez (black) lost his balance and dropped it, and Kae from blue passed him.

Blue - 180
Black - 174
Red - 120

Phil’s up for red… he’ll haul.

This looks hard as hell on the sand.

Bill and Phil are neck and neck… and we go to break.

[break]

The guys are rockin’ it, but Bill dropped the rig and the Red Team won the videos. *sigh*

Okay, it’s cry time…

“I don’t think the red team has won 5 out of 6 challenges, I think Phil has won 5 out of 6 challenges.” - Julie (Black Team)

WTF is UP with Amy’s eyes? I hate fake colored contacts, and her dark blue ones are standing out so bad… it’s unnatural looking. She looks like crap. Ugh.

Jillian tells the Black team while they’re making lunch that a good tip while cooking is to chew Wrigley’s Extra Sugar Free Gum! Wheee!

Kim’s pushing the red team… she’s pissing people off… she’s swearing at people! OMG!
David walks out, “Nobody talks to me that way!”

[break]

We come back to Jillian drilling her team on the treadmill…

Hollie’s mother is in a relapse with Leukemia… Jillian breaks it to her, just as she’s really doing very well with her weight loss. But she encourages her to make a decision based on what’s right for HER. She’s comforting, and Hollie leaves the show! :(

She says she feels bad about leaving her team…

OMG… Hollie - Prayers are with you and your mom!

At the weigh-in, Alison announces that her mom passed away that very night.

This is really really sad… :( I hope Hollie did well at home, for her own self.

Blue Team
Nicole [252] 248 -4
Neil [365] 355 -10
Kae [184] 178 -6!! (That’s amazing, given that she’s a woman, and so light already. Bob calls her a “machine”!)
Ryan [331] 320 -11 (He needed a big loss…)

-31 / 2.74%

Red Team
Amy [268] 265 -3 (Maybe because she took those fugly contacts out… lol)
David [328] 323 -5
Bryan [308] 304 -4
Phil [346] 342 -4

-16 / 1.28%

Black Team
Hollie -3 (they counted her loss - that’s awesome)
Isabeau [264] 259 -5
Julie [199] 195 -4
Jez [302] 295 -7
Bill [279] 268 -11

-30 / 2.36%

The Red Team goes to elimination… Guess Kim’s little fit-pitching didn’t work, did it? Was she trying to be what she thinks Jillian is? WTF!?!

Red Team’s going down to 3… David is the team’s biggest loser and can’t be eliminated.

Kim tells Phil that he is second to Kae (from the Blue Team). Amy freaks out because Kim “just threw her under the bus”. Kim states facts: If they get rid of Phil, the whole team is done for. They’ll hit the elimination room every week til they’re all gone. She says “So help me if you come back here on a tie. I’ll be SO PISSED!”

David votes first: States it’s still a team game and they needed to keep their star player. He chose Amy. And her stupid fake blue contacts.

Amy voted strategically: She chose Phil. Thinking forward, for when the teams are apart. It’ll be harder to get rid of him later. (She IS right. But I hate her and her stupid fake blue eyeballs.)

Phil chose based on numbers: Amy and her stupid fugly fake-ass blue contacts. People with skin that dark don’t have eyes that color naturally. What a dumbo. And she’s got this “don’t mess with me” pout on her face. Yes, this is quite annoying for me. Sorry. :P

Bryan is convinced this person can do it from home: He chose Phil.

OH MY GOD A FUGGIN’ TIE! The Blue Team decides their fate. Unreal.

They’re gonna get rid of Phil. I know it. I can feel it. UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE!

They decided as a team to go with the biggest threat. They’re all crying, and they voted Phil off.

Unbelievable.

Phil says he’s honored that they think he’s a big threat, but he starts crying - says he’s going to miss them all, it’s an honor to have been there, and he loves each and every one of them.

God I hope he goes home and kicks ass. I mean, I hope Hollie did too - she needs this love for herself so much right now. But DAMN I hope Phil uses this to his advantage.

He started the show at 403 and he’s 295 now. He’s lost 46 lbs. at home. The whole family’s lost weight. He’s lookin’ pretty hot! I’m willing to bet he’ll drop another 40-50 before the finale… watch and see.

*NEXT WEEK*

Teams are done, and we’re in for the most shocking weigh-in ever. They show everyone saying “How is that possible!?!?” Oh boy!

Okay gang - over to you… chat it up in the comments! :)
