Just a reminder that there’s a “Very Special Episode” of Biggest Loser tonight featuring some of the best transformations of past contestants.

I’m not planning on writing a recap for the episode. Am expecting it will just be a series of short catch up bits with some of the success stories.

People don’t want to hear about the failures like David Hilyander who’re still morbidly obese to this day or Chris who piled the weight back on after starving his way to victory. They want fluffy feel good stories and that’s what they’ll get.

Should be an entertaining hour of TV. Or you could watch Mythbusters on SBS. These are the only two options that are acceptable. :-)

Friday night on The Biggest Loser we left Joe and Leigh battling it out in the Jacob’s Ladder challenge.

Tonight we find out which of them lasts longer.

Also, Greg’s week at Camp comes to a close. Has he learned enough to survive on the outside?
Probably not!

Later in the episode it’ll be Weigh-In and Elimination time again. Joe has Immunity and if Leigh wins the Challenge he ought to be safe with the 1kg advantage…

Joe and Leigh are still going at the 2 hour 20 minutes mark. Shannan says that holding a position like that for more than 2 hours is insane by itself.
Leigh and Joe are still going at the 2 hour 45 minute mark, too. They’re up over 7,000 feet of climbing their tilted ladders now. Makes me sore just thinking about it!
Shannan says they’ve climbed the equivalent of Mount Kosciusko, Australia’s tallest mountain. Awesome!

Last night on The Biggest Loser… MAKEOVER DAY!!!

We saw most of the makeovers last night and they were all looking pretty darn good. But the ads are saying they’ve saved the best till last.

Tonight, more reveals, hooray! Lara, Sharlene and… Kellie? I think that’s who’s left, I forget.
Anyway, later in the episode Greg’s going to chuck another tantrum, this time in the boxing ring.
Then the weekly Challenge looms. There’s a pool and there’s a ladder thing and they climb the ladder thing or fall in the pool… I guess.

Last night on The Biggest Loser the Ice Cream Man came to visit Camp Biggest Loser for Temptation. Yay!

Joe won Immunity via that Temptation. Boooooo!

Greg also made a surprise return to Camp after Michelle took pity on him. He’s been struggling with the weightloss on the outside and so she’s brought him back to Camp for a week to give him a tune-up.

Tonight is MAKEOVER DAY!

If they make Lara’s hair that fucking awful white they inflicted first on Kimberlie and have ruined women with in every season since? I’m going to be really pissed.

Sunday night on The Biggest Loser Sarah and Rebecca fell below the Yellow Line with Meg having mercy on Sarah and opting to cast her vote Rebecca’s way, ensuring her elimination.

Tonight… ICE CREAM MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, Greg’s getting a special visit from Michelle and a surprise return to Fat Camp. Which is very lucky for him but not so lucky for his stomach.

We also get teased with Makeover Day starting but as I’m writing this post after having watched the episode I can tell you right now… It ain’t happening tonight!

Anyway, after the elimination they’re all sitting in the lounge room discussing sending Rebecca.
Joe’s lost his best friend in the competition, who he characterises as “like a sister”. Riiiight.
