Previously on The Biggest Loser… Lydia won at The Contest/Challenge thing and earned herself a 1kg weight advantage at weigh in plus the right to give someone a 1kg penalty. Ouch!

Also, Michelle’s been home for the week to visit her Mum, thanks to Margie’s generosity.

Tonight! Steve’s going to blow up at Graham’s nut habit. Michelle unleashes her “secret weapon” for Last Chance Training – Hamish! And there’s a big surprise at weigh in?

But first, who’s Lydia giving the penalty to? She’s giving it to Graham. Lydia says he’ll have to dig deep to overcome the challenge and she thinks Steve will understand why Lydia picked him.
Graham has the sads because he’d voted to keep Lydia in the game so it felt like a low blow. But he’s confident he can overcome it.

After the challenge, Alex is back! Hooray!
He had a lung infection apparently and is currently on antibiotics to sort it out. Should be right in a few days, he says.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Michelle got sent home for the rest of the week, courtesy of Margie. It wasn’t done with malice, for a change, it was Michelle’s mother’s birthday and she wanted to go home and see her. Awww!

Also, Alex is not at all a well boy. He’d been struggling with illness all week but managed to get up and participate in some of the Temptation. Later that night an ambulance had to be called as he started experiencing excruciating chest pains.

Tonight… we find out what’s wrong with Alex? Maybe?

Also Kurt Fearnley is at Camp to have a chat and a workout with the contestants. He’s cheating, he has wheels!

Then the weekly challenge/contest is a weight based endurance game where the contestants can stack weight on to a bar across the shoulders of the other competitors.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Lydia and Michelle both had a bit of a cry on losing The Contest. Awwww.

Tonight! Temptation is another 24 hour marathon thingy. If Immunity is on offer you can bet there’ll be some takers!

Later a dramatic late night visit from the ambulance men for a very unwell contestant. Hope they’re going to be okay. :-/

But the show picks up as Margie is about to decide who she’s going to send home until weigh in. Will she pick Michelle and be nice? Or will she pick herself because she’d love to go home too?
Margie says it’s been a hard decision because she’d love to see her family and friends but she doesn’t think she’s quite ready for that yet. So the next best person would be Michelle because Margie knows Michelle loves her Mum and her Mum’s birthday is tomorrow and she says she hopes Michelle doesn’t lose focus on the outside.
Michelle asks Margie if she’s sure and Margie says yes, of course, it’s her Mum’s birthday and reiterates that she doesn’t want Michelle to lose focus.

Michelle has to leave Camp immediately. No trainer, no gym access and so on until weigh in. Michelle thanks Margie again on her way out.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Lydia, Bek and Brenda returned to the game! I am only excited about one of those things.

Tonight the depths of Michelle’s binge eating will be revealed, Alex has a breakdown in training and the weekly challenge is kicking off extra early, involves a pool and… balls?

Okay!

But before any of that all four trainers are sitting in Loser Lounge waiting for the contestants to come out of the Elimination/Salvation room. They’re having a chat about who they think will come back. They’ve all got it pegged as being the one that’ll be seen as the least threatening.
Mish tells us that that means Lisa because she doesn’t have the weight to lose.

Previously on The Biggest Loser… the Eliminated Contestants are back! Kinda. They’re competing for a weigh in pass for tonight’s weigh in to maybe get a ticket back into the game if they don’t get eliminated or… something.

Tonight! We find out who gets to go to the weigh in and what the results are. Both for the eliminated contestants and the remaining contestants. The remaining contestants all have immunity from the elimination to follow but there seems to be a twist in the proceedings for the eliminated folk.

But first, how’re Bek’s boobs doing? The end of the Iron Man race is still up in the air. Will Shane overtake Bek and pick up a weigh in pass? It looks like it’s between them two, though it seems like Bek’s a long way ahead. Hamish is finally getting out onto the water as Shane is maybe halfway to the boat?
