TBL 7×01 – The Biggest Loser Australia 2012 Begins!

Australia’s one of the fattest nations on Earth, Shannan, Michelle, Commando and Tiffiny tell us.
And it’s costing us a lot of money and costing some a chance at happiness and love and you can expect a lot more of that as the series goes on!

But first a short montage of past seasons… followed by the announcement that this year, instead of couples or families we’re back to singles.

GOT IT? SINGLE FATTIES. LOOKING FOR LURVE. And not the temporary fix of a tub of ice cream and a chick flick!

Lots of shots of the various contestants facing themselves in their underpants-clad reflections in the mirror. And tears about nobody wanting to be with someone so fat.

Sixteen unattached Australians getting pushed by the country’s toughest trainers. All four of the trainers are looking even more ripped than ever. Michelle, in particular, has abs you could bounce a sammich off!

And, of course, the challenges and Temptations to push them to the breaking point – and beyond. One of Tiffiny’s charges throws in the towel at one point during a workout.

Biggest Brother Loser! Yes, they’ve gone ahead and installed spy cameras and microphones all over Camp to catch the sneaky binge eating and the friendships forming… and the early stages of courtship! Awww, chubby love!

But of course it’ll all come down to the weight lost each week as measured by the Scales of Doom.

Tonight! The competition begins with the trainers heading to the four corners of Australia to pick up their new team members. Meeting them at home or at their jobs or even at a restaurant!

TBL 6×51: Train the Trainers Day!

Previously on The Biggest Loser… JOE WAS SENT HOME.

Oh, sorry. That was Monday’s episode. I’m still so happy!

Last night saw the sending home of Rebecca, again, after her unsurprising loss to Sarah in a tug-o-war.
The remaining contestants then went on their Reflection Hike, loading backpacks with the weight they’ve lost over the past however many weeks it’s been and hiking their way through some sand dunes, the location of which was not disclosed. That I can recall, anyway.

TONIGHT! TRAIN THE TRAINERS! Yeah babyyyy!

Then an off-road race versus an off-road car. Huh? Cars go faster than people.
Also Leigh will hop out of a perfectly good plane! Tandem skydive to overcome his fear of heights. Maybe.

TBL 6×50: Left. Left. Left Right Left. I left my wife in New Orleans…

Previously on The Biggest Loser Joe got sent home HAAAHAHAHAHa hahaha haaaaaa.

We had a replay of the old fatness versus the new skinniness with the time capsule video recordings they did so many months ago.
There was also another Contest, pitting the remaining contestants against each other with the loser being sent home…

Tonight we find out who loses the tug-o-war between Sarah and Rebecca to decide last place.
Later the yearly trek into the past begins, with contestants regaining their weightlosses via sandbags as they hike through sand dunes talking about how much they hated being so heavy and they’ll never go back to that, etc etc.

Rebecca dearly wants to win the tug-o-war to stay in the competition. Sarah wants to stay as well but she has a bung hand so she’s not sure she’ll be able to hold on well enough.
Leigh’s thinking Rebecca might have the strength to overcome Sarah. I think Leigh’s living in dream land. Sarah has a massive weight advantage, she ought to win easily.
