Previously on The Biggest Loser… Fat people fighting and it ISN’T over food? What the hell, man? Next you’ll be trying to tell me Commando Steve is hot.

After the Elimination Margie copped a lot of flak over her decision to send Selena home after an unprecedented offer from Hayley to not require anyone be sent home.
This is likely to simmer in the background for quite a while to come, unless she’s the next to be sent packing.

The first Contest of the year saw the old bulls of the Black Team walk away with the win sending Shane on… The Walk!
But it’s not The Walk we’re used to seeing with a new underground route to the new-old military bunker looking box selection area. Thing.

Shane was offered a choice between power over food, power over training or power over something mysterious. Shane chose the mystery box because, well, everyone likes a good mystery!

TONIGHT! We find out what the hell was in the box. Just what power will Shane/Black be given? And will it cause them all to be the new demons of the competition…

Also, training on the beach and a new Temptation kicks off. It feels like they’re packing quite a bit into each episode but gee, it’d be nice if they’d start something and resolve it in one episode, wouldn’t it?

Anyway, after all the teaser footage and replayed footage we finally get going. Hurry up, Shane, get back to Loser Lounge and tell us what was in the box!

Previously on The Biggest Loser the contestants weighed in for the first time, trained for the first time and were Temptationed for the first time!
Everyone shared their deepest darkest secrets in the Loser Lounge.

Tonight, MOAR TEMPTATION! More training, too. And Shannan’s going to get stroppy with Hamish.
Also the first Challenge for the year kicks off. With flippers. Oars? It’s on the water.

“You play, you pay.” Shannan’s mantra for Temptations.

As the show picks up we’re back in the Temptation room. The Wheel of Temptation now has 13 wedges of Immunity and 13 of Calorie laden treats!

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.

Previously on The Biggest Loser Lara won at the weekly Challenge and got to see her Mum. Aww!

Then at Elimination Damien was sent home, again, thanks to Joe being an idiot, again!

Tonight Joe’s got to face up to sending Damien home. I’m sure he’ll put on a suitably sad tone of voice which will be quite different to… his usual dull monotone.

Also “Immunity Week” starts with a 24 hour lockdown of some kind.
Tonight is also the first catch up with an eliminated contestant, Sarah-Jayne.

But as we pick up the post-Elimination loungeroom chat, Kellie asks Joe how he’s dealing with Damien being sent home and Joe says he’s very sorry about it.
Sharlene tells us she’s really not sure whether to believe him because Joe obviously doesn’t care about his family.

Sarah says she was sorry to send home Damien but she thinks Damien’s in a good head space right now and he’ll be doing just fine on the outside, he won’t let his kids down.

Joe then tells everyone that he doesn’t care about the game and he doesn’t care if he gets sent home tomorrow or next week, he’s just glad they had the time in the house to rebuild some of the family relationships that their family had struggled with over the years.

Previously on The Biggest Loser everyone had a grump at Joe!

The trainers have set up a Pyramid of Fitness challenge for the contestants, most of which we saw last night, bar the final showdown between Leigh and Joe.

Tonight, the final showdown between Leigh and Joe! Treadmills, ever increasing speeds, putting their stamina to the test. For glory!

Later in the episode is Temptation. Various baked goods including COOKIES!
Then there’s some situps-based Contest? Which I assume we’ll see the start but not the end, leaving us waiting until tomorrow to find out who wins…

As the episode returns to the real action Leigh and Joe are eyeing each other off just before the treadmills get started.
8km/hr to start, if you’ve forgotten. Every minute the speed will increase by 2km/hr. Last man still on the treadmill will be crowned the Ultimate Athlete of Biggest Loser 2011.
