The Biggest Loser Season 13 Week 8

The seventh week of the biggest loser season 13 had a higher notch of drama and challenges than its previous one. There were two main challenges in this week’s show which added the required spice. The first one was a temptation challenge thrown by the biggest loser host, Alison Sweeney after she unexpectedly entered the ranch. She brought a rotating table with all the favorite foods of the contestants and declared that whoever has the most number of calories would be the winner and would get a chance to make changes in both the teams anonymously. This came as a shocker to all the contestants and every contestant was given three minutes time in the temptation room to gorge on their favorite foods.
Daphne was the person to gorge upon her favorite peanut butter cups and win the temptation round by consuming about 1890 calories. She made the decision to shift her rival Conda to Bob Harper’s Black Team and her brother Jeremy to Dolvett’s red team, this decision made Jeremy furious and all the other contestants instantly knew that Daphne must have been behind this decision. This is followed by high drama and tension among the team members. However, even when confronted directly Daphne chooses to remain mum and denies everything.

Meanwhile, the biggest loser trainers Bop Harper and Dolvett Quince chalk out the biggest loser workout and the biggest loser diet which both the new members in their teams find it difficult to cope with. Bob keeps advising Daphne to come out clean in order to avoid elimination; though she refuses it first eventually accepts the truth in front of everyone though no one is surprised by this declaration.

Then, a giant puzzle on eight foot tall blocks had to be solved by both the teams. Red team members do it swiftly while the black team members are nowhere near solving the puzzle. Each of the winners gets a two week stay at the biggest loser resort after they leave the ranch.
The main highlight of the show was the plan by the black team members to lose the weigh-in and then vote out Daphne from the show. They stuff themselves with carbs and eventually lose the weigh-in. They vote out Daphne who leaves after a high emotional altercation with her long time rival Conda. Daphne has lost 71 pounds after coming to the ranch and now weighs 200 pounds. She says she is happy to be back with her family.

Look out for more drama and challenges in the next episode.

  1. There's not really anyone likable on this show right now. I did like the aqua team for their resolve to always stand up for themselves and Cassandra was ok... until today! The way they tried to show of her writing talent by reading her diary entry? Any monkey with a type writer can type a diary entry! With all the drama and disgust going on in this show it’s painfully addictive to watch, but I just can’t stop doing it. I didn’t get a chance to watch this episode when it aired on TV, so it’s nice to know that when I miss any episodes of The Biggest Loser, I can always catch up on them at DISHOnline (that’s where I watched this one). One of the many benefits of being a DISH customer (or non-customer) and employee like me is that anyone can have access to DISHOnline, where you have access to a whole library of movies and TV shows for free.
