Black team dominated face off week in The Biggest Loser Season 13 Episode 3, sending Lauren packing.
This week’s excuse is not having a gym. For the team that loses this challenge, they will not have access to the gym this week.
They will have to answer a series of questions. For each one they get right, they can go through the door. For each one they get wrong, they’ll have to climb through an obstacle. Buddy is at home expecting the birth of his child. Gail will also sit out for the black team. This marks Nancy’s first challenge.
Which common vegetable is a very good source of vitamin C? Cauliflower or carrots.
Cauliflower. The incorrect answer leads the black team through the mud pit.
If you are using a tablespoon of oil to cook with, which is the worst for you? Peanut oil or vegetable oil.
Vegetable oil. Black team again heads into the mud.
What food builds the most muscle? Chicken or fish.
Fish. Both teams end up in the mud.
Which contains the most antioxidants? Pinto beans or blackberries.
Pinto beans. Again both teams are wrong.
Which of these foods contain the most protein? 4 hard boiled eggs or 1 cup of 1% lowfat cottage cheese.
Cottage cheese. Both teams are wrong for the third time.
Having turned in a less than stellar performance, the red team still wins the challenge over the black team, which got every question wrong.
Chris has decided she doesn’t want to be here any more, and she locks herself in the bathroom. Not another one. For the time being, Bob is able to talk some sense into her.
Without access to a gym, Bob’s going to have to get creative so his team can get their workouts. They head outdoors and tell us how cold it is. In California.
Nancy has a question for Dolvett. Have you ever given birth? His frustration with her is just the start. Conda hates him. Like she hates everybody else. She serves as nothing but a distraction, which is why I don’t understand their logic for keeping her last week. He shows her the door. As for Bob, he continues to struggle with Gail.
Apparently it’s going to take an hour and a half to tell us that the state of the union is as bad as it was last year, so we’re greeted by a very prompt end to tonight’s show, with the weigh in starting at the 35 minute mark. Buddy returns in time to hit the scales.

Lack of access to the gym leads to Bob’s team losing. As The Biggest Loser for her team this week, Emily is safe. It’s a battle between the person who seems the least dedicated versus the person who threatened to quit.

With 4 votes, Gail is not The Biggest Loser, joining her daughter Lauren after last week’s elimination. Upon her return home, she ends up with tendinitis in her hip, but that just means she’ll have to spend more time in the pool. Her goal is just to hear Bob say “You did it.”
