Pretty much nothing happened in The Biggest Loser Season 13 Episode 14. Tonight, something will happen. Probably. Welcome to your new abridged 50/50 split The Biggest Loser.
We start off with a meet and greet with a woman who lives in a large white house. Michelle Obama talks about her initiative to fight childhood obesity, Let’s Move. Then she changes into her workout clothes and gets grilled by the trainers. I assume the Secret Service is also working out in the background, while wearing suits and dark glasses.
Before they go, the contestants receive a challenge. They are to get people to sign up for a healthy lifestyle program under their names at NBC.com. Whoever is the most popular will win the reward of a gym being built in their community.
Chris calls Roy, who tells her to come home. Selfish. Not that I get the sense she’s entirely opposed to it, and to be fair, she posed the question whether he wants her to come home or not. Her preferred method of dealing with this: find thousands of calories and eat, eat, eat. A burger, a couple sandwiches, a king size chocolate bar, a jar of peanutbutter… the parade comes to an end eventually I think. A little bit of cheating is understandable, but this is just a case of not caring.
Bob tells her she needs to make a decision. Either she continues to work on herself here, or she goes back and returns to being miserable Chris.
Heading into the weigh in, there are two people who were impacted by the challenge. Conda has a 1 pound disadvantage; Buddy has a 1 pound advantage.
Buddy: 260 pounds (-9, -1, 3.72%)
Kim: 162 pounds (-2, 1.22%)
Jeremy: 249 pounds (-11, 4.23%)
Conda: 205 pounds (-5, +1, 1.90%)
Mark: 196 pounds (-4, 2.00%)
Chris: 172 pounds (+2, 1.18%)
Following her binge eating, Chris gains weight and falls below the yellow line. Bob hopes she at least learned a lesson from this mistake. She is joined in the danger zone by Kim, the biggest threat at one time but seemingly closing in on her end goal.
Votes
Conda: Chris
Buddy: Chris
With 2 votes, Chris is not The Biggest Loser, as they choose to send her home like she wanted. From her starting weight of 240 pounds, Chris is down to 156 pounds today.
