The Biggest Loser Season 16 Episode 8

Jackie fell below the red line and was eliminated in The Biggest Loser Season 16 Episode 7.

One player from each team will run on a treadmill. Once they stop running, they will go into the water. As they continue, the speed will increase every 5 minutes. Damien, Rondalee, and Scott will run for their teams. Rondalee’s pretty sure she can hang with the football players, but this time she cannot. Scott ends up beating Damien, and the red team finally wins a challenge.

Now they can assign penalties. One team will have to clean the house and cannot go to the gym until they are finished. The other team will go to Las Vegas for the week. Only on this show is that a punishment. The red team gives the trip to Vegas to the white team to try to knock them off their winning pedestal, while the blue team will clean.

When they arrive, they are immediately greeted by temptation in the form of chocolate covered strawberries and champagne, but they resist. Of course, it doesn’t end there. Their first stop is a buffet. They are pretty good. Then they go to a club. The women are confident, but they are concerned about the guys, who are clearly not entirely opposed to indulging at least a little. In the end, everybody does seem to mostly behave, though it appears there is more interest in partying than exercise.

Now we head to Comeback Canyon for the second chance weigh in.

Jackie: 249 pounds (-3, 1.19%)
Gina: 202 pounds (-2, 0.98%)

Two lackluster numbers, but Jackie’s 3 pound weight loss for the second week in a row is enough to save her.

Rob: 387 pounds (-9, 2.27%)
Jordan: 253 pounds (-6, 2.32%)
Scott: 283 pounds (-5, 1.74%)
Blake: 196 pounds (-3, 1.51%)
Red Total: 1119 pounds (-23, 2.01%)

Rondalee: 231 pounds (-3, 1.28%)
JJ: 321 pounds (-7, 2.13%)
Sonya: 215 pounds (-6, 2.71%)
Toma: 263 pounds (-8, 2.95%)
Woody: 335 pounds (-7, 2.05%)
White Total: 1365 pounds (-31, 2.22%)

Lori: 255 pounds (-5, 1.16%)
Damien: 317 pounds (-9, 2.76%)
Blue Total: 572 pounds (-12, 2.05%)

Once again, the two punished teams outperformed the not punished team, and the one with the worse punishment did the best. As the smallest loser on the losing team, Blake has fallen below the red line.

From her starting weight of 242 pounds, Gina is down 65 pounds to 177 today.
