Rob and then Luis were eliminated in The Biggest Loser Season 17 Episode 5.
They have made it far enough to get to makeover week. It looks like we have a proper full length episode of sorts, albeit with a lot of filler.
Once they are done being made over, they return to the ranch with their families. The family members participate in the challenge, unscrewing weights that the contestants will run back to the other side of the field before ultimately dragging them back. Reward is a trip to The Biggest Loser Resort and a 1 pound advantage. It’s good that the little kids can participate, but it’s not very practical. That gives the edge to Erin, Felicia, and Roberto. Erin retains her lead throughout to win the challenge.
Erin: 182 pounds (-6, -1, 3.72%)
Lauren: 179 pounds (-5, 2.72%)
Felicia: 183 pounds (-2, 1.08%)
Stephen: 228 pounds (-10, 4.20%)
Jacky: 229 pounds (-9, 3.78%)
Roberto: 250 pounds (-9, 3.47%)
Colby: 249 pounds (-9, 3.49%)
Lauren and Felicia have fallen below the yellow line. Lauren put up a very competent number, but it was not enough. I’m not sure it matters either way, but the drama starts up again when someone dismisses Felicia as being weaker.
