Feeling Blue- The blue team snatches defeat from the Jaws of Victory again!

Man, it feels odd to be talking BL again so quick. See what happens when you don’t update?

Ugh. Last night’s Biggest Loser weigh in was like winning $50 on a scratch off and getting kicked in the nuts in the parking lot of the 7-11 on the way back home. The contestants had gone home, and then weighed in when they got back, after 1 last chance workout.

No surprise, Mike pulled 7 pounds. I tell you, he’s a machine. The look on his face was priceless. Tara only pulled 2, and Jillian told her she’s over training and her body is freaking out. “Trust me,” she said to her “I’m kinda good at my job!” I felt bad because either she or Kristin will be the first woman to lose 100 pounds on campus.

Sadly Kristin gained a pound being home. This was one of the things that killed the blue team again, along with Kristin’s mom only losing two. They lost the weigh in, despite the bigger numbers of Ron and Aubrey.

Ron, Big Ron, the man who just could not pull big numbers to save his life to start, banged out 11 pounds to beat Mike for the first time. It was pretty emotional. He’s lost over 100 pounds, and he’s got potential to be a threat. He won’t win the whole show, but he’ll be able to run some interference to keep Mike in the game for as long as possible. All was looking great.

Then, Krisitn went up one and and her mom, Cathy, who lost 2, basically sunk the team. Cathy took the bullet this time, to keep Krista there, because she is not ready to be home that was obvious. I don’t know if it was just being away from the gym and Kristin’s body still needs that in order to make the weight loss happen or what, but she needs to stay.

I like the blue team, and I wish they’d catch a break.
