Folks, I think MTW did a great job last week! I am going to follow his lead and NOT make fun of the contestants. I just can’t make fun of them, I am actually rooting for them! I hope everyone that gets booted keeps up the diet and continues to lose weight!
In the very first scene, we get to see the blue team leaving the room after the first boot. They are really sad and realize it is going to be harder as they get to know each other. Andrea and Gary are talking about how they must go on. The red team approaches and Ryan says that it took them forever and wanted to know what happened. Gary gets very offensive and says the “F” word. Ryan realizes he has opened his mouth and he shouldn’t.
Bob the trainer for the blue team gives them a pep talk and the workouts begin. They are walking through the woods as he tells them to speed up a little!
Lisa from the red team says that Jillian (the trainer) told them that the first week would be the worst. However, we see the militant putting them through hell! Jillian tells the red team that they worked out harder than the blue team and that is why they lost 10 more pounds. In confessional, Jillian says that Dave is not pulling his weight and that he is slacking! She has a little talk with him...let’s see if it works!
Lunch time and the table is set with Subway wraps and all the veggies. The rest of the food was bread, mashed potatoes, and potato salad. Maurcie decides to go with the beef brisket! Not a good choice Mo! Then Maurice says in a confessional that he feels he stayed in the parameters of his diet!

Both teams arrive for the second challenge...an OLD FASHION BAKE SALE! Both teams will cook for 2 hours and then move over to Universal City and sell what they have made. Since the teams are uneven, the team with the most sale dollars will get to chose the weight loss of the person to exclude from red team and a trip to the spa!
The red team seems to be very structured with given tasks. They are making fudge, cookies, cupcakes and all types of sugary goodies! Cooking time is up and it is time to sell their wares. They get 20 minutes to sell their products. The red team is shown to be very successful! However, the blue team is selling brownies for $20 EACH!
They all gather for the results and are told that the first team to take a lick, bite or taste while making the goodies will lose 50% of the dollars they just made! No one licked, bit or tasted! GREAT JOB GUYS! Blue team made $245 and the red team made $362! So, the red team gets to chose the person to sit out at the weight in and a trip to the spa.
The blue team is shown going through a drilling exercise routine while the red team is at the spa! There are lots of grunts, groans and complaints and with every complaint comes an increase in the reps they have to do! At the end of this hard workout, Maurice says, “can we eat now?” I am sorry to chuckle at this but why in the world did NBC include this? I wish it had been edited out!
Everyone is talking about the weight loss of last week and how it compares to this week. Everyone sounds very confident in their weight loss this week
