The Biggest Losers face a big temptation. The winner will pick teams, Blue vs. Black and they’ll pick their trainers. They just have to eat the most calories and they win control of the game. They have 10 minutes to munch on baked goods, donuts, bagels, cookies, oh my. There is one catch, the players are in the dark so they can’t see who eats what. Heba offers to take a donut for the team, but Amy and Shellay aren’t happy with just keeping things the way they are. While everyone is debating what to do, Phil snuck in a peanut butter cup.

Heba went ahead and ate a donut. The paper on the peanut butter cup gave Phil away and Heba demanded to know if he was eating. He couldn’t answer her though because his mouth was full of peanut butter.

At the last moment Amy C. wolfed down a brownie and Heba ate another donut. Heba won the temptation and she’s got a score to settle with Phil and Amy. She split up Phil and Amy and kept her BFF’s Vicky and Brady.

Bob is baffled when he sees the new team. He’s pissed that she made it personal and got rid of one of the boys. Bob took Amy aside and gave her chance to vent. Jillian was happy to see the split, because the teams are evenly split now.

Michelle is just a puddle of emotions and conflicts. She’s contemplating leaving the game because she’s afraid that if she gets close to her mom it’s a betrayal to her dad. Jillian puts her on the phone with her dad, to give her the encouragement to keep going. She needed to hear him say that it is ok to love her mom.

The next morning (5:55 to be exact) the players face a 14 hour challenge. The team has the entire day to climb a mountain as many times as possible. When they get to the top, they take a photo and each person in the photo is worth a point. If all five team mates are in the photo, they get an extra point. Same deal at the bottom of the hill. Whichever team earns the most points will win a 2 pound pass.

The Black Team decided to work together and earn an extra point each trip. The Blue Team couldn’t do that because Vicky couldn’t keep up. They split up and Brady tried to earn extra points to make up for the bonus tams the Black Team earned. By midday it was 110 degrees and the players were melting on the mountainside.

Amy P negotiated a break with the Black Team before they all had heat stroke. The Black Team went home to take a nap, but Shellay and Coleen couldn’t sleep because they were too worried they were behind. They contemplated sneaking in a few a laps, but opted to snooze instead.

Brady worked his butt off to make up for Vicky. He should lose 8000 pounds this week. The Black Team even ran it in for the last photo. In 14 hours the group walked over 160 miles. One team walked 81 miles and the other team walked 79 miles. In the end it came down to the number of points and the Black Team won because they stuck together. Brady ran over 20 miles during the course of the day.

At the weigh in, Michelle is given the option of going home but she’s decided to stick it out.

The Black Team steps up to the scale
Michelle lost 7 pounds.
Renee lost 6 pounds
Phil lost 8 pounds. How do you like him now Heba?
Coleen lost 5 pounds. That’s quite a bit since she’s the smallest girl on the team. She’s 187 now.
Shellay lost 5 pounds too.

The kicked butt. Add on the 2 pounds and they’ve lost 2.84%. The Blue Team needs to lose 33 pounds. Heck Brady may have lost that on his own.

The Blue Team weighed in
Amy lost 9 pounds. Just enough to get under 200 pounds.
Vicky lost 6 pounds
Brady lost 6 pounds - eh’ just ok, considering how hard he’s worked. He’ll probably lose a ton next week.
Amy lost 6 pounds
Heba lost 8 pounds - Unbelievable! That’s the second week in a row that she’s lost 8 pounds.

The Black Team have a hard choice ahead of them. Phil is the outsider, but they need a guy on their side. In the end they decided it was Shellay’s time to go.
