When Vicky didnt listen to Bob and vote out ED ( did anyone else think they edited her writing of the vote? It sure looked like two letters and done!) so I'm done! They could do this show so much better - maybe more like celebrity fit club when there is more about losing, some comps, but no alliances to mess up my enjoyment! Even survivor knows it has to mix it up - the contestants are too into game play now!

LOL at that video Usleopard. I really don't like the blue team but I don't dislike Vicky for playing the game. I do dislike the mean spiritedness though. You can be devious and duplicitous without being mean. Anyway, I may still get my wish if Heba or Ed fall below the line with Vicky. My guess is Vicky is going unless Heba and Ed are hoping for a double play. In which case Vicky had a chance to change her fate tonight and did not. Amy karma. How sweet. I can dream.

If America votes next week, then Michelle stays in the game.

I don't think Vicky is really playing the game now.. she just gave up on the challenge and this is twice she's voted out a person who is less of a threat to her and she's on a "team" of three where she's at the bottom. Heba could have been gone and Ed could now be gone. But no matter, of course she's had Bob in her ears about blue team loyalty. We get to pick third but not sure what the rules will be or who we get to choose from. I'd definitely pay to vote to keep Michelle in.

week 11 Aftermath of booting of Amy: Down to final five.. Ed and Heba, newlyweds who want children. Heba came as heaviset woman, lost 70 lb. Ed lost 82. Renee and Michelle, mother and daughter, hadn't spoken in over 5 years. Renee has lost 68 lb and Michelle has lost 66lb. Vicky, last solo player, down 68lb. 2 more weeks.. grand prize of $250,000. Alli points out that five are left. Tells them to pack bags and head to NYC for whirlwind makeover. They all screech in glee. Michelle is stoked, nothing to do with nature and dirt. They hear about going on the Tyra Banks show. New York City: Riding in limo, happy.. First Stop.. salon.. all say they want color. Heba freaked.. Vicky nervous about red hair. Ed getting highlights.. Michelle shorter. We see them in promo with Christian Soriano and then on Tyra. == Heba barrels toward Christian, who sort of flinches but they hug, with Heba sweeping him off the floor and twirling.. they are at Macy's. LOL.. Renee and Michelle together have lost "an entire Christian". They run to pull outfits on the floor.., bring them to Christian. He tells Heba her choice isn't fabulous, shows her another dress. His choice is a good one.. Heba in tears of joy.. size 14 (she was 24). He says maybe a more wow print in the same shape he chose. Christian tells Michelle the furry jacket is too much, tells Ed he's being too conservative and Vicky that the polka dot dress she brings over is too "Little House on the Prairie". He pulls a different shape for Michelle, gives advice to Ed, tells Vicky jewel tones are fabulous with red hair (she had pulled a red red dress). We see Renee in a red shift and he tells her he has the perfect thing for her. Renee brings a couple of choices and is told to try on a print dress. They talk of how hard it is to like what you see when you are heavy. Christian says he thinks he has one Tyra will love. Christian tells us we need simple but fabulous shoes.. black, sophisticated, maybe a little shine. tyra: "Biggest Makeovers we have ever done.. Tyra, Christian, Tabatha from Shear Genius Season 1 and Tabatha's Salon Takeover is there too. Michelle first, looking good, hair not that different, very nice. Talk about her story. Her father is there, so he runs out.. he's crying, sweet. Next we meet Renee, who did get shorter hair, in a bob, looks super! Misses her husband, his hugs and kisses and there he is!! He's beaming! So cute! Wow.. Vicky has hair galore!! Looks amazing. Misses husband. Tyra asks if she misses her sister and Vicky cries. And of course there is her sister. Here comes Heba, kinda groaning.. in red dress. Looks good, hair a bit shorter. Tyra asks about Heba's brother.. guess who we are about to see? Heba's brother! Heba cries. He cries. (He promised he'd take her on a trip if she lost 60lb) Ed is last.. and he looks like.. Ed. Tyra asks about his dad.. hmmm.. there's Ed's dad. Cute dad, cute accent. Christian tells them they each get a $1,000 Macy's gift card. Ed says they should go to Times Square and "blow it out". They still have their family members with them. LOL.. and on one of the big screens, there is Bob and Jillian, lol. He tells them they should run in Central Park, walk bridges, go to 24 hour fitness.. Jillian agreeing. So next morning they dutifully go to 24 hour fitness. (Maybe just Ed/Heba/Vicky and family?) We see Renee and DH walking the Brooklyn Bridge and then running. (What a cute couple) Michelle asks her dad to race up some outside stairs in Central Park.. She tells us not a great idea to hang with mom and dad right about now. He does ask her how things are with her mom now. She says they are both different people. Dad is happy they are doing it together. (He's such a big sentimental DAD) Ed tells us what a great opportunity it was, Heba agrees. Back in LA.. Jillian meets with Renee and Michelle. She's amazed to see them made over, still in their new dresses, shoes, etc. They've been in NY for three days, Jillian says, with two weigh-ins left. Doesn't care about makeovers, family, just cares that your ASS gets smaller. Michelle and Renee tell us that Jillian has reason to be concerned and they are still the underdogs. We see Vicky working out alone in the gym on an elliptical.. she's worried about the weigh in. Says she needs to work out four hours longer than everyone else and being in NY, wasn't able to do that. She was devastated last week, so needs to kick butt this week. Heba and Ed decide to make dinner for Bob, in a blatent product placment for Jennie-O turkey. Bob smiles, sees them in their makeover outfits (well Heba is in hers.. to cook.. Ed in a different outfit, unshaven. They eat, discuss calories.. Challenge with Alli: Says they need to keep up the pressure. Five booths suspended over the pool water. Heba says maybe they have to hold their breath or fight gravity or something. Job is to wedge self in glass cube suspended 50 feet above the water (sort of like the BB challenge that Sheila won). Hang in as long as you can. Winner wins a two week trip for two to a fitness resort and spa in Utah. All say wow and Vicky tells us she always said if there was ever a spa challenge everybody had better watch out, she's going for that one. So they have on helmets, bare feet and are wedged in. All against the back, none seem to have a corner technique going. Almost immediately, Vicky asks to be disqualified. She sits on the ledge, sitting near Michelle. Heba tells her to stand up and jump! Renee tells her she'll be fine. Vicky whines, says it is 100 feet. She won't jump. Heba says the dye got to her brain, it was like 12 feet. Heba says she's pulling muscles, heaviest girl there, asks Ed if he is ok, he's heaviest here. Heba says Michelle doing this like it is her job. Heba drops. Vicky still sitting above. 18 minutes. Only one way down, Vicky. Ed tells us he's the last up there on the Blue team. Michelle asks Renee how she's doing.. she's cramping up. Ed grunting, Renee groning.. Ed drops. Michelle jokes, no, Mom I will not buy you another designer handbag. Renee asks if she will take her on the trip and drops. Michelle WINS!! She is thrilled. She drops down. Vicky still sits above. Vicky says they will be waiting a very long time. Inexplicably, the entire intro summary for tonight is repeated again.. Michelle says Vicky is still up their stealing my thunder, hello? If you wanted the spa prize should have hung up there longer. The other four are bundled up, wet hair, waiting. Heba says just do it so your kids will not think it is ok to be that scared. Alli tells Vicky to stop using the words "I can't." Ed gets into the pool land swims under her. Heba encourages her, all of them join in.. all the "losers" and Alli.. and finally she slips down to the water and gets even more attention as she shivers. Now she whines to the camera about not wanting to be scared. The others are very gracious. Bob meets with his team and asks about the challenge and hears that Michelle won. Vicky tells of her fears. Says she isn't afraid of heights. Not sure why.. tells about Ed helping her. Bob says it is all about trust. Tells her she has to learn to trust herself. She cries. (ACK, I sure hope this isn't a turn in the editing so we will be okay with her winning) Promo says Shocking weigh-in that will break up one of these families, or.. send a game player home. Last Chance workouts And we see them.. Bob says sweat sweat sweat.. Vicky wants Bob to push her and she's not ready to go home. He works with Ed.. Ed says have to sweat. Heba pressing too. Still biggest girl in the house, need biggest number. I'm here to win. Bob is riding a bike along with them. His job to take care of blue team. Jillian working with Michelle and Renee. Michelle says last week was an eye-opener for blue. Jillian says time to remove body parts. They got hair cut, maybe half a pound.. I'll take anything, toes.. Weigh-in: Renee knows if they don't stay above yellow line one of them will be gone. Wants to be in final mother doaughter. Alli says 5 of you only two weigh ins from finale. Two families defied the odds and stayed together, one is last solo player. Weigh in as individuals, two lowest % below yellow line. Vicky up first, loses 4 pounds, 2.22%. Hopes it is enough. Renee up next, says she weighs more than Vicky, needs to lose more lb to be ahead of her. Loses 4 pounds. Vicky smiles. Jillian says normally that is great.. lost 8 lb the last two weeks, but not enough. 2.01%. Michelle needs to have lost more than 3 pounds to be safe this week. Michelle is nervous, lost 10 pounds last week, difficult this week. Michelle loses 5 pounds, 2.84% Ed is up next. Needs to have lost more than 5 pounds to be safe this week. He loses 3 pounds. Bob thinks Ed will go home. 1.19% Heba last to go up. Has to have lost more than 4 pounds to be safe from elimination. Jillian says this is it.. if Heba falls below, both of my girls are safe but if she falls above the line, blue team has the votes. Heba loses 7 pounds, is safe.. she celebrates, Bob, Vicky and Ed all clap.. 3.13%, from the bottom to the top.
Person | Original Wt | Previous Wt | Current Wt | Loss | Total Loss | % | Vicky | 246 | 180 | 176 | -4 | -70 | 2.22 | Renee | 267 | 199 | 195 | -4 | -72 | 2.01 | Michelle | 242 | 176 | 171 | -5 | 71 | 2.84 | Ed | 334 | 253 | 250 | -3 | -85 | 1.19 | Heba | 294 | 224 | 217 | -7 | -77 | 3.13 | |
Rank | Name | % | 1 | Heba | 3.13 | 2 | Michelle | 2.84 | 3 | Vicky | 2.22 | = | ======== | ==== | 4 | Renee | 2.01 | 5 | Ed | 1.19 | | Ed and Renee up for elimination. Bob tells us it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that Renee will go home; they have the votes, but Vicky could pull a fast one on the blue team. Michelle hates the idea of being left alone without her mom. Renee tearing up. Doesn't want this dream to end tonight. Alli points out that one family will be split up. Voting/Elimination They go to the elimination room. We go to commercial. Ed tells us that Vicky knows the game; he's pretty freaked out about eliminations.. I'm a bigger threat than Renee. I've had the unfortunate luck of going home once before (that wasn't luck it was strictly weight that time). Renee thinks she could go home but thinks this is Vicky's chance to vote Ed off, all girl final four. (ed. I'm not counting on it) Ed and Renee get a minute each to plead their case. Ed says he fought really hard to get back to the ranch. He and Heba have always been together every single day since they met. Important to be here with her, be a support system for her. Renee.. says this has been the journey of a lifetime for her and Michelle, would like to finish together. Michelle goes to vote, hoping that Vicky remembers Ed is a huge threat. Heba is nervous but thinks Vicky.. can I trust her? Vicky says she is really unsure.. heart is with blue, but Ed is a big threat in this game. .. I have to trust myself (hard to say, looks like a short word, but..) Michelle says cool to have an all woman final.. votes for Ed. Heba votes for Renee. Felt Ed was "robbed" before. Vicky.. deciding vote. Says hard to act like she wasn't sure, then say a few words.. Commercial.. Vicky votes for Renee (no surprise .. ) Vicky says nice stuff about Renee. Says how great she is with her husband (as if that makes it better). Renee says they were more strangers than mother and daughter. This has been a dream come true, many prayers answered,, above and beyond what I could have expected. No price tag. Learned to trust and love each other. Not Biggest Loser, but feel like Biggest Winner. Michelle tells her mom they have grown into a new relationship, very proud of her, truly blessed. Renee tells Michelle how much she loves her and how proud she is of her. Win this for you. Renee is eliminated 93 days comes down to one final weigh in. give it everything you have. At Home Renee feels like most blessed woman on earth. Believes in herself now. Hard to leave Michelle. Next time you see me, I'm not going to look like Michelle's mom, but her younger sister. We see her in Texas, in a great black dress, at her church.. friends/family inside.. big group. The pastor announces Renee. We see her husband and other two daughters. Crowd roars, daughters crying.. Renee gives great speech.. love never fails. She's lost 95 pounds now! Has been public speaking now. And leads a fitness group at work. Went from size 22 to 8, hopes to wear a 6 to the final. Next Tuesday.. only one black team member standing, will it be all blue at the end.. Twist.. America will decide who will be the third and final player.

It's 5 in the morning and I am watching the show while the family sleeps, I just love being an insomniac, NOT! As much as I can't stand Vicky, I felt for her having to do that jump. I am not afraid of heights but am terrified of falling and I could NOT have made myself jump.

I was really annoyed how Bob brought up AGAIN that Amy turned on Brady and voted him out. Get over it dude! It seems like he forgot they are all there to lose weight too. I thought Vicky's make up was too pale too. I think Renee & Michelle are just gorgeous! I also loved the names of Renee's other daughters (Dante was going to be Mia..lol)

In the previews for next week it looks like Jillian is happy at the weigh-in which gives me hope that Michelle is above the yellow line!

Thanks for doing the show summaries for us, Seamonkey. I'm glad they finally used that nice pool for something. I was beginning to wonder if it was a swimming pool, or a decorative pool. Someone please help me out - who is Christian Soriano?

Remember the "pride on 3" men who just voted the person who lost the least- no plotting. Ed would be gone. Was Vicky really afraid or just wanting camera time.

My bet is on CAMERA TIME .. each and every time she makes it about her! .. "I'm just going to say who and then I'll say a few words..." .. Her mistakeover wasn't good at all! They didn't cut her hair (anyone think that she refused?) .. they over tweezed her eyebrows ... and that make-up? Everyone else looked normal! She looked like she had on 15 layers!

Did anyone see Allison on Ellen today? During the interview Ellen told her she had a surprise for her after the commercial, then when the show came back Allison was sitting there clearing having labor pains and Ellen quickly cut to another segment. She never mentioned Allison the rest of the show. Hope she's ok!!

Piper - I just watched Ellen on the west coast. That was a total setup between Allison and Ellen to allow Ellen the fun intro to her "12 Days" Christmas giveaway. She actually stepped over Allison, who was breathing deeply, to meet the dancing mug of hot whatever and all the gifts being wheeled out on the stage. LOL, all in good fun.
