Biggest Loser 9: Episode 911 Recap

(Original Air Date 3/30/2010)

The show opens with an announcement from Alison to the TV viewer that tonight brings with it an event that is new to the show. We will meet Wayne who weighed in at 674 lbs 2 yrs ago. He has lost more weight than anyone on the Biggest Loser and tonight he will weigh-in live.

Alison then announces to the contestants that they will now be playing as singles.

THEN – curtain raises…one of the previously eliminated contestants is coming back.

They will all weigh-in BUT the contestant coming back to the ranch will be voted in by the current contestants.

Previously Eliminated Contestant Weigh-in (For Fun): (start weight, lbs lost to date)
Darell: 413 lbs, -104 lost
Sherry: 218 lbs, -62 lost
Miggy: 240 lbs, -49 lost
Victoria: 358 lbs, -73 lost
Melissa: 233 lbs, -51 lost
Lance: 365 lbs, -91 lost
Cheryl: 227 lbs, -51 lost
John: 484 lbs, -85 lost
Patty: 243 lbs, -46 lost
Maria: 281 lbs, -57 lost
James: 484 lbs, -72 lost
Cherita: 277 lbs, -47 lost

The vote comes down to a tie between John and Victoria with Victoria winning! YAY!

Surprise! There is one more chance to come back and it involves a challenge – not that’s more like it! 😉

Up/Down Challenge for Previously Eliminated Contestants

The first play to do 1000 steps onto their block will win the challenge and return to the ranch.

OF COURSE Melissa wins this one! Rats! No one is particularly happy about it!

Victoria and Melissa are both granted automatic immunity for their first week back at the ranch.

Bob and Jillian meet up with the contestants and learn of new singles playing status AND greet the returning contestants. Singles = Game on!

They both seem very happy to see that Victoria has another chance at the ranch.

Let’s get this party started and workout with Bob and Jillian! Welcome back ladies!

Contestants get a bit into the game and start second guessing relationships and loyalty.

Last Chance Workout:

Grueling per normal! Bob works with O’Neil on taking the stairs…determined to see him conquer this demon!

Jillian follows Stephanie outside after she blows up in frustration during the workout. They talk about how she has a need to fill in control.

THEN Ashley confronts Stephanie saying that she feels that she can not trust her because she feels that she may have thrown the weigh-in when Ashley’s mom went home. Drama!

Weigh-In Results: (pounds lost this week, total lbs lost to date, current weight)

Victoria – 2 lbs, 75 lbs total, 283 lbs
Melissa – 4 lbs, 55 lbs total, 178 lbs
