Challenge completed,
IDK the makeovers I didn't find too exciting this year. At the weigh-ins the women all look like they are wearing spanx.

I enjoyed the challenge where the families had to participate, although I don't know how even it was. But I guess it didn't matter in the end as the 1 pound advantage wouldn't have made any difference to the 2 under the yellow line.

Sad what some have had to deal with in their past lives

Challenge complete.

I definitely felt the emotions for the first hour during the makeovers. I was expecting two people to go home this week, but was glad to see that it was a two hour special that was focused on just one week, instead of an hour a week. I was glad that the families stayed and did a challenge with the contestants, it gave them a glimpse into a day on the ranch and what their loved ones are going through on the ranch. I was hoping that Felicia would go home, but alas she is still there. She is, in my opinion, the cockiest most self centered person there. I am so ready for the finale now, so that we can see everyone who has gone home. I'm just not ready for this group to be over, because I don't feel that it's been long enough, especially since they've been fast forwarding through the season.

I only watched the first half today, so also did the first half of the commercial challenge. I'll watch and do the rest tomorrow. Makeovers were OK. Obviously, some of them still have a ways to go with weight loss. They all looked pretty good, although some of the wardrobe choices were a bit questionable. I love Tim Gunn, but didn't love all the outfits this year. Helloooo Felicia's boobs! Even Bob Harper had a hard time not staring (and he's gay). She also had a real hard time walking in those heels. LOL

I was a little disappointed in the family challenge. I thought they'd actually have to do some exercise to help with the challenge. Spinning a weight on a post is not exercise and pitting grown-ups against children is not fair by any stretch of the imagination.

There is a lose 1 pound a week group http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/109303-lose-1-pound-a-week-2016 that has a subgroup Biggest Loser Challenge that will be running all year. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10327903/biggest-loser-team-dolvett-vs-team-jen-additions#latest They do weekly challenges for extra motivation. Some a food, some exercise/stretching and some inspiration if you are looking for a group

Finished the show today. Commercial challenge completed.

I was hoping Felicia would go home this week, but Lauren was a close second. Neither of those ladies are endearing whatsoever. Felicia was my least favorite from week 1 and Lauren is a big whiner. They both get an A+ in the "poor, pitiful me club".

Although Colby bugged me a bit in the beginning, I'm now rooting for him big time. He's had one of the roughest obstacles to overcome and yet he has a very positive attitude about life. I also still like Erin, although I don't love her new hairdo as much as Bob Harper. LOL

This season has gone fast! Glad they're all losing weight - too bad I'm not! Ugh.

I got the commercial challenge done. I liked the show this week liked the losses posted this week and really enjoyed the group challenge the way they got the families in

COMMERCIAL CHALLENGE: DONE!

I definitely like the makeover episode It wasn't really as shocking or surprising as previous makeovers but it was made up with a lot of heart and emotion. Tim Gunn was fabulous as always and I love how they made the family members participate as well

To be honest, Erin is starting to work my nerves a little bit. She always talks like she has it altogether and I've never really seen he be vulnerable or emotional. I feel like everyone else I have somewhat of an emotional connection but Erin is showing the same surface I've seen on day 1.

The person I really felt for this week was Stephens and Jacky's daughter. I grew up with obesity all my childhood and I really felt a connection with her and her determination to prove herself
