The Biggest Loser - Season 14 (2013)

The trainers will return to the ranch in time for the last chance workout. The three trainers want to inspire their child ambassador by choosing an activity that they will deem fun, to check to see if they are following the nutrition rules told to them by Dr. Joanna, and to uncover the emotional...

Pam's elimination at the latest weigh-in raises issues for all three teams for this upcoming week. If the white team loses the next weigh-in, not only will their one and only remaining team member, Danni, leave the ranch, but her trainer, Jillian, will as well. The red team, who has won three of four weigh-ins thus far, feels like a target is on their backs. And the blue team, the only one with a still full complement of five members, believes the percentages are not in their favor this week. Never having faced an elimination yet, that fear of losing the weigh-in ...

The elimination of Lisa at the latest weigh-in marks the half way point for this season's competition. In this week's theme of leading by example, the remaining contestants learn that only one person's weight from each team will count at this week's weigh-in, with those three literally chosen by a roll of the dice immediately preceding the weigh-in. This news leads to a "clearing of the air" between some of the trainers and their team members who are scared to be one of the chosen. The trainers want their team members to embrace being chosen. The contestants soon ...

After David is eliminated at the latest weigh-in, Alison tells the remaining contestants that the teams are being disbanded and they are now playing as individuals. It's Valentine's week, and their temptation challenge is something they may face on Valentine's: cupcakes and other such baked goods.

Jillian in particular chastises those ...

Michael's elimination at the latest weigh-in has put some people on the defensive in how the vote went down. The remaining contestants learn that they will will have to work together as one cohesive unit this week as Alison tells them that if they as a collective can lose 70 pounds this week, they will all be provided immunity from elimination at that weigh-in. They are provided two opportunities to lower that 70 pound amount. The first, which potentially could drop that number by up to 10 pounds, is through a pop challenge on nutrition knowledge and surpassing ...

In Face Your Fears week, Francelina, the latest eliminated contestant, is not the only person leaving the ranch. The loser of the latest pop challenge, success in which is dependent upon help from the other contestants, will also face one of his/her biggest fears: leaving the ranch, if only for the week, to live life without the gym, the trainers and a properly stocked kitchen. That pop challenge loser will also bring with him/her one other contestant of his/her choice. Conversely, the pop challenge winner receives a one pound advantage at the weigh-in. This challenge...

There are five contestants remaining after the elimination of Alex, those five who are going into makeover week. Fashion stylist Tim Gunn and hair stylist Ken Paves are not only making over the five, but also the three childhood obesity ambassadors. All eight get to share the experience with their family and friends at home, where they will spend the next two weeks. There, they are given two challenges. The first is to pay it forward by leading a group fitness session. The second is a personal mission to lose at least five percent of their body weight within that two weeks, which ...

The joy the final five feel at the latest weigh-in by all making it past that weigh-in is slightly deflated by the news that at the next weigh-in, the penultimate, there will be a red line, the contestant falling below that being automatically eliminated, and a yellow line, the two contestants falling below that being possibly eliminated from the competition based on a public vote leading to the finale. That means that the top two for the week automatically make it into the final three, with the winner of the public vote being the third finalist. The childhood obesity...
