ONE CONTESTANT BREAKS RECORD AT WEIGH-IN -- This week, contestants put their food knowledge to the test during a calorie quiz that will give the winning team a dramatic advantage in the challenge. Later, emotions run high when one contestant confronts another on the opposing team before the challenge, which leaves the players soaring to new heights. Then one contestant stuns everyone with a record-breaking weigh-in before an elimination round sends another contestant home.

I wonder if the confrontation is Heba and Phil.

Week seven of The Biggest Loser finds not one but two men at the ranch grieving the absence of Amy Parham, last week's eliminated player.

Both Amy's husband Phillip and trainer Bob Harper struggle with the idea that the Blue Team eliminated Amy to make Phillip suffer for his quarrels with Heba. "My heart is broken," Bob says. He begins to have suspicions about his Blue Team's tactics. Did they manipulate the weigh-in? Who is playing games? Bob's biggest question: Why did a big guy like Brady lose so few pounds?

Then, instead of a temptation, the contestants compete in a game based on special guest Men's Health Editor-in-Chief David Zinczenko's bestselling book, Eat This, Not That, and the winning prize is a big one, 40 pounds to be exact, that will affect the next physical challenge. Find out more about Eat This, Not That.

Phillip realizes his troubles with the Blue Team have only just begun when they confront him while he's eating dinner with the Black Team. Heba angrily chastises Phillip for badmouthing her to Brady and Vicky. Poor Phil! Will he be able to focus now that he is openly the Blue Team's number-one enemy? Or will he see his wife's prophecy, that her elimination will only "fuel" him, come true?

The physical challenge finds both teams sky-high in a daredevil competition (pictured) that has them harnessed together and using all their muscle to stay there. Coleen's fear of heights kicks in, but the prize should be too great to immobilize her: the winning team will be able to "remove" a member of the opposing team from counting at the weigh-in, cancelling out his or her pounds toward that team's final score.

Just when you think the drama can't get more intense, this week's weigh-in makes Biggest Loser history.


OOOH LORD, not another week like last week

GO BOB!!!! I'm so glad he called Vicky out on her game playing. She has been scheming with Heba and Brady from the beginning and I hope they get what they deserve soon!

I loved it when Vicky sshed Brady, when he was telling the team how he was trying to trick Phil


Darn, I had those books in my hand and put them back, Eat This, Not That....he has several of these books out.

Yeah, Heba's a real quality person in comparison to Phil. Must everyone be reminded of the first elimination when Phil had to ask Brady why he was so angry and being so volatile? Phil is a calm guy, a nice guy - Heba and some of the others are drama queens/kings. The people on the black team and Amy C. are bigger people and I hope they come out on top!

All of the couples know each other and for the most part like each other. Why do they continue to have couple shows when only one can win? If they are calling it couples they should win as couples. I wouldn't have a problem splitting $250K. The game is called The Biggest Loser not "lets see how many people we can stab in the back now that we are not coupled together". It is an unfair advantage and the show should be about losing weight and not about game play.

Heba and Vicky are the biggest drama queens ever...its like high school

Hope Hebba goes home!! Bringing down the whole show. You took the words right out of my mouth "just like high school". she needs to get over herself.

I remember when this show used to be about losing weight. This year, especially these last 2 episodes, have been about contestants being ugly and hateful towards each other and all I can think is what a waste of resources on people at the ranch who aren't focused. Or better yet if they are so easily sidetracked by petty games how will they stay focused when the show is over and they have to maintain the weight lose. For those that remain on the ranch I would love to see where they are in 3 years, because I think many will gain it back. You can see how a lot of these people gained weight in the first place...they are completely controlled by others or their own insecurity. I wonder how much they could actually lose if they grew up and stopped playing games.

I think Heba needs to go - she is a total hypocrite! She tells Phil that she "forgives him" but never even cares to hear exactly what he said. She claims to be over it, but she is the one that approaches the Black team while they are trying to have dinner! She wanted everything done on her terms. She needs to go!

I agree, Heba and Vicky are acting like teenagers. They are by far the ugliest (acting) people that have EVER been on this show and I hope they both get voted off soon. (As well as Brady). Vicky needs to be more worried about her morbidly obese daughter that is going to be made fun of her whole life rather than winning money.

Wow, I didn't think my comment was vile or hateful. I even wondered if the editing of the show was making Heba look worse. Yet it was deleted. This must be the first time I've ever had a post deleted ever. I'm pretty tame. A comment that was about the same as mine was left in place.

I couldn't agree more. I am so tired of Vicky, Brady and Heba...they make the show not fun to watch anymore. These 3 people need to grow up and realize why they are here in the first place. Go Black Team and Amy C!!!!

Calling someone evil and spiteful is not allowed, Please read the FAQ and Rules

I couldn't more with you guys I am so tired of this game play!!!!

i still would take heba over vicky..she is more about game playing and control than losing weight...i still cant get past last week when seeing her children "wasn't a good prize" for winning the challenge...who says their kids are not a big deal

I cannot take the Blue Team much longer. This is actually the first season that I do not care for an entire team. I really think they need to mix things up to take control away from the Blue Team. Heba, Vicky and her husband have got to be three of the hardest people to like that I have ever seen on a reality show.

I too am glad that Bob called them out but you can clearly tell they were lying. I am SO sick of the blue team. Vicky LOVES the drama doesnt she? And Heba WOW.. TOO much to even say about her.

Be patient and who knows, your wish may come true!

i know it is a game but we don't need to be mean and back stabbing vicky is not doing nothing for her team.vicky and heba need to go home

I missed last week.. Are you saying that Vicky said that seeing her kids wasnt a GOOD PRIZE? WOW, that makes me dislike her WAY more then ever, and I really never liked her at all to begin with. She needs to go, and I sure the heck hopes it TONIGHT but I dont think so.

Ditto That! She was "embarrassed for Phil" we will see who is embarrassed now.

Who do you think will be sent home?

Hopefully Heba or Vicky...

I sure hope the blue team gets screwed by picking Michelle for the person whos wt wont count this week and LOW and behold she only LOST 2 lbs.. KARMA

let's remember that vicky CHOSE to make her daughter morbidly obese and then chose that seeing her wasn't a reward...dont even get me started on people who play the innocent victim card with the i have no idea how my child is fat...last time i checked 9 year olds in america didn't grocery shop and cook for a family...remember vicky can play these games on the show but in the real world in the south a wife who weighs more than her husband will have a cross to bear that makes the last chance workout look like a day at the spa

I still can't believe Vicky's comment from last week regarding the prize for winning the challenge; she stated that she did not feel the prize of a video from home was a big deal so she didn't try all that hard to win (Bob had to call her on that). What mom wouldn't want to see a video of her children when she has been away from them for a period of time, kind of shows what kind of person/mom she is. In one episode she states shes there for the money, in the next she states its for weight lost. And Brady wanting to be the "Rooster" of the coop? Oh come on!!! Both Heba and Vicky have made the show unpleasant to watch. I know first-hand that weight lost is hard, and with people like them around it would be even harder. I wonder what Heba, Vicky & Brady are thinking? Does Heba really think the other 2 won't turn on her?

I think Rene will be going home UNFORTUNATELY

oh man, someone from the black team is going home

the blue team is just toxic and i dont even know if this show is worth watching anymore. you can tell bob doesn't even really like his team and could you blame him...i dont know what scares me more...vicky physically harming her child by making her obese ...i cannot help but wonder how many years of her life have been stolen by her mother's laziness or heba thinking that the values and behavior on the show are ones that she would teach to a child...whoever is casting next season...this show used to inspire people, now i cant help but see the "ugly americans" europeans often make fun of

I couldn't agree with you more!! I even just set up an account so I could respond to what I have seen tonight. I am extremely disappointed in this year's show - especially the last two weeks. I have always found that the Biggest Loser was more positive then any other reality show - now it seems that conflict and the "nice guy finishing last" is what this show is all about. I find the Blue Team extremely distructive and hypocritical. Hebba tells Phil how much better she is then he because she forgive him?! Please...! I also didn't appreciate Brady's "I'm the only Rooster in this hen house" comment showed who he truly is.
I honestly will give this program one more week and then I am finding something else to do then watch mean spirited people. Maybe I'll go for a run

What makes me feel bad is there are SO many people who want to be on this show for a chance to loose weight and be trained by these wonderful people. Heck, I feel the chance of being trained and educated by Bob and Jillian far outweighs $100K, $250K. Bob and Jillian want to teach people, they don't want to participate in this high school drama. Heba, Vicky, and Brady are clearly here for the wrong reasons, and mark my words, they are likely to gain all or more of their weight back when their 15 minutes are over. I am hoping against hope that they do not win ANY $$$$. They don't deserve it!!!! (are we allowed an angry face in here????)

yes last week the prize was videos from home...and vicky, the mother who has chosen to make her own flesh and blood morbidly obese, said that the prize of seeing her kids in a video message was NOT a good enough prize to put her full effort into the challenge...so i guess she just put the same thought and effort she puts into feeding her daughter unhealthy meals...if she didn't scare you already that should do it for you...my husband swears that within a year she has gained it ALL back and more...and her husband can find someone who thinks her kids are worth it

Yes Lynnet, an ugly face is allowed!! Nice post!!


To others.....name calling and vile comments are not, if you do it, your post will be deleted!!

We know why Brady lost so much weight....he's playing the game! It's obvious!
Too bad the black team lost. We have to put up with the Blues drama queens for another week....all of them!! (Excluding Amy of course!)

That would be so disappointing....not sure if I can keep watching if all this 'high-school drama' keeps up. That crap belongs on other shows....like Survivor. Go there and play your games and lose weight...

That may be very true. I vote yes

I agree, that woman needs to go. I have watched every episode of every season and she made this one the worst. Her family should be embarrassed!

I fear this is just going to make the Blue team more obnoxious than they already are.

This show did use to be about weight loss. There are so many people wanting, hoping and trying to get on this show to change their life. I have never been so disappointed in a season of TBL as this season. Vicky, Brady and Heba make me not want to watch this show. They are not good team players. I wish there was some way that they all could loose and go home. People watch this show for encouragment, information, and hope. Not to see people be vindictive, spiteful, and not good team players. I can not say enough how I dislike 3 of the 4 people on the blue team.

do you think they fix the games to try and control what team wins the challenge? Also as soon as phil is gone, Brady will have a HUGE target on his back. If they are playing the game, Vickie would need to be the biggest loser and then brady would have to "control" his weight and then vote off Heba. But that is only if Phil still there. Once one guy goes, the other loses his value! Go Black team

People you take the time to register to post, why are you wanting them deleted?
Please, no name calling and vile comments....READ THE RULES

I do. Too much of the game is staged to milk the suspense. The order of the weigh-ins makes it appears that the show's producers know the weight of the contestants before they hop on the scale. Let's face it, it's a reality show first and foremost.

I am flabbergasted at how personal the people have made it this year. Its seems like from episode 1 its been like that.

I bet they split the teams up next week.

They do know the weight of the contestants before they weigh in on those large scales.......those are fake scales that you see

Okay, so I know we will NEVER KNOW, but I still think brady waterloaded last week and then when he lost 13 pounds I think everyone on the black team thought he messed them over. I'm glad the black team is sticking together and realizing the blue team has issues. Heba talking about how she wanted the black team to see how aweful phil is? I'm pretty sure she just made more people not care for her. While I don't think phil is totally innocent, how adult is it to go up to phil and just reem him out and then turn around and say you forgive him and then tell him he is going to be embarressed by his actions. It seems like Heba is being fed so much by Vicky & Brady and that is clearly fueling her anger to the point that she's not thinking through her actions.
Do you think some of the drama will calm down now that phil is gone? or do you think Heba, Vicky, and Brady will find either someone or something new to be upset about?

Gotta admit I'm just not into the show as much this year with Vicki, Brady, and Heba still around. Having a mother/daughter and husband/wife still around gives too much leverage to these duos when voting comes around.
