O’Neal waited for the blue team members to return from the elimination room. The “Biggest Loser” couples from the blue team came through the door one by one, but none of them was Sunshine. O’Neal became so nervous waiting to see his daughter walk through the door that he quit watching. Then when she finally appeared, a tearful and relieved O’Neal greeted her with a big hug.<\/p>\n

Test of Strength<\/h3>\n

Alison informed the “Biggest Loser” couples that in order to learn how to stay fit while on a busy schedule, they’d each work full-time jobs this week. Given that they would be working, it would be up to them to find time for the gym.<\/p>\n

Soon after Alison revealed that bit of news, it was on to their challenge. For the challenge, each of the team’s worked together to pull a semi truck, and one member from each team ran along side picking up puzzle pieces. The first team to collect all their puzzle pieces won a year’s worth of free groceries.

O’Neal picked up the pieces for the blue team, and Sherry picked up the pieces for the black team. The blue team took the lead early on, but O’Neal kept falling behind, which had his team worried that they would lose the challenge. With a lot of motivation from his teammates, O’Neal picked up the pace, and the blue team came out victorious.<\/p>\n

After the challenge, the “Biggest Loser” couples told Bob and Jillian about their jobs. Shortly after they filled the trainers in, Bob and Jillian wasted no time in getting their teams to the gym for a workout session. Knowing the contestants would only get an hour or two in the gym after they started work, Bob and Jillian made this workout count. There was no doubt work and gym time would be rough on the contestants, but that was the show’s way of preparing the couples for life outside of the ranch.<\/p>\n

Preparing for Home<\/h3>\n

The next day the “Biggest Loser” couples headed to work. The jobs consisted of desk jobs, lifting, driving forklifts and distributing food to the needy. Despite their job, each of the contestants agreed that the work was tiring, but regardless of how beat they were at the end of the day, they had to hit the gym before they could enjoy any R&R (rest and relaxation).<\/p>\n

During the third day of work, Sam forgot his lunch and the vending machines didn’t have any healthy options. Luckily, though, there was a Subway nearby, so Sam walked there and ordered a veggie sub. Later, Jillian praised Sam for his wise decision.<\/p>\n

After five days of working on the job and in the gym after work, and then participating in an intense Last Chance Workout, and exhausted bunch of “Biggest Loser” couples made their way to the scale with confidence.<\/p>\n

Weighing In<\/h3>\n

The blue team weighed in first.<\/p>\n
