Wow everyone looked great! Up first were the at home contestants battling it out for $50, 000 and the winner was Poppy who went from a size 22 to a size 2! That was amazing. Then they had the eliminated players go for the $100,000.00 and Brian from the blue team who lost more than what he weighed won, Jaron was close behind. With the final 4 Wylie, Kai, Heather, and Erik all had done an amazing job. Heather could not weigh in because she was pregnant and looked great!
Erik got to choose the order and chose Kai to go first, then Wylie, and then himself. Kai who began this journey at 262 weighed in at 144lbs, she had lost 118lbs at 45.04%. Wylie was up next he started at 307 and weighed in at 178 losing 129lbs at 42.02% leaving Kai in first place. Erik needed to lose 186lbs to beat Kai, he started off at 407lbs abd weighed in at 193lbs losing an amazing 214lbs at an amazing 52.58%! He was crowned the biggest loser for season 3.

Erik now had to break the news to Bob that he had sent his fellow teammate home. Bob was very upset couldn’t believe Erik did that and told him he hopes he knows what he is doing. After the initial shock wore off Bob told Erik he would be devoted to him to help him become the biggest loser.
The challenge the contestants had to strap on the weight they had lost back on in a race and along the way there were barrels set up that the contestants would have to drop some of their weight at each barrell symbolizing how much weight they had lost along the way. Wylie had a big lead until he forgot to drop off some of his weight at a barrell and had to go back giving the lead to Jaron who kept the lead and won the challenge. Jaron’s wife got to come to the ranch and stay the night as his reward.
At the last chance workout Bob was giving Erik all he had because if Erik was going home Bob was too and he wasn’t about to let that happen. Kim continued to work out her five for the final weigh in. The final weigh in Jaron was up first and had lost 8lbs which means he had lost 100lbs total! Kai lost an amazing 9lbs and Wylie lost 12 giving him 5% weight loss. Adrian only lost 2lbs then whined about how there was no way that could be right since she ran a lot that week. Erik was sweating bullets since everyone was putting up big numbers and he needed to pull big numbers in order to stay on the ranch and to keep Bob there too and he did it with 12 lb weight loss. Erik’s weight loss pushed Heather and Adrian below the yellow line and it was no suprise that they sent Adrian packing.
