"The Biggest Loser: No Excuses"- PREMIERE

QUALIFYING CHALLENGE: In the first round, one member per team will run a 40-yard dash; the first four to cross the finish line gain entry to the campus for their teams.

R1 RESULTS:

1. Dark Blue Team
2. Orange Team
3. Brown Team
4. Yellow Team

(Note: Mark Cornelison blew out a knee during that round.)

In the second round, the six teams will collect puzzle pieces one at a time & take them to a stand where they will solve the puzzle before hitting a big white button back at the start. The first four duos to solve their puzzle & finish the 40-yd. dash are also in the game.

R2 RESULTS:

1. Grey Team (Chism represented them)
2. Red Team (Christina Pickler represented them)
3. Purple Team (Kim Stone represented them)
4. Green Team (Conda Britt represented them)

In the Last Chance Round, the Light Blue Team & the Pink Team (BTW, Kim "Desire" Nielson finished fifth for them in the prior round) will each hold onto themselves for as long as possible. The team that drops will be forced to leave the campus grounds immediately...



























































































































...& it's Adrian & Daphne Dortch. But they can still qualify if, a month from now, they weigh in & lose at least 50 pounds as a team.
