Put the weight back on challenge – You have to give John a lot of credit for pulling ahead of first Sunny, then Antone to win the challenge. I was a little disappointed that Antone wouldn’t shake John’s hand at the finish line. I wasn’t surprised that Vinny came in last.

When I saw the guys with scrubby faces, I figured the producers told them not to shave so that the makeover would seem more striking. I didn’t think the makeovers were that dramatic vs. past seasons. However, the makeovers were more obvious at the weigh-in when they showed each person’s starting photo on the split screen.

I loved that Becky’s husband lost 50 pounds on his own. And then I cried when he put her wedding ring on her finger. My first reaction when Vinny saw his girlfriend was, “Hey! Vinny’s dating Snooki!” When I saw John’s wife, I figured John’s going to have a tough time when he gets home. Becky’s husband lost weight because she went on TBL. Sunny’s husband has always been fit and he got a tennis membership for the both of them to use together. But John’s wife looks like she should have been on the show, as well. Then a little later in the show, Dolvett also expressed concern about John falling back into bad habits and hinted that John’s wife might be a problem. Hopefully, John stays as strong at home as he’s been on the ranch and is able to help his wife.

Bob was freaked out about makeover week and everyone’s weight loss. When Sunny lost 1 pound, he was pissed. But fortunately everyone else’s weight loss was good. I was surprised Vinny had such a good week. But I think it’s a matter of too little, too late. He's still in last place. I’m not sure he can do the work on his own at home.

It was interesting that John decided he wanted to go up against Antone in the finale. The reason he gave was that he wanted to go up against an NFL pro athlete. He said that Antone is competition and that he pushes John. However, Sunny was more competition for him than Antone because as of last week she had a higher percentage of weight loss than Antone. I think John was still playing the game.
