I’m starting new (after having missed weeks of blogging…) and it’s probably a good thing, because I’ve gotten over any things that may have really bugged me. Like Tracey falling below the yellow line, and Mo being the martyr… And Tracey seriously having some sort of witch power, winning every possible advantage. Anyway, I’m over it. I still can’t stand the woman, and I will jump for joy the day she falls below and they actually send her home. (They alluded to something next week, but you never know…)

As far as this episode goes, I really like face-off week. You truly never know who is going to pull the bigger number. So, even though Blue team won the power to decide who faced off, I definitely don’t think it was a clear win for them. Especially when Black team finally won a challenge, and gained a 2-pound advantage at the weigh-in! I was so happy for them! (Too bad it didn’t make a difference.)

I can’t remember all of the numbers, but I actually don’t think the 2-pound advantage would have helped the Black team at all. It didn’t make a difference for Amanda. And I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t have made a difference for Shay, Daniel, or even Abby. It was mad at first until I saw how bad all of their numbers were. (Other than Danny). The only hope is that they’ll all pull big numbers next week. (And maybe Tracey will go home!)

I just love Abby. That girl is absolutely amazing. In probably every aspect of her life. Although I wasn’t devastated that she went home, and she is still recovering from a stress fracture, I definitely thought Daniel deserved to go. What is his deal? He’s barely 20! I know everyone’s bodies lose weight differently, but the guy gained a pound last week, and only lost 5 this week. There is obviously something wrong with that picture. And Jillian, you could tell, didn’t really believe him. I think she’ll be surprised to see him still there.
