WEEK #2:
All the contestants were in-studio to check on their progress after one week. Two were supposed to be kicked-off, but a shocking surprise lead to only one person leaving, while the other dropped out! Sarah left for having the lowest weight loss percentage, but it was Pierre who dropped out and didn't want to talk about why... LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
WEEK #3:
The contestants stopped by to check in, but for a second week in a row, someone was missing! Another contestant was out before the elimination had begun. Melissa dropped out for "personal reasons" and Sharice was eliminated for having the lowest percentage of weight loss. Alex is currently in the lead.
WEEK #4:
Healthe Trim CEO Matthew Dwyer came in town to coach the contestants and participate in a challenge, "Treadmill Trivia" (thanks to World Gym.) Only 4 of the 6 remaining contestants were able to make it, so they missed a chance to win immunity from elimination this week. WATCH THE VIDEO OR LISTEN to find who won! P.S. It wasn't Jason or Darlene, they were eliminated this week.
