"THE BIGGEST LOSER 13"

"EPISODE 2"

01/10/2012 (08:00PM - 10:00PM) (Tuesday) : CONTESTANTS TRY TO GAMBLE THEIR WAY TO A WEIGH-IN WIN WITH POKER POP CHALLENGE-- The stakes are high this week when representatives of each team bid on the percentage of weight they think their team will lose at the weigh-in. The highest bidder gets a five-pound advantage if they hit their number at weigh-in - or lose the advantage to the other team if they don't hit their mark. "The Biggest Loser" nutritionist teaches the contestants how to shop for healthy food, and the black and red teams square off in a fast-paced challenge in which they have to turn an anchor wheel to retrieve puzzle pieces and then race against the clock to put the puzzle together. And later, the players get a sobering wake-up call when Dr. Huizenga reveals their real "inner ages, " before the weigh-in leads to another player going home.
