“For almost three months, The Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition contestants
Raffy Tan and Hazel Chua had consoled and encouraged each other as
they faced the physical and emotional challenges inside the Biggest Loser
camp.
“But after Hazel was eliminated from the competition last Tuesday
(August 9), they have to continue transforming their lives, separately and
by themselves.
“The 22 year-old was voted out by majority of the remaining Bigating
Pinoy including Angela, Art, Ryan, and Larry. They said Hazel is more
ready to go out of the camp than Winwin, who joined her in the
elimination ceremony.
“As Angela put it, Hazel is already a butterfly while the 18 year-old
Winwin is still sleeping in her cocoon. The two fell below the yellow line
during the weigh-in after gaining a pound each despite their strenuous
marine camp training.
“Larry, whose “six-pack” is starting to show, was declared the Biggest
Loser of the week for shedding three lbs. or 1.59% of his previous weight.
“Before the tearful elimination ceremony, Raffy kissed Hazel, who served
as his inspiration inside the camp. Their parting was painful but it did
solidify the trust they have for each other.
“Hazel even said she is confident that Raffy will prevail as the program’s
first Biggest Loser. “I believe so much in Raffy and I know he’ll do
everything to be the first winner of the Biggest Loser Pinoy Edition,” she
said.
“She also vowed to go through an extreme transformation to wow the
campers and the program’s loyal followers in the grand finale. However,
Hazel said that as early as now she can say she’s already a changed
person.
“The BL camp really changed how I view life. I can now walk with my
head up and not try to hide my face in shame. I’m a more disciplined and
a much happier person now because I feel good inside and out,” she
revealed.
“While life goes on for Hazel, same goes for Raffy and the remaining
Bigating Pinoys Andy, Art, Angela, Larry, Leigh, Ryan, and Winwin. On this
round, they are faced with a tough challenge from game master Derek
Ramsay that tests not just their discipline in training and eating, but also in
strategizing.
“For this week’s immunity, the contenders will race each other in
dropping 2% of their current weight. They will be given a one-time-only
weigh-in access card, so they will have to gauge themselves to be sure
they’ve already lost enough weight before they stand on the weighing
scale.
“Making this week even tougher for them is a new rule during the weigh-
in. Instead of two, four Bigating Pinoys will fall under the yellow line and
undergo the elimination ceremony.
“Find out the different tactics the Bigating Pinoys will employ to acquire
immunity and avoid being booted from the camp. Watch how they will
handle another unanticipated twist that will intensify the competition even
more.”
