Even MORE Fattest Losers!




Well, as predicted in the comments of this post, Sam and Sarah were recently replaced on the second series of Australia’s version of The Biggest Loser by newcomers Laura and P’eta.

Also as predicted in those comments, American trainers Bob and Jillian have left the show – although this happened far sooner than I expected. I presume (and hope) we’ll see them in a live cross from LA (or better still, in person) for the finale … if not before.

This means Shannan and Michelle (who Wifey and I have both grown to like and respect quite a lot) will be the Losers’ only trainers for the remainder of the season. Barring any further twists and surprises, that is.

Seeing as we did it for the other contestants last week, it’s only fair that we now take a look at the replacement contestant in more detail:




Name: P’eta

Team: Blue

Age: 27

Height: 179cm

Starting Weight: 131kg

Target Weight: 75kg

Points of Interest:

1. Strange frickin’ name.

2. Lesbian.

3. Initially ostracised herself from the other competitors by appearing so stern (and being the first – and only – contestant to mention the prize money as one of her goals and motivations).

4. Doesn’t appear to be as ‘bad’ as she first appeared.

5. I’d LOVE to see her go head-to-head with Courtney in some sort of physical challenge … and beat him.










Name: Laura

Team: Red

Age: 20

Height: 175cm

Starting Weight: 109kg

Target Weight: 70kg

Points of Interest:

1. Timid.

2. I can’t tell if it’s her shyness, or if she just irritates me a bit. Perhaps it’s a bit of both.

3. Her youth and naivety come through with many of the things she says.

4. Cries a bit easily.






I give them two weeks. As soon as each of their teams go to the elimination room (and the girls don't have immunity), they'll be the next people to be voted off the show.
