The show and the season started off with a scene of a very overweight man walking in front of the camera. The difference that started off this season was that the new players started off having to weigh in at their home towns, in public. The new players were, for the first time ever, had to take their shirts off to weigh in at a public place, in their home town. There were various scenes of the players yelling and getting yelled at by Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels and it ended up with Bob and Jillian looking up saying that one of the 22 players would be the next Biggest Loser. The Season 9 Premier was a go and now for the recap and review of that entire episode.
The next scene was Bob and Jillian calling all the players on the phone one at a time and telling them that they had to each weigh in in front of all their friends, in their home towns. The one to do so first was the Orange Team players walking into the gym of a High School, while two brothers in Orlando, Florida were getting set to weigh in. Then Patti from the Purple Team and then back to the Brown Team while the Orange Team Daris walked up to the scale in public. Daris weighed in at 346 pounds and then he addressed the crowd and told them he was going to make them proud. His mother was dressed in and Orange shirt to cheer him on. The mother was Cheryl and she weighed in at 227. Then Patricia on the Purple Team weighed in at 243 followed by her team mate at 264 pounds. James on the Brown Team weighed in at a whopping 485 and his twin brother John was a close 484 pounds. They were the half ton twins and they were huge. WOW!!!
The Pink Team was Ashley and Sheri, Mother, daughter team. Ashley, the daughter was weighed in at 374, then the Black Team came out and introduced themselves as a Dad Daughter Team. Andrea was 298 while Dad, Darrell was at 413 pounds. Soon we were in Texas with the Blue Team Cherita and Victoria and Cherita was at 277 while Victoria was 358. They were a mother, daughter Team.
Another Mom, daughter team came out and they were Migadalia,Daughter weighed in at 265, while Mom weighed in at 240 pounds. They were on the Green Team and they were from Puerto Rico. Quickly we were with a married couple Melissa at 233 and her hubby at 365 named Lance. They were the Red Team and they lived on a ranch somewhere in Texas. The next two players were Tongans and they were Koli and Sam. Koli was 403 and his cousin and Black Team Mate Sam weighed in at 372. They were inspired from the previous season players from Tonga.
Sunshine and O’neal were father, daughter team and outside a post office they stepped on a scale to weigh in. O’neal said he had to have his daughter put his shoes on while Sunshine confessed she has never even been kissed by a boy. Sunshine weighed in at 275 and broke down in tears. Her Dad weighed in at 389 pounds and he actually looked much larger. Next we were in Chicago watching son and Mom Italians Maria at 281 and ,Mike step on the scale at 526 pounds and he looked very large as he stood in front of his favorite Italian restaurant on the scale. The show continued as does this recap and review of The Biggest Loser Season 9 after the break of commercials.
After the break we were on The Biggest Loser Ranch watching Limo after limo pull up as the players started to arrive and meet with the host Allison. With all the players at the ranch Allison welcomed them and told the players to follow her. They walked up to the gym and there was no equipment in the building to be seen. Allison told them there was a season of surprises ahead and the first challenge was about to start and it had to do with bikes. The players had to ride 26.2 miles on a stationary bike and were told that the first 9 teams to finish would stay on the ranch and the two teams that came in last place would be asked to leave the ranch as soon as they lost. As all the players gasped in shock, the recap and review of the season episode went to another commercial break. The season Premier for season 9 was about to really get started.
The players all told America that they were there less than 5 minutes and they were in shock they were already getting ready to be sent home. Allison told the players they were the sickest players ever on the show and that there were a team of medical personnel standing by in case they were needed during the competition. The camera switched back and forth between the team members bikes, as the , miles the individual team players were combined to the one total goal of 26.2 miles. The players were not doing well, as none of them were in decent shape. The Green Team was the first to make the 26.2 miles and the also were the first to win immunity. The rest of the teams came in as Gray team and then Black Team followed by Orange Team. The Blue Team Mom was not doing well and then she keeled over in pain and grabbed the bike while Dr. H. grabbed her to stop her from falling to the floor. Surrounded by medical personnel and Dr. H. she was told her it “was over” and she had to get off the bike. The Pink Team came in next followed by The Red Team and then The Italian White Team. The Brown Team was next and then it was the Purple Team. The Yellow and Blue Team were the two losers that were to be sent home. Allison said goodbye to the two losing teams and they walked out of the gym door to awaiting limos parked outside.
Jillian and Bob stopped the limo before it left the ranch, it was dark as Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels ran out in front of the car and stopped them from exiting the ranch. Jillian and Bob got in the limo and told them it was not over. Inside the limo the two teams were told they would head home for 30 days and then come back and weigh in. Both teams were estatic and quickly it was the next morning and Bob Harper set off the fire alarm to the entire building and the players started to file out of the building. Bob told America he had the biggest group of people he has ever seen. Jillian looked tiny compared to the men players. Bob told them it was time to start and they all went right at the workout. Bob said the “day one” workout was meant to be a wake up call. Jillian said the players were puking out of windows left and right while others were crying and Jillian told America that they had not even started yet. Jillian then spoke about how important it was to hydrate and drink water.
Jillian then cornered Mom Cheryl and said she was the one that always put everyone else in front of herself. Jillian yelled in her face and asked her if she was ready to put herself first. Cheryl then became a wild woman and Bob said “someone wound up that Moma like a top in the gym”. She was screaming and yelling and punching a bag as if she became a possessed demon. The first hour of The Biggest Loser Season 9 Premiere was over.
The players were all sitting around confessing how unhappy they were with their lives and the tears were flying and the confessions were flowing. All of the players were opening up and telling the world all of the things that dragged them down. They told how the previous seasons influenced their desire to be on the show and make a change in their lives. It was quite touching as each player truly opened up to the world about how unhappy they were.
As in all previous seasons the season premiere of season 9 was no different when talking about BodyBugg. Bob Harper explained to America all the benefits of how great the Bodybuggwas to aid a person lose weight. Bob Harper explained how all of the features worked and how it added up the calories that were burned each and every minute a person wore the BodyBugg. Seeing Bob Harper explain the Benefits of Bodybugg
answered many of the viewers asking the question “what is that thing on the arm of the players on The Biggest Loser?” The answer was simple, listening to Bob Harper tell America how to operate The BodyBugg. It was easy to see that although Bob was doing a paid commercial, he believed in the product. It was one of the times that Bob Harper did not sound like a commercial, while acting for a commercial.
Bob then told America just how big the players were this season and how he had his work cut out for him this season. Jillian told the ladies they had a nation to inspire and Bob gave the nickname Texas to one of the Red Team male players. Jillian told America that although they may have known the show as a fan, they still did not KNOW what a last chance work out was all about. The Black Team was suffering and Bob told America that the first last chance workout was to push the limits. Jillian told America that The Biggest Loser Ranch was the end of the road and that you really did not want to be there.
The Brown Team John was then telling America he had a bad knee and he was at a disadvantage. It sounded as if he was already making excuses of why he could not keep going. Then we saw him swimming in a pool and him telling America he was not going to give up.
The players were then seen walking into their very first weigh in. Allison told them it was a wild week since they beared their bodies and souls to America on the scale in public. The results went on with Bob Harper telling America that the teams this year were the biggest players in the history of the show. Allison told them the weigh in was about to start and it was the total percentage of weight loss that determined the winner and the loser. Since the Green Team won immunity they went first. The weigh in went as follows:
Green Team: Migdalia 265 / 249 lost 16 pounds. Miggy 240 / 224 lost 13 pounds. Total team loss is 29. 5.74%

White Team: Maria 281 / 268 lost 13 pounds. Michael 526 / 492 lost 34 pounds. Total team lost 47 pounds. Michael Lost more weight than anyone in Biggest Loser Season history 5.82%
The team that had the lowest percentage of body fat lost was the Brown Team. That meant that either James or John was going to go home. John pleaded his case that his knee was bad and he himself should be sent home because his knee bad. Cheryl told America she hated to break up a twin brother team. The other players were not sure of who to send home. The pros were to keep the one with the bad knee so he would get help he needed. As the commercial break came on the viewers had no idea who was going home. It was a tough call for the rest of the players on the ranch.
We restarted the show sitting at the table of elimination. The Green Team voted to sent home John. The Black Team voted for James. The Red Team voted to send home James. The Pink Team voted to send home James. The Purple Team voted to send home James. The White Team voted to send home James.
The player with the most votes and voted to be sent home was James. The Player voted off the series premiere of The Biggest Loser Season 9 that aired on January 5, 2010 was James.
James vowed to America that he was going to keep going after he got home. The Biggest Loser Transformation Moment showed James at home lost 100 pounds in 2 months. He went from 485 pounds to 385 pounds and he looked better and claimed he worked out all the time. He said he eats home all the time and he was getting very happy and there were scenes of his wife saying she lost 24 pounds herself and she was proud of what they had accomplished. It was a touching moment to see the positive results from someone that really did not look like he was motivated while he was on the ranch. Maybe he was ALOT more motivated that he looked, because he did go home and lose 100 pounds.
That is all for the Season 9 Series Premier of The Biggest Loser that aired on January 5 2010. We hope you enjoyed this recap and review of the show! See you next week for the next Biggest Loser recap and Review on Thin Blog.
