I always love the makeover episode. This one wasn't quite as "WOW" as previous seasons, but I still enjoyed it. Yes, Liz used humor but I must be honest and say that I am one of those people who sits and eats ice cream and/or pizza while watching the weigh-ins. Though she was trying to be funny, she is speaking right to the heart of many of us.
Good luck to everyone on BL and I can't wait to see the finale!

It was the makeover episode. Each met with Tim Gunn and he treated them wonderfully.
They were told each would have to give an inspirational speech before an audience of around 300. That made them very nervous but each took the task in hand to tell the whys and hows.
Rebecca looked stunning in a little black dress. Tim meets her backstage before her speech and says I have one more surprise, turns her around and she screamed as she saw her sister. He did this with each as their family members were there. It was fantastic and they all looked fabulous.
They told their tale. Danny mentioned his daughter was his inspiration as she once said she wanted a belly like his. Allen said he saved lives each day and it was time to save his own. Rebecca's and Amanda's were sweet but Liz was a hit using humor. She said she watched TBL each season and would be eating ice cream while watching the weigh in.
Prior to the speeches Rudy revealed when he was 12 his sister was diagnosed with Cancer and died. Jillian and Bob were shocked he never mentioned this. She pushed and pushed until she and he sat down and he opened up. I think this helped him a great deal.
The weight in: Rudy and Danny both lost double digits (6 times in a row for Danny). Allen lost 5 and Jillian let him know at this point that's still a great number. Amanda got her biggest number yet - she lost NINE pounds and she squealed with delight. Both Liz and Rebecca lost 3 pounds and were up for elimination.
Rebecca asked to speak with Allen and Rudy alone after Liz spoke (without much effect). As the threesome left Allen told Liz she needed to fight. Rebecca reminded A&R that Liz has been here before and has a second and third chance - all she's asking for is her second.
Danny tells Liz to go and find A&R and plead her case and she does.
Amanda votes for Liz (being very close to Rebecca). Danny votes for Rebecca (as he's close to Liz). Then Allie says in the event of a tie the one with the lowest number would go - and that's Rebecca. One more vote for her and she's gone. Rudy is next. he talked about something he felt Rebecca did in past weeks. I missed a few episodes so I have no idea what he was referring to. They didn't need to see Allen's vote as Rebecca is now going.
This started an argument between Rebecca and Rudy with her asking why he never brought this up but it's all a moot point and she goes.
The reveal was great. Rebecca looks fantastic and it ended with her crying as she ran over the finish line of a half marathon!
