The Biggest Loser Season 16 Episode3 Spoilers: the contestant who lost the lowest percentage of body weight was automatically eliminated, Cate was the lowest. She was sent home.

The biggest loser season 16 has already done its premiere, and in first two episodes the contestants of The Biggest Loser season 16 were exposed to different type of challenge: a quiz about childhood obesity. In a game-show style segment, teams were asked to answer questions, including how much the rate of childhood obesity has multiplied in the past 30 years. One question -- "What percentage of parents thinks their obese child is healthy or even underweight?" -- was particularly eye-opening. The questions were tricky, even for health journalists -- hopefully viewers were surprised about their own inability to answer the questions, as well.

The losing team -- Bob's blue team -- was forced into a gimmick: they had to sit in a "junk room," full of TVs, video games and junk food, for four and a half hours each day while their competitors were at the gym. The point was to illustrate the extracurricular activities of the majority of American children and the team members did seem deeply miserable. To cope, teammate Alex poured orange juice over the chips, candy, cookies and doughnuts, ruining them.

Meanwhile, in the gym, the language surrounding the workouts was changing. Contestants like Cate talked about their workouts in terms of "tough" and "good" rather than "torturous" for the first time as far as we know. The episode also introduced Dr. Joanna Dolgoff, a pediatrician who specializes in childhood obesity. Dr. Joanna visited each of the three teenage contestants' houses to talk through eating habits and have a look at the food environment.

Meanwhile, the contestants were forced through a ridiculous and humiliating "carnival" obstacle course, including crawls through a mucky pit filled with something meant to resemble chewing gum. On the upside, the teamwork and sense of goodwill among contestants was really apparent.

That continued through the most grueling and also most cheerful "last chance workout" -- Cate and Jackson shone on the red team and even Pam improved her performance over on the white team (though she continued to argue with Jillian). Bob's blue team, in an effort to undo the ill effects of their extra "junk room" time actually performed a workout in that very room, symbolically conquering it and sending a message: you can work out anytime, anywhere.

But despite dedication and much goodwill, the warm fuzziness would only get contestants so far -- it was another "red line" weigh in. In other words, the contestant who lost the lowest percentage of body weight was automatically eliminated. Unfortunately, this week, the percentage weight lost by dedicated red team member Cate was the lowest. She was sent home.
