Week 10 over at "The Biggest Loser Couples" brought its share of highs and lows, including a regrettable Black team dinner and tequila binge on a 24-hour day away from the ranch. Like freshman away at college, their Biggest-Losers-Gone-Wild high-calorie binge cost them physically and mentally. More on that hazy, crazy night later. On a positive note, after last week's annoying cliffhanger, Mike dropped 11 pounds and kept both teams out of the elimination room. It's exciting to see this young guy shed weight so fast, pointing himself in the opposite direction of morbid obesity.

Face-Off Pop Challenge -- Each week is getting unpredictable over at Biggest Loser, just the way producers like it. The player that performed a thigh-burning Wall Sit the longest won the ability to assign one-on-one Black versus Blue match-ups for the week. One player from each team would be paired with a player from the other team, whoever won the most weight scored a point for their team. Tara narrowly beat Mandi at the Wall Sit -- try these, they're nasty hard -- and assigned Mike vs. Cathy; Sione vs. Mandi; Filipe vs. Kristin, Helen vs. Ron and Laura vs. Aubrey. Surprisingly, she didn't put herself into play. Did Tara play it right? Read on.

Relay for Luxury -- I loved this relay race to win 24 hours of luxury for the entire team at a California resort. Players hauled 24 six-pound medicine balls across the pool, up the stairs, under obstacles and up/down in hundreds of squats. Loser Blue stayed close, but Black was unbeatable again. But maybe this wasn't the best prize to win.

Binge Gone Bad -- I've been impressed with this season's contestants ... until now. After Black jumped into a black stretch for a ranch-free 24 hours, they lost their heads like a pack of Red-Bulled teenagers. They scarfed more than 15,563 calories packed with fatty filet mignon, mashed potatoes and stuffed chicken, double tequila shots, more drinks, then Filipe ordered late-night chicken tenders and fries. Helen even sucked down a smoke. The whole scene was just gross, reminding me of a guy I knew who lost a ton of weight on a restrictive diet, then celebrated his 'accomplishment' with a major gorge at a steak joint. Yes, he gained all the weight back shortly thereafter. If you lose weight and want to keep it off, those new diet and fitness habits are for a lifetime, not a short time. This was the most important point of this episode -- so many people yo-yo around this fact all their lives.

1,612 Calories For Blue -- Blue took advantage of alone time in the gym and consumed just 1,612 calories for their dinner. Was it enough to beat Black?

Filipe Flips Out -- When Jillian found out Black had eaten and drank themselves silly, she was furious. Sure, they're adults, but they've chosen to be on "Biggest Loser" and follow her guidance. Filipe flipped out, accusing Jillian of turning her back on him in the gym. He and Sione ran off to train with Bob instead. The whole story is always gray on a reality show, but couldn't Filipe have had a calm conversation with Jillian first? For once, Jillian was speechless.

• Bob says nine out of 10 of us don't get enough fiber each day. To improve digestion and feel fuller longer, track and consume fiber just like you maintain proper calories, fat, carbs and protein. Fiber One snack bars are one way to score one-third of your daily fiber at around 140 calories each. I like 'em, but can't buy 'em -- they trigger my sweet tooth.
• Combining protein with carbs and fat can increase fullness and sustain your energy, says Jillian. Serve cantaloupe with your eggs, toss beans on your salad -- think 'combination' here, one reason I love salad bars so much. I had pineapple with my eggs this morning thanks to this tip.
