Even I speculate the night before what the results will be to myself, while cooking up my pre-weigh-in filming dinner of tuna, salad and a tub of non-fat yoghurt...OK, maybe a Ben and Jerry's Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz ice-cream in place of the yoghurt, but I wouldn't admit that to the contestants! It's a long day so I need a pre-filming boost!
That whole weigh-in/elimination was one I would like to forget. A positive aspect was the obvious love and respect the contestants have for one another and Rick's devotion to his brother.
The remaining four contestants were whisked away to NZ the following day which they were thrilled about. Half of me wanted to go with them but I think this part of their journey was important to take with two very significant people - their trainers, Shannan and Michelle. I was very fortunate to join them for a wonderful day of foraging, cooking, ceremonies and a very scary SkyJump!
When I arrived in Auckland, they were so excited about everything they had experienced and were so proud of their achievements and how far they have progressed, both mentally and physically, to this point.
Something wonderful is coming up on the show which was without doubt my most memorable day of filming, so please keep watching!
