The Full Story Of The Incredible Weight Loss Twins
You have heard about the Weight Loss Twins, and now you can find out the full story of these amazing people. The Dad of the famous Weight Loss Twins, George Germanakos, used to say, "The only way to get something done is to get it started." Imagine how delighted and proud he would have been if he had lived long enough to see his twin boys, Bill and Jim, diet and exercise their way to victory on series 4 of the enormously popular NBC dieting and fitness show The Biggest Loser to become well known as The Weight Loss Twins. Surprisingly, it wasn't always like that, though Jim Germanakos has traditionally been a great fan of the series. Jim's a Manhattan cop and a big family man. Up to 2 years before, whenever his shifts allowed, he would sit on the settee before the TV munching away on high-cal comfort snacks, soaked up by the exploits of the shrinking contestants, but not particularly worried about his own 295lb ever growing frame. That was before his "ahaa" moment, before he was one of the Weight Loss Twins.
The Weight Loss Twins weighed into the show at 361lbs and 334lbs. Jim and Bill had been large guys all their lives. The Weight Loss Twin's pop, George, had been a large man also and had died of obesity related complications when they were young. In spite of this, Jim was an active guy, a dedicated fire-fighter and cop who enjoyed messing around and play with his kids. He didn't think his own weight was really a great obstacle. His other half, Val, was a big woman as well. In common with lots of us, they enjoyed their food. As Jim puts it, when you reach 295lbs you come to accept your obesity and keep on snacking..
That's until the moment when your weight begins to get in the way of your folk's happiness! It was when his sixteen year old son, a keen eagle scout, eventually got himself and his father accepted on an exciting adventure trip, that Jim suddenly understood his obesity was potentially a massive drawback. While working out in an intensive training session, when the coach discovered that Jim weighed over 300lbs, he had to stop both father and son from going on the trip. It turned out that the helicopters couldn't evacuate anyone with a weight of over 250lbs. His son was so distraught he was crying all the way home. He loved Jim but he understood that his father had let him down. For Jim this was a slap in the face, his "Ahaa moment" and he resolved to do something about it - as one of the Weight Loss Twins.
Then together, the Germanakos brothers, the Weight Loss Twins, auditioned for The Biggest Loser. During the first 5 weeks Jim was able to lose 54 pounds. Then Jim was knocked out of the competition. During the next 6 months back home, through dedication and grit, he shed a further 133lbs. He could not have done it without the love and support from his other half, Val, who also shed 50lbs. The Weight Loss Twins went on to win the show. Bill was the series winner and Jim was given the "Winner of losers" prize.
Since then the Weight Loss Twins have been featured on TV shows like Larry King Live and Entertainment Tonight and have gained universal affection and world wide fame. They have quite rightly become celebrities in their own field. Particularly, they'll soon be turned into video game icons when they appear as characters in the very popular Nintendo Wii video game fitness series. Most importantly in the period since they were winners in the show both the Weight Loss Twins have shown they can keep almost all of the wonderful weight loss they achieved at the time when they appeared on The Biggest Loser.
Would you like to lose some excess weight like the Weight Loss Twins? How do your family members feel about your size and weight? In a similar way to money and alcohol problems, excess weight gain may be a gigantic reason for marriage break-ups. How honest is your family doctor? Have they informed you that the multiple hazards to your health due to your excess weight might mean that you can never live to watch your children graduate or get to walk your daughter down the aisle? If that's the case, have you had your own "ahaa" moment yet?
