The Tale of The Weight Loss TwinsSubmitted by lv.99@live.com Mon, 6 Jul 2009
The father of the popular Weight Loss Twins, George Germanakos, used to assert, "The only way to get something done is to get it started." Imagine how overjoyed and proud he'd have been if he'd lived for long enough to watch his twin boys, Bill and Jim, diet and exercise their way to victory on series 4 of the hugely popular NBC weight-loss show The Biggest Loser to become well known as The Weight Loss Twins. You'll be surprised to hear, it wasn't always like that, though Jim Germanakos has always been a big fan of the show. Jim is a Manhattan cop and a loving family man. Up to a couple of years before, when his shifts allowed, he'd sit on the settee before the TV chewing away at high-cal comfort snacks, soaked up by the stories of the shrinking competitors, but not really concerned about his own 295lb ever expanding waistline. That was before his "ahaa" moment, before he became one of the Weight Loss Twins.
The Weight Loss Twins weighed into the competition at 361lbs and 334lbs. Jim and Bill had been heavy guys since they were kids. The Weight Loss Twin's pa, George, had been a big man also and had died from obesity related sicknesses when they were children. In spite of this, Jim was an active man, a dedicated fire-fighter and cop who liked to join in and play with his children. He didn't think his own size was a large handicap. His wife, Val, was a big lady too. Just like a lot of people, they enjoyed . As Jim remarks, when you reach 295lbs you simply come to accept your obesity and keep on snacking.. Until your obesity starts to get in the way of your folks's happiness! It was when his sixteen year old son, an ardent eagle scout, eventually got himself and his pop accepted on a once in a lifetime adventure trip, that Jim suddenly realised his obesity was potentially a massive drawback. When they were participating in a rigorous training session, when the coach found out that Jim weighed over 300lbs, he had to ban father and son from the trip. It turned out that the helicopters weren't able to evacuate anyone who weighed more than 250lbs. His son was so distressed he cried all the way back. He loved Jim but he knew that his father had let him down. As far as Jim was concerned this was his wake-up call, his "Ahaa moment" and he determined to do something about it - as one of the Weight Loss Twins. So together, the Germanakos brothers, the Weight Loss Twins, went on The Biggest Loser. In the first 5 weeks Jim managed to lose 54 lbs. Next Jim was eliminated from the competition. During the next six months back home, through dedication and grit, he shed another 133lbs. He couldn't have done it without the love and help from his wife, Val, who also shed 50lbs. The Weight Loss Twins went on to win the competition. Bill was the series winner and Jim was awarded the "Winner of losers" prize. Since that point the Weight Loss Twins have been featured on television shows including Larry King Live and Entertainment Tonight and have been given nation-wide love and approbation. They have justifiably become celebrities in their own field. Particularly they will soon be achieving celebrity in the video-gaming arena when they appear as characters in the hugely popular Nintendo Wii series. Most significantly in the period since they won the show both the Weight Loss Twins have shown they can keep almost all of the fantastic weight reduction they achieved when they took part in The Biggest Loser.
