BIGGEST LOSER - JUST IN

SWEET Tink

My sister just called me all excited !!
I have twin half brothers. Lance and Lewis . Both of these young men are Morbidly Obese. Well she gets and email from Lance. Both have been called out to Los Angeles for final cuts on the LA Biggest Loser Show .

Lance and Lewis are 23 , both are EMT's from a small southeast community in Virginia . These two boys where the sweetest . We lost connection with them after my Dad died, but my sis and I reached out to them and have been talking to them for the past couple of years. I see so much of me in them when it comes to their Obesity . They also have a baby sister , Carla , named after my Dad .. she too is morbidly obese and is headed for so many problems . She is already experiencing medical issues at 17. I have reached out to her and hope one day she will start working on her weight issues . Her Mom and Grandmother are in denial , but I guess with Lance and Lewis on Biggest Loser , maybe they will get it .

Well if they get it , I will  let you know . Will be pretty neat to watch them progress if they get on the show .
Wish them luck  !

Thats great and keep working with them. With some it takes extra proding to get them to see the light and start losing the weight. I know that from personal experience.

Tink....
I need to warn ya....BE VERY CAREFUL posting info about anyone going to final cutt's!!!!! Or any step in the LONG LONG LONG process of being excepted on BL. One of the conditions that the producers feel VERY STRONGLY about is being secretive and as a matter of fact along the process the contestant or would be contestant HAVE TO sign a confidentiality statement and IF they find that ANY info has leaked out ESP on the net they will be DISQUALIFIED immediatly! I know three different couples this HAS happened too!!!

Please take my advice and delete the thread to keep this from happening because they have people that search the internet for thing's just like this!!!!

Good luck to your family!
