Description
Summary:Cole relates how couple Nicole Brewer and Damien Gurganious shed 250 plus pounds in the reality show The Biggest Loser. Nicole and Damien admit that the jumpstart of being on The Biggest Loser ranch with the other contestants from the show opened their eyes. They were pushed to workout far more strenuously than they believed possible. And they got immediate gratification after losing 18 and 17 pounds, respectively, the first week, proving that they could do it. Their initial weight loss wasn't enough to keep them safely on the show, but it was a great start.
