Bill and Jim Germanakos on How to Audition for The Biggest Loser

At The Biggest Loser Casting Call for Season 12

Maggie Badore of DietsInReview attended The Biggest Loser open casting call in New York city to bring you an insider's look at how contestants for the show are chosen. Over 800 people turned up for the audition, which is part of the search for contestants to be on the 13th season of the wildly popular and inspiring reality television show. We spoke with contestant hopefuls, past contestants and casting directors.

In this viedo, Maggie talks to Bill and Jim Germanakos, the winner and at-home winners of The Biggest Loser in season four. They talk about their own experiences auditioning for the show, and about what they think make them stand out to the casting directors. They share how they're staying in shape. The brothers also share advice to all the people who won't make it on to the show, and point out the resources that they have at their disposal to change their lives without the show or the ranch.

The one piece of advice that we heard from everyone we spoke with at the casting call is that you should be true to yourself.
