The Hungarian version of the hugely successful “The Biggest Loser” franchise, TV2‘s “A nagy fogyás”, has set a world weightloss record for the show. Between them, the contestants lost almost 500 kilos in five months, with fatties from Australia coming a distant second best, burning a total of 380 kgs – even though the show there lasted six months. Tonight’s winner is expected to be István Ferencsik (pictured zsír-free), who went from 197 to just over 90 kgs in the course of the show. Blue Team leader Norbert Schobert said he was very proud of the competitors and his sometimes bitter rival Alexandra Béres, adding that this makes the two of them the finest fitness trainers in the world.
