Vladimir (Wal) Milberg

Biography: Wal loves his family and lives life to the fullest. He's driven by an impressive dedication to better himself and guarantee that his job is secure. The domineering 42 year-old openly admits that he eats a huge volume of food. 8 meals a day may seem a bit extreme but when you see Wal, you understand why this giant of a man needs plenty of fuel.
Big Wal is prepared to match his diet with tireless hard work but complacency has led to obesity, and despite his jovial demeanour, the big man is worried. Luckily, as Wal battles to regain control of his body and save his job, a naturally competitive drive to be the best will aid him in the competition. In fact, Wal is one of the only contestants who is actually looking forward to tough physical challenges.
The Biggest Loser has a reputation for pushing contestants to extremes of strength and endurance but for Big Wal it's a case of 'bring it on!'
