I’d like you to meet my identical twin sister Imrana. To answer some of your burning questions: Yes we are so identical that for the most part you have to know us pretty well to know which of us is which, Yes I’ve had many random conversations with people who thought I was my sister and I just didn’t have the heart to tell them otherwise… And No unfortunately we cannot telepathically communicate (I know you were dying to know the answer to that question).
Anyways, Imrana has always weighed more than me, being anywhere between 5- 55# heavier than me through out our adult life while I’ve always remained about the same weight through out mine. But what does this have to do with science experiments you must be asking? Well, the fact that we are identical twins means we have the exact same genes (which is precisely why scientists love doing twin studies and) which means we have the exact same “metabolism”.
Here’s another fact, as you can see from the customary before and after pics, I taught Imrana how to reactivate her metabolism (the very same metabolism I have) and lose all that extra weight in just 6 months ! I know I kind of fast-forwarded to the end so let me rewind a bit, as I mentioned earlier, unlike me, Imrana had always struggled with her weight. In fact, she had tried everything under the sun for over 10 years before she came to me for my advice, at which time she was the heaviest she’s been and was wearing between a size 16-18. She didn’t like the way she felt and even worse she often had to face being compared with yours truly, who’s always been a size 2-4 – NO FUN! So we were both really excited when she was finally able to get back to the weight she was at 16. That’s not all, I’m happy to report that since then she’s had 2 beautiful babies and was able to quickly return to her normal size 4-6, without anymore help from me BTW.
