Biggest Loser… for a Good Cause

By MJ

I’ve long been a fan of the Biggest Loser, it has proved to be very motivational. In past years the gym I belonged to ran a 6 week Biggest Loser right after New Years, I would achieve success but never had a real chance to win. Some of the people competing would the things necessary for short term weight loss to win, while I was trying to maintain my program for long term success. Anyway — my Mom showed me this Vindicator Article and my interest was piqued.

The Official title is: The Pink Ribbon Weight Loss Biggest Loser for a Cure. It is a 3 MONTH long Biggest Loser competition whose proceeds benefit the Boardman Relay for Life Breast Cancer Fund. Could it be more perfect? An opportunity to help myself while helping others raise money for the Cure. So now it’s time to be brutally honest with myself.. go get weighed in and share that information with the world. EEk. (When I am most open and honest about my “data”, I tend to do better…I have people holding me accountable) The final check in is May 15 during the Boardman Relay for Life.

I think the pasta basket for 3rd prize seems a bit off the mark, but I know it’s the thought and willingness to donate that counts.

So stay tuned…

I’m heading to Rocky’s now to get my official stats. Let the Games Begin.

P.S. Have you been watching the Olympics? Breathtaking!!
