This contest is now closed. Congrats to Debra!!!
OK, friends, I have pledged to lose ten pounds, and I am helping to feed the hungry in the process! No, I'm not going to give away my leftovers; I'm participating in the Pound for Pound challenge!!! I hope you'll join me!!! Here's some info from the folks who are sponsoring this effort:
The Kroger Co. Family of Stores, General Mills, NBC's hit TV Show "The Biggest Loser" and other key sponsors are partnering to donate up to $1,080,000 to Feeding America this year.
Here´s how you can help:
Visit http://www.pfpchallenge.com/Kroger to make your pledge to lose weight and to get more information and to find tools to change your life for the better. It is free, easy and only takes a minute to make a change that can help you and help the hungry in your local community.
Through June 30, 2010, for every pound you pledge to lose, the Pound For Pound Challenge will donate 14¢ to Feeding America® - enough to deliver one pound of groceries to a local food bank.
As the official supplier of the Biggest Loser Ranch and partner of the Pound for Pound Challenge, the Kroger Family of Stores wants to help you achieve your goals. If you´re a fan of the Biggest Loser, you may have seen several great General Mills products featured on the show. These products, including Yoplait Greek yogurt, Total, and Multigrain Cheerios, are available at your local Kroger Family of Stores and can help you stick to your weight management plan.
So are you into it? I hope so! I know some of you are already the perfect weight, but it' a rare person that doesn't need to lost a pound or two.
Now for the contest! Would you like a $30 Kroger* card so you can buy some of the products that are featured on Biggest Loser? Just leave me a comment telling me whether or not you have joined the challenge. You don't have to tell me how many pounds you pledge to lose if you don't want to. :) I'll accept comments until Sunday, June 13, 2010 at 11:59 PM. Anyone can enter who is at least 18 years old and is not in my immediate family. Of course, you'll want to be in an area where there is a store where you can use the card! LOL You must leave me an e-mail address or some other way for me to contact you if you win!!!
I'll also let you get an extra entry for following me on Twitter, Facebook, or as a Google Connect friend. If you subscribe via Feedburner, I'll give you THREE extra entries. You must leave a seperate comment for EACH of these additional entries.
~ The Kroger Family of Stores gift card, information, and giveaway were all provided by the Kroger Family of Stores and General Mills through MyBlogSpark.
*The Kroger Family of Stores includes Kroger, Fred Meyer, Ralph´s, King Soopers, City Market, Dillon's, Smith´s, Fry´s, QFC, Baker´s, Owen´s, Jay C Food Stores, Hilander, Gerbes, Food4Less, Pay Less Super Markets and Scott´s Food & Pharmacy.

ReplyDeleteI'm not joining the challenge as is, but I am working at getting in shape. I've learned that I can't focus on weight because it just isn't healthy for me.
ReplyDeleteI "like" you on facebook. :)
ReplyDeleteJoined the challenge with a low pledge of 5 pounds. Can't take it off too fast when nursing...
