Pledge to Maintain a Healthy Weight *Giveaway* Published on Monday, May 31, 2010 by

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Barbara W.  Congrats!

Now that summer is nearly here, I’ve been actively cutting back on calories and getting out and about with the kids to lose the rest of this baby weight.  Weight is one of the most sensitive issues a woman will face and it’s one of the most difficult to approach head on.

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.  Have you ever watched The Biggest Loser?  Every time I watch it, I’m inspired, challenged, and motivated to do something about my excess weight. The only problem is, I always save it for “tomorrow.”

TODAY, you and I can make a pledge to lose weight and help those in need of food around your community. Now through June 30, 2010, the Pound for Pound Challenge will donate 14 cents to Feeding America for every pound you pledge to lose.  While hard to believe, just 14 cents is all that is needed to deliver one pound of groceries to a local food bank.  You can make your pledge on the site for free, along with finding tools (exercise videos, recipes) to help you achieve your goals.

The Kroger Family of Stores is the official supplier of the Biggest Loser Ranch and has partnered with the Pound for Pound Challenge.  Some of the foods used in the show to help with weight loss include Yoplait Greek Yogurt, Total, and Multigrain Cheerios.

Win It! One of you will win a $30 gift card to the Kroger Family of Stores (which can be used at 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.  Simply leave me a comment with your pledge!  Comments will close on June 15, 2010 at 11:59 PM PST.  One comment per person, please (unless you do the extra credit). US residents only. Duplicates and comments not including the above information will be disqualified. Comments are moderated. If you don’t see your comment in a reasonable amount of time, send me an email. Bloggers and non-bloggers may enter. If you don’t want to leave your email address, please be sure to check back for my announcement on the winner. Please note that winners must respond within 48 hours of being announced/contacted or another winner will be drawn. Want an extra entry? Do any or all of the following and receive an extra entry for each one.
