The Biggest Loser - Portland Style
My friend Cav and I both religiously watch The Biggest Loser and chat through it. This week while watching, she had a great idea - let’s bring The Biggest Loser to Portland!
So, have you ever watched The Biggest Loser and thought “I wish I could do that!” or even felt jealous that the contestants were so supported by their peers to lose weight? Now nothing is stopping you!
Who can join? You can! Your friends can! Your co-workers are even invited! The more people who join, the better it will be for everyone!
What: A “let’s make Portland healthier” campaign - lose some of your body weight, gain more muscle mass, learn to cook great tasting healthy foods, climb 18 flights of stairs without passing out! Essentially this is a contest with prizes (cash, a makeover and a photo shoot) to those who lose the greatest percentage of weight.
When: At the first of the year, Portland’s own version of The Biggest Loser is set to begin. There will be approximately 90 days worth of competition (January through March) in hopes of making these life-long habit changes, not just a temporary fix up.
Where: Here. Portland. Our town. Our town that is slowing becoming more and more unhealthy.
Why: to get in shape, to tone up, to find some fitness buddies, to improve your life and to change your current habits.
