I would like to introduce everyone to the great organization called Feeding America. They are the nation's leading domestic charitable hunger-relief organization. They provide assistance to more than 25 million low-income people facing hunger in the United States. Yes the United States. It all stays right here at home.
The Biggest Loser, The Kroger Co. Family Stores, General Mills, and a few other key sponsors have partnered up to donate up to $1,080,000 to Feeding America this year. This is your chance to lose weight and feed your community all at the same time. You can go to The Pound for Pound Challenge and pledge to loose weight. For every pound you pledge to loose, the Pound For Pound Challenge will donate 14¢ to Feeding America - enough to deliver one pound of groceries to a local food bank.
I made my pledge to loose 15 pounds. This is just the motivation I needed to loose weight. I have been wanting to loose some for some time now, but just didn't have the "want", if you know what I mean. I took a trip over the weekend to Kroger and purchased some healthy food to start me off.
I am now on the right track to loose my wight and just hope I don't fall off the wagon too many times. ;) I have a feeling I may need to keep blogging about my progress just so that I keep doing it. I need to be accountable to someone right? Why not all of you!
Now for the Giveaway!
To help you achieve your goals The Kroger Co. Family Stores, General Mills, and My Blog Spark would like to give away a $30.00 gift card to one of my readers, that can be used at any of The Kroger Co. Family Stores.
