Final Day for Pound for Pound
Today is the final day to report your weight loss results with the Pound for Pound Challenge. For every pound you have lost, General Mills will donate a pound of food to Feeding America and their network of over 200 food banks.
Currently, one in eight Americans finds hunger a struggle. By reporting your weight loss, you will be helping to feed thousands of low-income families and individuals. In today's economic crunch, more and more people are finding themselves in a pinch when it comes to putting food on the table.
Waiting until the last day to report out, I was hoping to shave those last few pounds before today. I am sad to say that I did not reach my original goal, though I do feel good about the weight I have lost. While I didn't hit my initial goal, I have lost those holiday pounds and then some, my clothes fit better and I feel healthier overall. This challenge was just what I needed to motivate myself into getting fit.
And it doesn't hurt the feel-good factor to know that I have been a part of feeding people in need.
