Live healthier with the Pound For Pound Challenge and Kroger Gift Card Giveaway (CLOSED, Winner announced)

June 3, 2010 |  by Susan  |  All Posts, Reviews/Giveaways

We all want to live healthier,  at least try the best we can.  It can be hard with BBQs around every corner in the summer.  However summer time is also the perfect time to get out of the house and get active.

I am sure you’ve seen the Biggest Loser on TV. You have watched the contestant´s struggles and achievements, and may have even thought, “Hey, I can do that!” Instead of waiting for those  BBQs to be over and your schedule to open up, put all your excuses aside and make a pledge to live healthier with the Pound For Pound Challenge.

Now is your chance to live healthier, get in shape and help others along the way.   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 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 30th 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.

In addition, the Kroger family of stores would like to give one of my lucky readers a $30 gift card. Theres nothing better then $30 in healthy food and snacks.

Giveaway will run from Thursay 6/03 to Friday 6/18 11:59pm EST – open to all US residents – 18+
