Your Biggest Loser Contest: Get Competitive and Earn Cash

In the NBC show “The Biggest Loser,” 18 contestants compete for a grand prize of $250,000. Each week, these contestants face food temptations, rigorous workouts and weigh-ins under the supervision of professional trainers. Why has this show been successful in helping overweight men and women lose hundreds of pounds? These factors make “The Biggest Loser” a success:

Begin with motivated people

Have a daily meal plan

Participate in a fitness program

Connect with others who need to lose weight

Be accountable to a trainer

Guess what? You don’t have to be on television to do these things. You can do them at home with your family, your friends, even your co-workers. My friend did a biggest loser contest at work for one month. Everyone put $25 in the pot and the winner took all.

Interested in leveraging your competitive side to help you lose weight faster? Start your own biggest loser contest by setting the stage:

1. Decide who will participate. Compete against one person or form teams. You and a partner can go against another duo, or you could have teams as large as you like.

2. Set a time limit. Will the competition last for 4 weeks? 8 weeks? 12 weeks?

3. Offer a great prize. What will the winner(s) get? Cash is always good… whoever participates can contribute $25. If you don’t want to use money, you can always offer free babysitting, meals, or house cleaning.

4. Have weekly weigh-ins. Keep each other accountable and push for success together.

Making losing weight a game introduces healthy competition, a goal to strive for, bonuses and incentives, and the list goes on.

How can people on the biggest loser lose more than 2 1/2 pounds a week?

If you diet, any trainer, or dietician will tell you that your body cannot matabolize more than 2 1/2 pounds per week in weight loss, and that everything else you are losing is either muscle or water. So how is it that on the show the Biggest loser these people are losing 20 and more pounds per week? They seem to be able to maintain a consistant amound of weight loss that is well over what trainers will tell you. How is that?

I have lost 35 pounds since July 15, 2006. That is an average of .39 pounds per day or 2.73 pounds per week. The first 45 days, my average was .46 pounds per day or 3.22 pounds per week.

So, it can be done. There are certain herbs, minerals, proteins, etc. that promote weight loss through fat burning and appetite control.

I have been using a system called Stack Body Tune Up.

If I can be of further assistance, let me know.
