The 50 Million Pound Challenge

Being overweight is one of our nation's top health problems, so weight loss challenges are not just created for television or the work place, but also for the entire country. Two years ago, Dr. Ian Smith, physician, journalist and author, teamed up with State Farm Insurance to issue a 50 million pound weight loss challenge to Americans. To reach this ambitious goal, participants across the country will get information and tools to take off the pounds, receive and give encouragement, as well as track progress. The process is simple, you can officially sign up, find encouragement and track your progress within their website and pick up a free Challenge kit at a participating State Farm Insurance location.

If you are interested in continuing with a weight loss challenge after the H2O program wraps up, this could be a great way to find support, information and motivation to keep shedding those pounds!
