"Fit in Six" Intro...

It's just what it sounds like--working towards feeling fit and healthy in six weeks. There are certain rules (listed below) and you earn points by eating right, exercising and in general taking care of your body. Each week you total your points and email them to us, we will post the top three each week. The top three persons who have accumulated the most points at the end of 6 weekswill take home "the pot."

Everyone puts in $10 towards the pot. The winner will take home 50% ofthe total pot. 2nd and 3rd place take 15% of the pot each and the remaining 20% goes towards mini-competitions held throughout the 6 weeks (gift certificates, cash, etc) For example, if 20 people did"Fit in Six" there would $200 in the pot. The winner would receive $100 2nd & 3rd $25 each. Not too shabby for eating right and exercising! Because everyone has good and bad weeks everyone has the chance to take home the pot. The best part of this program is it's all done over the internet, so we can live around the nation and all participate.

The program will run from Sept 10-October 22. We need to know by Sunday September 9th if you'll be participating in the program and need the $10 by Friday September 14th. The last program just finished up, weight loss results ranged from 5 lbs-15 lbs for those who participated. Aside from weight loss some found it was a great way to kick old habits (drinking too much soda, not exercising) and realizing the need for fruits and vegetables. It's a great way to get healthy, get up & get moving and enjoy the process with a whole group of people striving to do the same thing.

This blog will be used as a method of communication for all the "Fit in Six" participants (including us!). Questions, comments, suggestions, getting to know each other better, etc. It's a fun addition to the next round of "Fit in Six."

Just email us at fitinsix@gmail.com to let us know you're in! Recruit friends if you'd like, the more the merrier...and the more competitive it gets!! When you email us we'll let you know the address for the $10 and send you hard copies of the rules, point tracker, etc. Let us know if you have any questions!!!
