I hope you enjoyed this “tape-delayed” accounting of our Biggest Loser’s Contest which took place in January and February. What began as a New Year’s resolution challenge from Media Strategist Korena Keys turned into something as spirited and fun as an office fantasy football league without the draft night health hazards.
Most importantly, of course, Korena’s challenge also improved the health and well being of her teammates, including me.
Six months after the contest began I stepped into my doctor’s office for a regular checkup. My parents left me with many blessings but low blood pressure and cholestoral are not among them. This checkup found me 30 pounds lighter with a 50 point drop in total cholestoral and textbook blood pressure. That was a great day to be a loser.
Thank you, Korena!
