A new incentive to be good.

I went to my Weight Watchers meeting on Saturday as I always do, and our leader announced that WW is running a special campaign from September 7th through October 18th called Lose For Good. For every pound lost, WW will donate a pound of food up to $1 million dollars to Share our Strength (an organization that makes sure no child grows up hungry here in the U.S.) and Action Against Hunger (helping hungry people globally). Isn't that fantastic? So it's a total win-win situation - you lose weight, get healthier and help those in need become healthier, too.

So if I'm down just one pound at my next weigh-in, I can contribute to this cause. If I didn't have a reason to ramp up the exercise, I certainly do now.
