Weight Challenge Wins Losers
Summit County Challenge
Nets Weight Loss
Summit County's Weight Loss Challenge resulted in 86 participants finishing the three-month weight loss event. The Biggest Loser, and winner of a Cozumel vacation, lost 15 percent of her body weight.
The second place winners were a mother-son team who together lost 25 percent of their combined body weight. The mother lost 13.4 percent of her body weight, while the son lost 11.5 percent of his. They will share a night at the PNC loge at Canal Park in spring 2012.
Total pounds lost among those who finished the event: 628.25 pounds! We're planning another event for late spring of 2012. Please plan now to participate and check our website for updated information.
