As many of my family and friends know, I have struggled with obesity for some time and made various attempts at losing weight. This is my latest, and hopefully my last, attempt. I am conducting a Lose-A-Thon between now and the end of the year.  To help motivate me in my effort, I am asking anyone who will to make a pledge to donate for every pound I lose.  My goal is to lose 50 lbs before my 50th birthday in January.  I will post my progress and results along with information about obesity and hunger on this site. Any money pledged will go to organizations fighting hunger both here and abroad.  You could pledge $.10 or $10.00 (whatever you want) for every pound I lose and keep off between now and the end of the year. It will help give me the motivation to make necessary life style changes and help those who do not have enough to eat through your donations.
