Challenge obesity: take the '50 million pound challenge.

50 million pounds may be the weight of a T-Rex to a five year-old, but it is also the seemingly outrageous number of pounds that Dr. Ian Smith, (author of ‘The Fat Smash Diet'), has challenged Americans to lose collectively. Coined, The ‘50 million pound challenge’, this national diet mission is sponsored by State Farm Insurance, and has attracted an outstanding number of participants eager to shed a few pounds.

Free of charge, the challenge brings face-forward the obesity epidemic which is responsible for a bulk of health problems that plague an ever-increasing number of Americans. With a vibrant webpage featuring plenty of encouraging literature, the option to join a team, a personalized ‘update your weight’ page, and a sentimental blog, the 50 million pound challenge is geared towards education and information. Also offered are many resources to assist the interested and motivated weight-loss seeker in becoming a successful participant in the challenge, including a ‘Challenge Kit’, which you can pick up at any local State Farm Insurance Agency.

We’ve all heard of weight loss plans before; but with the fame and popularity of the 50 million pound challenge, no longer is the individual alone in his/her efforts. This challenge is a healthy and fun alternative to the sometimes 'bummer' a personal weight loss plan of action can be.
