The Kosciusko Chamber of Commerce and The Biggest Loser teamed up to get Kosciusko moving.

Participants received guidance from Biggest Loser celebrities, including Dolvett Quince, in an online wellness account that delivers activity, nutrition, motivation and fun.

The Community Challenge had 80 participants that tracked health practices, such as their diet and exercise, for eight weeks. The top five teams at the end of the eight weeks included Flab-u-less Four, Team Get Fit, Fit and Mighty Mamas, Good Excavating, and Skinny C.O.W. Each week there was a maximum amount of points contestants could receive

Five participants reached the maximum amount of points for each of the eight weeks; Robin Wentz, Tammy Adamiec, Tracy Moyer, Michelle Hollar and Sarah Fox.

Several prizes were presented by drawings from names of participants who met weekly goals. Prizes given included a $25 American Express Gift Card to Tracey Akers, a Polar FT60 Heart Rate Monitor, Ashley Wentz and David Cook, and a Fitbit Zip to Tracy Moyer

The Kosciusko Chamber wants to congratulate all those who participated and look forward to each person continuing on with their new healthy lifestyles.
