Pounds for Pounds is a group dedicated to celebrating Life and weight loss through the support of our best friends.

"Pounds for Pounds" was born when I lost weight a few years ago. I was out buying dog food for my dearly departed buddy Bear, and realized when I picked up the 40 pound bag of food that I had lost that much weight. That 40 pounds of food that I was holding in my hands used to be what I carried on my frame everyday.

To celebrate my weight loss every month, I am donating food to a local Animal shelter, and would love to have others join my cause. There are many shelters out there that are under-funded and need our help.

Who should join Pounds for Pounds? Anyone, really! If you have some weight to lose, GREAT! let's do it together and support our shelters. If you do not have weight to lose? GREAT, join us and support our shelters. Every month I will be going to a local shelter to donate food, why not join me? A case or bag of food is really not that much, and our local shelters really appreciate the donation. If you are a Health industry professional? GREAT! Join us, there are a lot of us that have questions, and honestly, need HELP, and you too could join us by donating food, it is not that expensive and it is a great cause. What about if you are a friend or loved one of a member of Pounds for Pounds? GREAT! join us, there is nothing better to motivate someone to lose weight than being there beside that person, and supporting them.
