Paying it Forward: My Plan to Donate $50 for Every 10lbs I Lose

I can't think of a better way to both give back to my community and stay accountable on my journey than to donate $50 to No Kid Hungry for every 10lbs of weight that I lose. My goal would be to ultimately donate $250 for 50lbs by the end of January 2018. It's an aggressive goal to achieve in only 7 months -averaging out to losing just over 7lbs per month - but I think it's possible.
No Kid Hungry is a fantastic charity that helps launch school breakfast programs, recruit summer meals sites, and empower families to shop for and prepare healthy meals. It also provides grants to the most effective hunger-fighting organizations across the country to help them end child hunger in their communities. In many places, just $1 can provide a child with up 10 meals.
Not only am I hoping to defeat some of my personal demons when it comes to food, but I'm also hoping to help the 13 million children in the US who struggle with hunger.
You don't have to wait for me to lose the weight to help either. Go to their website and donate today to be part of the solution!
