Are you Ready to get Scuffed Up in Snellville and Loganville?

Lose some, win some - sound good to you? Lose the most weight and win some money that is.

Sgt. Christopher Diaz and his wife, Emily - both certified personal and group trainers - are hosting the ultimate weight loss competition for the next 90 days. The good news is that participants stand a chance to win almost as much as they do to lose.

“The biggest loser for this competition will be determined by percentage of weight lost during the competition and a $200 cash prize will be awarded to the winner,” Diaz said.

The competition opened on Jan. 12, 2012 and potential losers – or winners depending on how you look at it – have until the Jan. 31 deadline to sign up. The contest will end on April 20, 2013. The cost to register is $30. It will be run out of Meridian Park in Loganville.
