The Affiliate Fit Club competition is starting up, and I’m on a mission to hit my weight loss goal by Affiliate Summit 2008 West next February.
I’m starting off at the Affiliate Fit Club at 216 pounds, and my plan is to bring it down to 195.
If all goes well, I’ll look ridiculous in my tuxedo at the Affiliate Summit Pinnacle Awards next February, because it was sized up for my current frame last year.
My fellow Red Team players are Karen Garcia and Wade Sisson. We’re facing against the Blue Team: Jim Kukral, Lisa Riolo, and Wade Tonkin.
I encourage you to buy lots of cookies and stuff through your affiliate links and send the stuff to Jim, Lisa and Wade.
Keep up on the progress of all of the Affiliate Fit Club contestants at http://www.affiliatefitclub.com/. We’ll all be blogging and posting videos about our progress.
Missy Ward and Shawn Collins will answer the questions publicly within the app.
There are already a bunch of questions and answers up there. Come ask away.
