And the winner is...

Vanessa Burns!

Congratulations on winning BOTH PDC SEASONS 1 & 2 with your amazing weight loss success!

Her Total Pounds Down: 34.7 Pounds!

AND she won $1400 worth of prize money between the two seasons she participated!

   The change we saw in Vanessa was absolutely amazing.  When she began Season 1 at the beginning of July 2009, she said that she was in the worst shape of her life, mentally and

physically.  "I've given up.  I don't want my life to be over at 40, I want to be even better than I was at 30!".  Vanessa went on to win PDC 1 with an outstanding weight loss of 15.5 pounds in 4 weeks and took home $800 in prize money. 

   The second season of PDC started mid-August and went for another 4 weeks.  Vanessa stole the show yet again with 19.2 pounds lost and took

home $600 in prize money.  Vanessa tells us, "This challenge has changed my life!  It gave me strength I never knew I had!"

Everyone at Body Evolution wishes Vanessa continued success in her weight loss efforts and we are happy to say that she lost all that weight the HEALTHY way--

Diet, exercise and a whole lot of dedication and effort!

SEASON 3 POUNDS DOWN CHALLENGE STARTS JANUARY 2010!!

We've learned a lot from the first two seasons of PDC and in light of that, we've made some changes-- The challenge will only be held ONCE per year and each season will be longer in duration (12 weeks instead of 4) which also means the participation cost has increased.  Since the cash prize is based on the amount of participants and the program fees, this means the prize will be bigger and better in 2010!  Also, since this competition is based on losing weight naturally and in healthy ways such as exercise and proper nutrition, we will disqualify participants who attempt to lose weight using any other methods during the competition.  Payment plans are available for participating individuals upon request.  We are accepting applications for the Challenge all year, so download the application here and send it in!  We will notify selected participants a week before the next season begins!
