on Mar 8th, 2010Congratulations to our Pay it Forward Winner, David Sheets!
In case you haven’t heard, we’re Paying it Forward by helping one deserving winner through a complete nutrition and exercise makeover over the next six weeks. The applications poured in, we narrowed it down to three finalists, and have finally have decided on our winner. Congratulations to David Sheets of Alpharetta! He won the popular vote of our community, as well as the votes of everyone here in the studio.
Perhaps he was the clear winner because David has been Paying it Forward himself for quite some time. He volunteers as a ministry counselor, facilitates a Christian financial course, and started an animal rescue organization. And this volunteering all happens in his “spare time” when he’s not running his own business (which requires some 40,000 miles annually on the road in the metro Atlanta area) or spending time with his four kids.
David wants to be healthy and fit, mostly so that he can be around for his kids. His 40th birthday is coming up. He understands he’s on the fast track toward heart disease and diabetes and wants to “stop the train” before it gets out of control. His goal is to run at least six races this year and compete in cyclocross events. David is looking for help changing his eating habits in a healthy way, but in a way that also works with his on-the-go lifestyle.
We can’t wait to get David started toward his new healthy lifestyle. We’ll be sharing his journey with you, so please join me in congratulating him and cheering him on!
