Who should become a member?

Pound for a Pound is designed to supplement any weight loss program on the market today.  Pound for a Pound is for everyone who wishes to lose weight - whether 10 pounds or 110 pounds - it matters not. Statistics show that over 2/3 of our population is overweight.  Recent studies show that there is a 98% failure rate when it comes to permanent weight loss meaning less than 2% of people who lose weight, will actually keep it off for 5 years or more. Whether you are currently losing weight or maintaining a recent weight loss, it is imperative to align proper support, motivation, and purpose to your weight loss efforts.  Pound for a Pound is a must if you are serious about permanent weight loss!

Who do you feed?

WHAT

What is Pound for a Pound exactly?

Pound for a Pound is a weight loss initiative that focuses on two global epidemics:  OBESITY and STARVATION. We build a bridge of hope between both extremes.  We help you lose the weight once and for all by helping you focus on solutions. We offer immediate, hands-on support in the areas that are sabatoging your weight loss efforts.  We aggressively take you on a journey of health from the inside out.  For every pound you lose, Pound for a Pound sends one pound of food (or $1) to the feeding project of your choice.  You lose the weight; we feed the kids.  It's that simple!

What makes membership with Pound for a Pound different than membership with other online programs?

It's FREE!  While there's an abundance of online weight loss programs, Pound for a Pound is unique in every way.  Pound for a Pound doesn't focus on the shallow fad diets or magic potions or pills.  In fact, we don't focus on dieting at all. Statistics prove there is an obesity problem of epidemic proportion.  People need a solution.  Pound for a Pound offers solutions that are real, authentic, and life-changing, but most of all, the opportunity to turn your problem into a provision.

WHERE

Where are your feeding projects located? 
Our primary feeding projects are focused in Africa.  The HIV outbreak has heightened the crisis in that area of the world, and our partnership with World Vision enables us to get maximum yield per pound.   Our secondary feeding projects are in America's most desperate places.  Our work with Second Harvest is just beginning.  We are excited to see the impact right here at home.

Where do groups meet? 
Groups meet anywhere and everywhere.  All it takes to form a group is three people committed to the same thing - turning weight problems into provision for countless starving children.  Groups can form at work, church, civic groups, neighborhood, or online. Everyone must be accountable!

WHY

Why should I join Pound for a Pound? 
The better question is why wouldn't you join Pound for a Pound.  Pound for a Pound takes your weight problem and turns it into provision for children everywhere that have no hope.  Pound for a Pound supplements any weight loss effort. We offer state-of-the-art support and motivation at a fraction of the cost you'd expect to pay.

HOW

How much does it cost? 
An annual membership with Pound for a Pound is absolutely FREE! Join us each week for our teleconference call on Thursday Mornings at 11am PST.  

  

How does the overall feeding process work? 
Each new member sets up a personal database online. Each member chooses a feeding project. As people login personal weight loss each week, Pound for a Pound tallies the totals and cuts a check to World Vision quarterly at $1/pound lost. 

We keep you posted on how your projects are doing and how your weight loss is contributing!   We chose feeding projects with the highest yield due to government grants and matching fund programs.  Currently, our projects feed kids at a ratio of about 10 to 1.  About ten kids are fed for every one pound lost.
