FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 7 /Christian Newswire/ -- Weight loss and fitness expert, CHANTEL HOBBS, knows what it's like to live in an unfit body and feel like a loser! Having lost 200 pounds and kept it off for almost a decade, she has a message for anyone struggling with their weight: "It's time to forget about trying to be the 'biggest loser' and instead aim at becoming a smaller winner and learning how to stay that way for good!"
As a personal trainer, Chantel has often heard that NOT getting on "The Biggest Loser" was one of the best things that had ever happened to some people! Kelly Hopkins, a 40-year old Atlanta truck driver and single mom, met Chantel five years ago and was inspired to try and lose weight. After sending an audition tape to "The Biggest Loser" and being rejected, she approached Chantel to ask for help. Kelly finally began to grasp Chantel's message of ditching excuses and making better choices each day (when no one is looking and cameras aren't rolling) and her entire life and body began to transform. 100 pounds later, Kelly is getting ready to run "The Goofy Race" - a half-marathon on Saturday and a full marathon on Sunday - this weekend in Orlando, Florida.
"Shedding pounds and KEEPING them off for good is all about what you do when NO ONE is looking. Aim to be smaller and you can't help but win! It IS a New Year! Yesterday's mistakes are gone - so let them go. You can't control tomorrow, so stop worrying about it. TODAY is your opportunity to lose weight, get HEALTHY and look great. TODAY is YOUR day! THIS will be my message for everyone, whether they want to be a reality television star or not!" proclaims Ms. Hobbs.
