Precision Nutrition Awards $50,000 in Prizes To Body Transformation Contest Winners

Sport-U20



Toronto, ON and New York, NY (PRWEB) December 16, 2011

Precision Nutrition, the planet?s leading online nutrition coaching and certification company, today announces the winners of its latest $ 50,000 body transformation contest.

?This choice was really, really tough,? said Precision Nutrition Chief Science Officer John M. Berardi. ?This last round of the Lean Eating Coaching Program bent some of the most outstanding transformations ? physical and lifestyle transformations ? I?ve seen in my entire life.?

Last week, Lean Eating coaches Krista Schaus and Jason Bonn criss-crossed the continent to surprise the male and female grand prize winners with two generous $ 10,000 checks and capture the event on video. Forty two runners up shared an additional $ 30,000 in prize money.

The women?s winner is Toni Bauer, 36, of Chicago, Illinois. She lost 46 pounds and now weighs 139 pounds. Toni went from 29.4% body stout to 16.1% body stout in the year-long online Lean Eating Coaching program. She also went from a 39 inch waist measurement to 31 inches.

Toni is thrilled and says: “I reckon that I will be processing my Lean Eating journey for a long time to come. Throughout my life I have drifted towards a healthy lifestyle and then back away from it.”

“This is the first time I feel like I have really made an internal shift. In particular, I learned about self forgiveness. Perfection is not achievable. It?s an unrealistic goal that used to leave me paralyzed into inactivity. Even my marriage has become better throughout the year. My husband and I now have a common goal around making an background in our home that reflects and supports our active lifestyle.”

The men?s winner is David Sell, a 31 year-ancient high school football coach from Houston, Texas. He lost 82 pounds and now weights 240 pounds. He went from 24.8% body stout to 12.9% body stout. And his waist size went from 55 inches to 39 inches.

Coach Sell calls the mental shift he experienced ?phenomenal.? He says he is not dieting. ?My relationship with food has changed. This is the way I am choosing to live my life.?

Coach Sell says the largest change has been mental. ?I have permanently been told that it?s OK to be huge. I was an offensive lineman so being a huge guy was an essential part of the job. I am not that same guy anymore. I want to be lean and fit for the rest of my life.?

Coach Sell thanked his own Lean Eating Coach, Jay Bonn, for helping him identify and overcome underlying eating issues. ?What I learned is that there will be ups and downs by the side of the way. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Lasting change takes time, I did not get stout overnight so my journey to the lean and fit body that I will have will not occur overnight as well.?

You can read more about all the winners and the Lean Eating Coaching Program on the Precision Nutrition website.
