2013 Bariatric Foodie Pledge - Submit Your Week One Pledges!


Pledging for Week One is now CLOSED! 
If you missed it...check back on Sunday, February 10th to pledge for Week two!

It's finally time for the Bariatric Foodie Pledge! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This first week we are pledging for Click! Three Pledgers will win a canister of Click, in the flavor of their choosing!

This week we also highlight one of our grand prize sponsors: Celebrate Vitamins! Use the ad at the top of the blog to check them out!

Now...down to business.

To pledge, simply leave a blog comment with your pledge! PLEASE BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR NAME AND EMAIL ADDRESS!!! (Note, if you used the Rafflecopter widget that was on here before I probably already have your email address. I will post a list tomorrow of the pledgers for the week and I'll note if I am missing an address and you can give it then.) If you already posted a pledge as a blog post you do not need to repost it.

I've left the comments unmoderated so you SHOULD see your comment right away. But please allow time to account for extra traffic!

Please note again, because this is the first week, and Super Bowl weekend, I am giving you an extra day to submit pledges. For all other weeks I'll put out this email on a Sunday with pledges due by noon on Monday. K? But long story short, you have until Monday, February 4 at 12:00 PM EST to pledge!

And you'll want to make sure to pledge each and every week so you can win the kick arse grand prize, sponsored by:
Please be sure to like/follow them and drop them a note of thanks for sponsoring grand prizes!

So, let's get it started!!! What goal are YOU going to smash this week?

If you have any questions about the Pledge, start here. If you still have questions after that, feel free to email me at bariatricfoodie@yahoo.com (keeping in mind that I live on the East Coast and generally like to...um...sleep at night...so please allow for that in my response time). I'm happy to help!


Pledging for Week One is now CLOSED!
