Lose It or Lose It: FLAWLESS VICTORY

This badge can’t be purchased, only earned!

In addition to making badges, both Randy and I are programmers. Relevant to this badge, we’re both chubby programmers. We’ve tried a bunch of times to lose weight, but things always fizzled out after a couple of weeks, so we came up with a program that worked for us — take a long-term goal, break it down into one-week increments, and put actual money against reaching each goal. We call it “Lose It or Lose It”.

You can do it, too — commit to a ten-week goal, put up money against each week, then if you make all your goals, you get all your money back. And that’s who this badge is for — folks like the stern, laconic Tinta, who made all of his goals. When you achieve a FLAWLESS VICTORY, we send you one of these badges (we pay for it; you don’t pay a red cent) to celebrate.

You can’t buy this, but you can EARN it. If you’re like us, Lose It or Lose It might really work for you — I’ve lost about 30 pounds so far, and Randy has lost 45 pounds. That’s him in the video below. Look at that specimen of a man! JUST LOOK AT HIM!

So if you’re like us — you want to lose some weight, and can use a motivation strategy that works — come check out loseitorloseit.com and earn this badge.
