Let’s PAR-TAY!

Come join us for a Twitter party launching the 6th campaign of Mamavation on October 18th from 5pm to 7pm PST (Mountain Standard Time: 6pm to 8pm, Central Standard Time: 7pm to 9pm, OR Eastern Standard Time: 8pm to 10pm). We are changing lives one mom at a time and are excited to do it again! And on October 18th during the party, the next two Mamavation Moms will be announced and they will enter into @bookieboo‘s virtual healthy living boot camp for seven weeks. We will also have giveaway winners organized by @Resourcefulmom. Use hashtag #mamavation for the party. (You have to be present to win!)

Mamavation is a weight loss campaign and social media experiment brought to you by Earth Footwear, SUBWAY, The EA SPORTS Active & Chefs Requested. The Mamavation campaign is a unique movement in social media. Not only does it support two moms (Mamavation Moms), it also supports the first virtual healthy living sorority in social media called “The Sistahood.” The Mamavation Moms are put though a 7-week healthy living bootcamp. The will receive a professional nutritional plan created by Cynthia Pasquella, a fitness program created by Tracey Mallett, and weekly coaching by Pete Cohen. They will also receive two pairs of Earth Footwear, weekly family meals at SUBWAY, an EA SPORTS Active, Tracey Mallett and Tae Bo DVDs, a Gruve, and weekly Chefs Requested steaks for family meals. Their lives become a virtual open book with twists and turns and real life challenges they must overcome. The purpose behind the campaign is to inspire moms all over the internet to live a healthier lifestyle and share those experiences with their families. The program is managed by @bookieboo, Leah Segedie, who has successfully lost over 170 lbs. herself and kept it off for almost a year. She is no stranger to hard work and overcoming challenges in weight loss as a mom.

How can you help? Well, I’m glad you asked. We need help promoting the Mamavation campaign and twitter party. You can tweet about the party and show us the love. Below are example tweets. (This will also enter you into the giveaway, but make sure to leave a comment below.)

Give our Sponsors some PROPS!

Earth Footwear is the official sponsor of the Mamavation campaign. Earth Footwear is perfect for moms who want to save time. According to a study, people that wear Earth Footwear burn 4x more fat than those who don’t wear Earth Footwear. The secret is in the technology. Earth Footwear uses Kalso ® Negative Heel Technology®, a unique inclined sole that positions the toes 3.7º higher than the heels. The slight angle shifts weight subtly back over the heels, and can help strengthen and tone the body while also burning calories. So if you can’t get to the gym, put on a pair of Earth Footwear and go about your normal routine. The shoes will do the work for you. OR if you want better results with your workout, put on a pair of Earth Footwear to really kick the fat burning into high gear!

The other official sponsor of the Mamavation twitter launch party is SUBWAY. SUBWAY restaurants have long been recognized as a health leader in “fast food.”  In fact, they were healthy before it was “cool” to be healthy as proved by their menu–it’s basically stayed the same since 1965 with a simple selection of lean meats, fresh vegetables and bread.  Half of their sandwiches are low in fat, saturated fat and cholesterol, and you won’t find any partially hydrogenated oils in any of their menu items either.  And now SUBWAY has introduced breakfast to their menu. YUM!

On September 21, SUBWAY invited Mamavation to run with Jared in NYC.  Jared is training for the NYC ING Marathon on November 7th as his commitment to staying fit and healthy. We got to run with him through the city and this is what transpired.
