Mamavation is now accepting Canadians!!!
Mamavation Moms lose weight in a boot camp experience without having to leave the home. They are set up with support, tools, and professional coaches to help transform mind and body on this journey. As they are learning healthy living and losing weight they live their lives on a stage for seven weeks. The campaign becomes a virtual docudrama with real challenges and victories as they become the stars of the campaign.
This campaign, the Mamavation Moms will receive additional support to help them meet their goals – Each Mamavation Mom will receive:
- One pair of New Balance Shoes
- Their choice of one pair of either Kalso Earth Shoes, Earthies or Earth Footwear
- An Omron Full Body Sensing Scale - Measures 5 Fitness Indicators: Body Fat Percentage, Body Mass Index (BMI), Skeletal Muscle, Visceral Fat, and Body Weight
- An Omron dual-axis pocket pedometer
To become a Mamavation Mom, an application needs to be complete, then 5 women are selected as finalists. Those finalists go up for a public vote and the two winners are announced during the Twitter Launch Party on April 30th.
You must first have the following qualifications and adhere to a couple of rules to apply.

Stop! You must complete a video application answering this question, “Why do you want to be the next Mamavation Mom AND what will YOU do to inspire other moms online?” Please keep your responses to under four minutes. As soon as you are finished, upload the video to YouTube and tag it “mamavation”, then post the video in your blog with a description of the campaign. There will also be a spot on Bookieboo to link up application videos to make sure that the Sistahood can show their support so watch for that!
After you have submitted your application, show me you are a serious contender. I want to see you ALREADY living a healthy active lifestyle and sharing that in the #mamavation hashtag. You also need to show me you have support from your friends online. You will need to lean on them some days, so show me they exist and that you ALREADY have a network of friends that care about you. Have them tweet at me the following message,
“Hey @bookieboo! I want (@insertyourIDhere) to be the next #Mamavation Mom. She has my support! http://bit.ly/aorv3Y”
For the people you know who are only on Facebook, have them post on the Mamavation Facebook Fan page and tell me why they think your would make a good Mamavation Mom.
Notifying your family and friends and getting them to support your application is a very important step. Regardless of the outcome of your application, it ensures that the people around you know you have made a step toward healthy living. Whether you become a finalist or not, they will hold you to your pledge of wanting to live healthy. (Btw, the more they tweet and facebook, the more I know they are in your corner.)
