Its win-win all the way around.

For the past six years Dr. Lous Weight Loss Challenge has helped hundreds of people lose thousands of pounds. In 2013 participants will pay $ 50 to enter. Of that $ 50, $ 15 will go toward classes and diagnostics. $ 5 of every entry fee will be donated to The Center for Grieving Children. The other $ 30 will be put toward the winnings. The cost will rise $ 5/day after January 1, and all additional fees will be given back to the winner(s). There are three categories. Greatest percentage of original body weight lost, greatest transformation, and new for 2013, the family category. In 2012 a family of four that participated lost a total of 180 lbs and under the guidance of their medical doctors, they were able to come off all of their medications.
