Sign Ups Have Been Postponed
Fat Chance Sign Ups have been postponed until further notice.
We ran into some problems concerning UTSA guidelines as far as the method in which we were planning on paying out our Prize Money to our Fat Chance Winners...According to UTSA guidelines we fell into the category of "Gambling"
We are sorry for the inconvenience, We were very excited about the competition and were looking forward to helping out a lot of people get started with their workouts and diets.
Obesity is a Major problem in the U.S. and San Antonio and we were just trying to do our part in order to start making some much needed changes.
Thank You for all your support and great feedback and please keep checking back with us to see what our next step is
we are currently working on some ideas in order to still hold the competition legitimately with the support of UTSA officials.

Fat Chance
Fat Chance
Our goal is to encourage others to fight the fat and lose weight. We want to help those who need to lose weight, lose it and keep it off. We are focusing on the University of Texas at San Antonio, students and faculty, in order to create healthier lifestyle here at UTSA. We are a group of three, Joe, Mikael and Chance, who see obesity as a growing concern here in San Antonio. Therefore we intend to help those who are willing to help themselves lose weight. We are modeling ourselves after "The Biggest Loser," which means there will be prizes for the individuals who lose the most according to the BMI scale. So please help yourself and sign up for this game, all you have to lose is weight. We are happy to answer any questions to the best of our ability and be sure and check us out on Facebook at "Fat Chance at UTSA 2010."
