Rudy Pauls is the best loser!

Recently I saw an ad in the local newspaper that Rudy Pauls, runner up from a recent season of the Biggest Loser show would be speaking at the Putnam Middle School. How convenient. That is about 1 mile from my home.

My momma is a huge fan of that show. She fills me in on the details of each season. I can't watch it since it makes me cry whenever I attempt to sit through an episode.

We planned a night of it! Mom would come up, we'd have our nice sensible dinner, then go hear Rudy speak, and end it with a pajama party.

Now frankly, I do a lot of things with my mom because I know it will make her happy. She is easy to please. I could offer to take her to the dump to watch the seagulls, and she'd love it! It is that easy. So basically, I was along for the ride. I thought it'd be interesting, but it was FABULOUS! It was INSPIRING!

Kudos to someone who made a life changing decision to have a better, healthy life for himself and his family. Not only did he succeed, but he is willing to share, honestly, in order to inspire perhaps even one person.

I am a Putnamaniac thanks to having big losers like Rudy Pauls live, work, and speak in the Quiet Corner!
