People in Warm Springs are
481 pounds lighter following
the annual Biggest Loser Chal­
lenge.
Community members and
local employees competed for

lost a combined total o f 481
pounds, 134 inches off o f their
waists, and 120.8 percent o f

the contestants had the biggest
change she’s seen yet during the
competition.
Please note: The next
deadline to submit items to
the Spilyay Tymoo is Friday,
