ammy Walker of Custer is officially Custer County’s biggest loser, and she couldn’t be happier about it.
The Custer County Chronicle’s Biggest Loser competition wrapped up last week. Walker lost 34-1/2 pounds, or 21.97 percent of her original total weight.
For about a decade Walker had desired to lose the extra weight she had put on over the years.
“I’m pretty competitive,” Walker said. “I know quite a few people around town, so with this (Biggest Loser) competition being so public, I thought it would keep me honest.”
To lose the weight, Walker decided to follow the South Beach Diet. She also made sure to keep her level of activity up. Walker hiked frequently and did a lot of log splitting for her and her husband’s fireplace.
