Great news!

GUESS WHAT??!

I’m a semi-finalist for Global TV’s Fitness Fantasy Challenge! It’s a contest that Global was promoting a few weeks ago during their morning news, and so I decided to enter (with a horrid full-body shot I took on a whim). Man, I’m so out of shape at the moment, I would love to have a free trainer three times a week… Not only would I be a lot healthier, my competitive nature would surely help me get back to my post-Los Angeles weight. I *so* miss my size 5 jeans!!

As a semi-finalist, I’m one of 12 picked to go into Global to hear more about the Challenge… I’m going in on Monday, and they’ll pick the four finalists by the end of next week! OMG… Is this my luck changing??!

YAY!

So, guys, I ask you this… How do you think I can secure a finalist spot? I really, really want this…

    Very cool!

    I don’t know enough about this contest to give you any advice, but I suspect having a clear goal in mind might help… Is there an event (athletic or otherwise) that you’d like to train for?

    Tell them you blog and you can promise to increase their viewership 10 fold. Or tell them you are training for the Sydney 2009 Masters World Games. :)

    Cool!

    Ask if you could go to the washroom during the interview. Go to the washroom, come back and pretend that you’re completely out of breathe. Or pretend that you can’t stop eating sweets during the interview and keep telling them that you need professional help.

    Are tawdry and desperate acts like flashing the judges out of the question, Tan? After all, in that situation a few extra pounds can be a big help. I think that’s where the phrase “grading on the curve” first got started.

    Happy Valentine’s Day, Tan, and good luck at getting in the contest.

    Hey Tanya congratulations… what’s the contest all about I would love to hear about it and encourage you any way I can… miss you :)

    Hey Tanya,

    Hmmm… not sure how to ‘guarantee’ that you’ll be a finalist, but I’d say – just be yourself. I’m sure that should be enough to impress them.

    Happy belated Valentine’s!

    That is SO COOL! They like people who come off as entertaining on camera. Be your usual fun, intelligent and approachable self and they’ll have no choice but to go with you. It’s all about keeping viewers interested long enough to not change the channel before the ads come on. So if you have that zing, that energy, you’re in.

    And knowing your background, that shouldn’t be a problem at all.

    Go get ‘em, Tanya!

    Congrats! That sounds like the sort of package I could use too.

    Luck changes to those who try, like you.

    show up with chocolate on your forehead telling them you can’t believe how much candy Purdy’s throws away into their dumpster every day.

    Also, wear really tight spandex shorts and a tube top.
    If you can find a pair of roller skates that would be cool. And talk in a heavy Swedish accent. And if you could work the word ‘horny’ into every other sentance, you might get the attention of the judges.

    That’s what I would do.
