Podcasting co-hosts, Cat & Gina go on an ambitious 90 day health makeover that is sometimes painful but always entertaining!
What is Project Muffin Top? I'm glad you asked. It started as a competition between Gina and Cat to see who could lose the most weight in a healthy way with a team of experts behind them. It evolved into both girls throwing out the competition and working together with Heather Morgan, nutritionist and creator of the Muffintop Makeover, and her husband, EA Morgan, fitness expert and owner of EA's CrossFit.
For those who aren't in the know on Pop Corny Podcast, it is cohosted by lifelong friends, Cat Smith and Gina Panelli. Both have been through good times and bad together, with the bad times apparently ending up on their hips. And bellies. And double chins. Do I need to continue?
For 90 days, Cat and Gina will do everything Heather and EA suggest. The goal is to not only come out the end thinner, but healthier and with a solid knowledge of how to choose and eat food, and how to keep the human body working properly. Filmmaker Elizabeth Fitz-gerald will follow them around and document the journey, first through episodes on YouTube, and ultimately, with the help of Kickstarter.com, a documentary.
We want to share our journey to inspire and motivate muffin tops around the world to take this journey as well. Hopefully, the show will educate but it most certainly will entertain. The money raised through Kickstarter will help us upgrade our equipment, get the necessary healthy supplies to complete the 90 days, and help promote and market the project. Lose your ever luvin' muffin with us and the documentary that will come from Project Muffin Top!
