Forever Healthy

To promote a healthy lifestyle, the Surgeon General and the American Heart Association joined USPS in dedicating the 2012 Heart Health Forever stamp.

The Heart Health stamp will be featured on an episode of “The Biggest Loser” to air on Tuesday, Feb. 14, at 8 p.m. EST. The episode also will include the announcement of a sweepstakes that promotes letter writing.

For an 11-week period, viewers are invited to watch, write and win by sending letters of encouragement to their favorite Biggest Loser contestant. Viewers may submit an unlimited number of separate letters addressed to one contestant at a time. Letters also can be addressed to previously eliminated contestants from this season. Letters will be drawn at random to win one of three prizes:

1.     Grand Prize: One week, all expense paid trip for two to the Biggest Loser Resort.
2.     Second Prize: Four weeks of Biggest Loser prepared meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) — delivered by the U.S. Postal Service.
3.     Third Prize: Tickets for two with airfare to the Biggest Lose Grand Finale that will air in May 2012.

Sweepstakes information will be available on Feb. 14 at Post Offices nationwide and at this link the day after the show’s airing: usps.com/biggestloser

“Nothing touches the heart like a letter from a loved one,” said Postmaster General Donahoe. “We hope Americans will use our 2012 Heart Health Social Awareness stamps for writing letters to loved ones and friends."
