I can't find it in my dictionary. Since I've been on the program, and that has been for the past year, I have never known of the program to have contests. They do give gifts sometimes for consistent attendance - - last summer it was a beach towel and in the winter it was a tote bag. Neither contained a pelt of anything. Besides, I need the type of support that the program supplies to lose weight and I appreciate the plan they provide - it's balanced, varied and meatless. Marlaine
