CABOT — Usually, people who lose something do not win a prize, but one Cabot woman won $100,000 for losing weight.
After several years of hard work, Rebecca Privitera has lost 221 pounds and recently won $100,000 from Beachbody, the company that developed P90X, Insanity and other fitness products. She was one of two winners of the 2013-2014 Beachbody Challenge, and she received her prize at the annual Beachbody Coach Summit in Las Vegas.
Privitera said she grew up overweight, and when she tipped the scale at 381 pounds in May 2011, she decided to make a change.
