The date has
been set: Weigh-ins for the Fourth Annual Get Healthy UAMS Summer Slim Down
begin Monday, June 1. The 13-week weight-loss contest, where winners are
determined by the percentage of bodyweight lost, has resulted in weight losses
totaling more than 3,600 pounds and we believe this year will produce results
greater than any we've seen before! Plan to take part in what we hope will be a
record-setting year as we aim for ONE TON of total weight loss by UAMS employees
and students. Once again this year's overall winner will have their choice of a
home treadmill, elliptical or exercise bike. Prizes will also be awarded to
those placing second and third in the individual category and the top three team
category winners. Increase your chances of winning - start recruiting your team
and planning your own support strategy now and get a head start on the
competition. Participants who provide us with email addresses will receive
support from weekly email tips and goals as well as reminders of our weekly
meetings. These meetings are informative, fun and will help you stay motivated
and focused throughout the contest. Both scheduled and impromptu weigh-ins will
also be held to encourage and reward those who stick to their plan along the way
and participants who meet certain weight loss requirements at these weigh-ins
will receive prizes.
