Healthy Fontana: 2010 Healthy Lifestyle Challenge

Release Date: December 15, 2009

The Mayor and City Council invite the public to participate in the Healthy Fontana 2010 Healthy Lifestyle Challenge. With the New Year approaching fad diets and quick weight loss regimens will become ever more popular with Americans who have not been cautious of their health during the holidays.

Fad diets and quick weight loss regimens can help people lose weight in the short term, but once they lose the weight, they typically return back to their regular eating and exercise habits. Sometimes people end up in the same position, if not worse, than they were a previously. In an effort to change this cycle, Healthy Fontana is challenging residents to commit to a healthier lifestyle in 2010 by practicing healthy habits such as regular daily exercise and improved eating habits which lead to sustained weight loss.

Register now for this FREE program by visiting www.healthyfontana.org and clicking on the “Join Now!” button. This will take you to a website where you can track your daily physical activity, fruit & vegetable consumption and your weight. Each time you sign-in to track your progress you will get a point. Once you have accumulated twenty points you will be entered into an opportunity drawing for great prizes! Sign-up today and receive a FREE incentive. The program will begin on January 1st, 2010 and will continue until December 2010. Be one of the many in 2010 to commit to a healthy lifestyle!
