Top winner loses 6.62% total body fat in 8 weeks.
mySKiN&CO’s latest Fat-Loss Challenge was a success. Tuesday 12th July 2011 was the last session – where the results and the winners were announced.
Marion had the greatest percentage of total body fat lost at 6.62%. Marion lost a total weight of 4.8kg and total centimetres loss of 17cm. In second and third place were Philisienne, who lost 5.57%, 4.4kg and 30cm, and Alison who lost 5.01%, 3.5kg and 21cm.
The Fat-Loss Challenge is a NEW concept and FUN group programme that meets weekly for 8 weeks. It is a healthy competition among participants who have similar weight loss goals. The fact that participants are weighed every week, makes the Challenge a success. However the focus is on losing not more than 1 kg a week – and to make sure that the participants are eating healthy and losing fat and not muscle or just water content. The Challenge’s focus is on educating participants on good nutrition for life while feeling part of a fun Community Event! The classes, which are presented in a fun way, include information about reading labels, going shopping, boosting metabolism, burning fat, exercise tips and staying healthy. After the 8 weeks, the participants are equipped with enough knowledge and awareness to make healthy choices with regards to food, and exercise. Hence, the weight would stay off, since this is a permanent lifestyle change.
The Fat Loss Challenge starts with a body composition analysis, where each participant’s body fat is analyzed together with their BMI (metabolism) and muscle mass. Body Measurements are taken, and a nutrition analysis is done. By analyzing each individual’s results, a programme (including exercise recommendations, customized meal plans and body treatments) is then customized according to participant’s body type, goals, health background, food likes and dislikes, lifestyle and budget to achieve a healthy weight. As the weeks progress, the programme is evaluated and adjusted accordingly so that each participant is ensured success.
I am proud of all the participants in this challenge and hope they are encourage to continue their healthy lifestyles and share their successes with others. mySKiN&CO supports the commitment to make improvements in health and achieve fat loss by healthy eating and exercise.
Marion, the winner with the greatest percentage of body fat lost, received an Environ Advanced Vitamin Skin Therapy (a luxurious and result driven moisturizer). The second and third place winners received Protein Powder and Protein Snack Bars.
