Attention Women – Challenge Yourself to Become Nutrition Savvy in 2004; Nutrition Challenge Takes Focus Off of Losing Weight, Concentrates on Health and Wellness

Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) December 26, 2003

Jan 1st ushers in the New Year along with the same old resolution – to exercise and lose weight. Millions of women make the pledge, yet the yearly promise typically fades as swiftly as holiday decorations. Mealsmatter.org, a non-commercial Web site sponsored by the Dairy Council of California, will launch the Nutrition Challenge on Jan 5th as a way to keep women motivated to meet their health goals.

The Nutrition Challenge is a web-based, four-week program that helps participants design a healthy living routine that fits their needs, works on their timetable and requires no participation fee. The Challenge does not focus on weight loss or stringent exercise, but instead on how to develop healthy habits that contribute to overall well-being. Over the four-week period, participants will work toward completing nutrition goals one-of-a-kind to their individualized needs. Interactive tools will help participants develop realistic fitness goals, learn about key nutrients and foods special to women’s health, plan meals and discover healthier ways to prepare favorite foods.

The Nutrition Challenge starts Jan 5th and continues through the week of Jan 26th. A new nutrition topic and corresponding activities are introduced apiece week.

Week 1 – Getting Started – Assess nutrition and activity position and create realistic goals for change

Week 2 – Top Foods for Women – Learn what foods and nutrients are ideal for health

Week 3 – How to have More Time and Still Eat Healthy Meals – Discover how a tiny meal planning goes a long way in a busy schedule

Week 4 – Save Time, Save Money – Shop Like a Pro –Find out how to store food safely and shop efficiently

Structured to fit busy lifestyles, women can register anytime during the four weeks and complete the online activities from previous weeks. To join the Nutrition Challenge, log on to http://www.mealsmatter.org and complete the registration form. Those who complete all four weeks are eligible to win a $ 200 grocery coupon.

Meals Matter – http://www.mealsmatter.org – is a non-commercial website supported by the Dairy Council of California staffed by registered dietitians and dedicated to promoting healthy food choices for families.
