Registration is OPEN: Way to a Better Life 2020

We are excited to announce registration is now open for the 2020 Way to a Better Life Competition!

This year’s competition has been refined to more strongly teach and help you develop long-term habits that will lead to ongoing weight loss and better health. It now includes opportunities to improve your health through developing better sleep habits or enhancing brain function and confidence. And it has been expanded to include an “Independent” weight-loss track (in addition to the “standard” track) that allows more flexibility, is less expensive, and requires fewer weigh-ins.

As in previous years, the top 3 males and females will be awarded for weight-loss (for independent and standard tracks) and point totals (for the standard track only). With the new competition format, the top performers in fat percentage loss will be awarded, everyone who finishes the competition will receive a finisher t-shirt, and additional prizes will be given for weight loss achievement. The competition will include opportunities to attend presentations and receive e-mails to learn more about weight-loss and health. Sign-up with a friend/family member for a discount.

As part of the competition, you will receive an 8x11 booklet with health information to guide your efforts. For those in the standard track this will include specific weekly challenges that you will earn points for completing. You will also receive a biometric screeing (blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose levels) at the beginning and end of the competition, and body composition analysis monthly during the competition.  You can win great prizes! And above all, you can improve your health and learn valuable lessons on your way to a better life.

Online registration is now closed.
