CPRD’S HEALTHY WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM
• WHAT: Meltdown 2008 is a fun program that will help you set and attain your
weight loss goals. We will teach you how to lose weight the healthy way and how
to keep it off through lifestyle changes. This incentive program is set up not
as a contest to see who can lose the most amount of weight but who can lose it
through life style eating and exercise changes. Studies show that people who
live healthy life styles through diet and exercise have a more productive,
fulfilling, and quality life. Added bonuses to the weight loss are a plethora of
fun prizes you can win weekly and some bigger prizes at a banquet at the end of
the 10 week program. This program is free to members and only $5.00 for non
members.
• HOW: This is how it works; we weigh you and analyze your body fat (body fat is
optional but highly recommended because sometimes the scale does not always tell
you the whole story). Then we will help you to set healthy attainable weight
loss goal for the ten-week period. Each week we will set small weekly goals. At
the end of each week we will weigh you again. For each week that you make your
goal you will receive a star on our goal chart. Each week you exercised three
times you will receive another star. We will verify this by you checking in at
the front desk each time you exercise for 30 minutes or more. If you exercise an
extra two times (five times) per week you will receive another star. If you
achieve your weekly weight loss and exercise at least three times that week you
will receive a bonus star. There is a possibility of earning 4 stars per week.
For each star on our chart that you earn you will get to put your name in for
the drawings. If at the end of the 10-week session you reach you ultimate (10
week) weight loss goal and you have exercised at least three times per week your
name will be put in for the grand prizes. You will not be rewarded for losing
more than 20 pounds.
• GRANDFATHER CLAUSE: If you where in Meltdown during previous years, made your
goal, have kept the weight off, and you are at a normal to excellent body fat
you can be grandfathered in. This means you will receive a star each week for
goal weight if you don’t gain weight. You will still have to earn the exercise
stars. If your weight stays the same and you exercise you will get the fourth
star. We will also have a one-time star at the beginning for anyone whom kept
his of her weight off from the previous year regardless of his or her body fat.
There will be a separate drawing for the grandfather participants that keep
their weight goals and earn all their exercise stars.
• BONUS STARS: periodical we have handouts to try to teach sensible healthy
weight loss. In order to encourage you to read this educational material you
will be ask a question from the material. People answering the question
correctly will receive a bonus star. Remember for each star you receive your
name goes in again for drawings.
WHEN: We will start Jan. 7th, 2008. Our instructors will be available to weigh
you from 8:30am until 5:00 pm Mon. and Tues., 6:00 am until 3:00 pm on Weds.
8:30 am until 6:30 pm on Thurs., and 8:30 am until 1:30 pm on Fridays. If you
are enrolled in one of our fitness classes your instructor can weigh you before
or after the class. If these times do not meet with your schedule please call
Becky Ballew at 748-3326 ext 121. Please try to come at the official weigh in
times or call to schedule for a different time. A Meltdown official will
privately and confidentially weigh you. We would like it if you could weigh in
at the same time each week. Also it would be preferable if you weighed in your
work out clothes (NO SHOES) for an accurate weight each week.
