Biggest Loser Kick-off

Friday, my Wellness Team kicked off our "Biggest Loser Challenge" open to all students and employees at UNC. This is a semester long weight management and lifestyle change program consisting of bi-weekly events, weigh-ins, and team challenges. We had over 100 people apply and ended up admitting 76 contestants into the program divided into four teams: student white, student blue, employee white, employee blue. The kick-off was a 3 hour event consisting of fitness, nutrition, and body comp workshops and ended with a high energy group challenge. The energy these contestants brought to the kick-off was amazing and the team spirit/competition was already evident by the end of the evening. I can't wait to start working with these teams and get to know everyone better! Come back often for updates on this exciting challenge!
