NuWeigh Nutrition & Weight Loss is hosting the Ridgefield Wellness Challenge in January, encouraging individuals to effect positive change for themselves and also have a positive impact on their community. NuWeigh will be hosting educational seminars during the first week of January to introduce those interested to the program. Registration will close on January 3 and the challenge will begin on January 10.

Teams of three adults will challenge each other to a 12-week weight loss challenge. Teams can be made up of family members, co-workers or a group of friends. The entrance fee is $100 per team member. Proceeds from the team entrance fees will be a 50/50 fundraiser. The team member with the highest percent weight loss in the 12 weeks will take home half of the team’s entrance fee while the remaining half will be donated to the Norwalk River Valley Trail (Nrvt-Trail.com) to be used for the construction of the Ridgefield section of the fitness trail.

NuWeigh Nutrition & Weight Loss is a medically designed weight loss protocol that helps dieters to maintain lean body mass and focus weight loss on the fat in their body.

The usual $300 administrative fee for the weight loss program will be waived for all Ridgefield Wellness Challenge participants. There will be an initial weigh-in on January 10 to begin the program. Participants will have weekly team coaching sessions and weigh-ins at the NuWeigh office in Ridgefield, as well as access to individual web portals that offer video education focused on diet and lifestyle changes. To support participants, The Gym in Ridgefield is offering complimentary 30-day memberships to all Challenge team members. The complimentary memberships will run from late January through February.
