Welcome            

The purpose of Lighten Up Georgia is to address the climbing obesity rates in Georgia, among adults and children.  Through teamwork and education, Lighten Up Georgia's goal is to help the citizens of our state lead healthier lives by encouraging more physical activity and sound nutritional choices in their everyday lives.

Our Program

This program is a five-month friendly competition among teams of 5-10 people (friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, church members, etc.)  The teams will compete on the bases of two categories:

• Percentage of total team weight loss due to healthy, appropriate diet and physical activity

AND/OR

• Accumulated activity in the form of miles traveled (walked/run).

Upon registration, teams will choose a team captain and a team name.  All participants will receive:

• Lighten Up T-shirt

• Weekly Health and nutrition tips
