Lighten Up SA

01 Sep 2008 - 31 Oct 2008

Lighten Up SA is a team based challenge designed to encourage small, achievable and positive changes that will kick start a healthier lifestyle.

Not only will you feel better by losing 5 kilos during September and October 08 and have a new attitude to life, you will be supporting Diabetes SA to continue their work against diabetes.

The objective of Lighten Up SA is to create an environment of support for participants. By being part of a team, being sponsored by family and friends and continual encouragement from Diabetes SA - there are multiple factors for maintaining an individuals motivation for improved health.

Prizes and other special offers will also be used as an incentive for those reaching their weight and fundraising goals.

The message is “small changes over a long period of time” as being the only way to sustain a healthier lifestyle and prevent disease, particularly type 2 diabetes.
