Choose to prioritize and energize.  The Dallas Regional Chamber and Live Healthy America have teamed up to offer Live Healthy Dallas to area employer teams. 

 

What is Live Healthy Dallas?

 

Live Healthy Dallas (LHD) is competition based, low-cost, turn-key and results-oriented program to help employers create a team-based weight loss and physical activity program that will help you and your teammates (employees) make positive changes that lead to a healthier lifestyle through increased physical activity and improved nutrition.  Live Healthy Dallas is part of the national program, Live Healthy America (LHA).

 

How does LHD work?

 

-         Co-workers (or friends, families) form teams that track weight loss and/or minutes of activity during the 100-Day Challenge.

-         Team members report their progress on a weekly basis through the LHD Web site – www.livehealthydallas.org.

-         Friendly competition can be fun and motivating, so check the leaderboard to see where your team ranks in the country or within your community or business.

-         Organizations motivate teams by setting goals and offering prizes and incentives for top-performing teams

-         Employers see improved employee health and decreased healthcare costs!

 

Has Lighten Up America worked for other employers?
