Introducing the New Year's HealthBlast Challenge

Sponsored by Skyline Hospital and NorthShore

December 28, 2012

Give your New Year's resolution a HealthBlast.

HealthBlasts are short (two week) challenges to encourage positive choices.

Two weeks. How's that for a resolution you can actually keep?

HealthBlasts do not require you to shed anything. HealthBlasts don't take away from your lifestyle, they give it back.

HealthBlasts -- sponsored by Skyline Hospital, NorthShore Medical Group and Healthy People Alliance -- encourages you to add more good things to your daily routine. By putting more good things into your body, you'll be less apt to reach for the bad (you know, like another piece of chocolate fudge).

Sign up to take on the HealthBlast challenge and every two weeks, for eight weeks, you'll be presented with a different challenge. All you need to do is accept the challenge and then at the end of the two weeks, answer five simple questions.

Every time you complete a challenge, your name will be entered in a drawing to be the grand prize winner!

For more information on HealthBlasts, go to www.healthypeoplealliance.org or follow us on Facebook at Healthy People Alliance where sponsors will be providing tips and suggestions to boost your chances of success.

Tell sponsors you're game to take the challenge and they'll send you reminders of the start/finish dates.

Sponsors will be announcing the first challenge on Jan. 17 (in the Enterprise, on the website www.healthpeoplealliance.org, and on Healthy People Alliance facebook page).
